Round 1 Highlights | LIV Golf Dallas 2025
just five regular season events remaining and teams jostling for position before the season ending team championship in Michigan This is Phil Mickelson’s second shot at the first
Oh that’s really good there from the rough Bryson will be next at the first from well behind the green
So from this range normally he’d be trying to hit this at 15 mph but he’s going down and up to that rough again Imagine he in his mind he’s looking at 20 m an hour just to get it on and then it’s going to die down about 5 feet on the green as he’s done this perfectly This is beautiful
Yeah that’s a wonderful touch More than like would not have chipped any closer than that Caleb Serat left it short of the fourth green This was DJ’s third shot at the second a par five Remember he chipped in for birdie at the first That avoids the embarrassment of putting P Reed at the 12th 447 yd par4 What a beautiful shot This is a seven iron into a right hole location Ball slightly above his feet Wind off the left His approach This one is shaping nicely That’s a nice little kick
Beautiful shot [Applause] [Music] Oh boy John Rom is going to have to check his for ticks after this What a shot Oh what a shot from that lie Jason Ko rack second shot at the ninth Ball well below his feet Stone dad And here’s one of those guys that is searching for that precious spot in the open Dean Burmaster at 17 knocks one in I get why Phil hit iron off the tea It’s the widest part of the fairway he’s hit into but
it’s a long way back Tom
Yeah it’s close to 200 y He’s got a six iron May have overdone it It has to hang on Oh it’s going to be good Let’s take you to the green at three here at Merido Golf Club just outside of downtown Dallas And a man who lives in Great Vine only 25 minutes away is Bryson Dambo Second shot at the third is quite lovely Meanwhile at the sixth John Rob that was for Eagle Now what is Patrick Reed doing over at 13 kind of on the downs slope in the rough here That’s his third shot Oh wow What a piece of imagination to be able to bump that into the fringe and anticipate that kick left David Poo he is in the lead here in Dallas This was for Eagle at seven So he is four under par This fifth hole causing some problems for a couple of golfers in this group including Cam Smith This is his fourth Drove it in the water Of course he did that Phil out the fifth and time for him to get on the birdie trail here The next four holes present good birdie opportunities especially after he’s found the fairway here on the fifth [Applause] This is the fourth and it’s a par four and will happen with his third shot An awkward angle Oh that’s very well played DJ has one to tie the lead at six Chose to lay up here Looks good BJ ties the lead with David Poo Dan Ogal tree is 49th The first spot below the dreaded line That was for Birdie at 17 He’s two under which is at the moment good for fifth and that would save his skin for this year Yuben Jang that was for Birdie at 18 playing his first season and he’s level par and that will be good for 15th place and some crucial points as well Oh Terrell Hatton with a great two putt there at seventh for birdie action from across the golf course here at Merry Dome just outside of downtown Dallas Richard Bland isn’t defending his US Open senior title this week because he wants the points to finish top 24 this season in the live golf league That would guarantee him a spot in the league next year and he is in a tie for second place That was his T-shot at 14 Graeme Mcdal same hole That was for Birdie for GMAC who tied for second last time out in Virginia Danny Lee this is his second shot into the third Nicely done by Danny Lee
This is Bubba for birdie out at 17 This is Harold Varna The third second shot at 18 already Three under par Just one back for the individual lead of his captain Dustin Johnson But for how long give himself a real opportunity there to tie the lead And he makes it to join Dustin Johnson his four races captain on four and a half
Lucas Herbert his third shot at 13 Oh what a touch Whilst that was happening Bubba Watson for Birdie at 18 up the hill there and then breaks down and over He didn’t did he what a putt Thank you my adoring public
We have nine holes down We have nine to play on day one of Live Golf Dallas The 11th T and Bryson must be a hard shot for him He’s going to have to hold this one but he doesn’t like to do That right pin The wind’s pumping up the right right now And that’s going to take it Oh he did He held it straight Looks really good Wow Beautiful Go in Oh Well he’s used to making holes in one in Dallas but over his own house on YouTube Well Abraham answer has crept into contention not only here at Live Golf Dallas but perhaps for that final exemption into the open which seemed massively unlikely at the start of play He’s down in 19th place in the overall standings He made Birdie at 11 Birdie at 12 Roll this in for Birdie at 13 So three straight Aans though what a move from 19th currently into fifth as David Puj fades after a great start That’s beautifully done for Eagle at the second and Patrick Reed is three under par alongside Bubba Watson among others This is for eagle at two and he’s contending once again the range goes captain but it’s answer and varn who lead the way and this is just awkward enough for John Ram coming across this little shoulder that is in the back
Yeah David
to the green
Yeah it’s that mount like just going to move the ball so far right He’s going to go almost 90° left He’s got a new putter in the bag this week Need enough speed to get through that fringe [Music] Oh right in the center of the flag stick too This is Ian Palter who is four over for his round but he would have enjoyed this moment for Eagle at seven And that drops in the side door for Pulks Our leader is Harold the third who
even if he wins he’ll have fewer points than Sergio
Harold always has interesting footwork You’ll see his right heel It kind of kicks over late His footwork is very good but it is unusual there Always does the same thing Another wonderful shot
He leads the field here in Dallas by a shot at the fourth hole
Bubba with his second picked that one cleanly off the turf Oh an edge further to the left That would have hit the center of the flag stick He contended till late on in Virginia last time out and he’s tied for the lead here in the first round in Dallas That was for Birdie at the fourth Okay at six this was Harold Varnner trying to make par or birdie rather
92
successfully Harold leads by two Shot a little easier for Carlos likes to cut it It’s been cutting the last few months Had a low little cut in there and probably started started just left of the flag for him Trying to hold it in there Probably still will fall left though Wind’s as strong as it’s been all day How about to 16 over par a team that have three players including Carlos Ortiz in the top seven of the season rankings Great shot
Thank you Hatton at 15 Beautiful shot Just clipped the top of the slope in front of him Just took some of the speed off it
while all that was going on This was Anerban Liheri at 13 and he gets it to three under It’s a familiar face in the top half dozen of the leaderboard Abraham Ana has climbed back to within one of the outright lead This was for Birdie at 18 a few moments ago He teed off earlier at the fourth Well John Ram’s got it to three under palm He says to make this season a success he needs to win at least one Live Golf League title rolls that in for Birdie at 17 and John Ram is three under Harav Varnner is third at the par five seventh Nicely played
So for the time being at least Harvard at seven for a two-shot lead Beautiful HB3 six under par Patrick Reed the HT [Music] lovely shot [Applause] Louie is level par This was his fourth into the 13 That’ll do nicely Singer are in fifth spot A Bouncer is just a shot behind This is his third shot at the par five second Well played So a big moment here for Harold Varn the third This for Par No So a 67 to open things for Harold Van the third His first and only bogey of the day comes on his final hole the ninth We have a three
So Harold Bar the third and Patrick Reed a pair of four aces dealing a decent hand on the opening day Both five under par They lead John Rahm by a single shot Abraham answer He double boged his final hole uh to end three under par Bryson Shambo Disappointing closing holes for Bryson but he’s in contention on level par after an opening round of 72 Little further down Sir Troll Hatton two over par for him And Bubba Watson well he’s had a horror end to his round Seven over for his final five holes of the day after being in the joint lead at one stage [Music]
Reed and Varner each shot 5-under 67s at Maridoe Golf Club to emerge as co-leaders on the individual leaderboard while also fueling the 4Aces to the commanding advantage in the team competition.
