LIV Golf crowned a first team champion to bring the controversial Saudi-backed series to a close at Trump National Doral on Sunday, declaring the inaugural season a huge success and vowing to come back bigger and better next year.
The 4 Aces captained by Dustin Johnson collected the winner's prize splitting $16 million, which was just part of a whopping $50 million pay out that saw even the last of the 12 teams pocketing a $1 million for a single round of golf.
Johnson had said that it was the competition, not the money, that excited him, but the former world number one and Masters champion cashed in anyway, finishing top of the LIV money list with more than $35 million from just eight events (including an $18 million bonus as the season's individual champion).
