Ripper GC skipper Cam Smith – fresh off a quarter-final bye – laid the foundations for a sizzling semi-final showdown against Sergio Garcia’s Fireballs outfit at the LIV Golf Team Championship in Dallas.
In a major coup for Australian golf, 2022 Open champion and captain of LIV Golf’s Ripper GC, Cameron Smith, will headline the 2024 NSW Open Golf Championship from November 14-17.
With a stunning 10-shot turnaround, Marc Leishman launched up the LIV Golf Andalucia leaderboard with a stunning second round on Saturday – providing a ray of hope of reeling in runaway leader Anirban Lahiri.
Cameron Smith has shown plenty of fightback during a hot and windy first round at LIV Golf Andalucia after a sloppy start at the famed Valderrama course in Spain.
Receiving invites were Australia’s Lucas Herbert, Dean Burmester, Adrian Meronk and David Puig. Two of those players – Herbert and Meronk – are also inside the top 100 of the OWGR.
Like the biblical Samson, Cam Smith’s power is in his hair. Cutting it off right before the Masters is a real no-no for the LIV Golfer looking for his second major victory.
Fans can now attend the highly anticipated tournament dressed in League or team supporter gear with LIV Golf merchandise now available for purchase online – a first for fans in Australia and New Zealand.
Australian golf’s worst-kept secret has all but been confirmed with News Corp publishing a photo of Lucas Herbert wearing Ripper GC colours alongside team captain Cameron Smith in Mexico this week.
Cameron Smith’s Ripper GC had a Sunday to forget in Singapore as another face familiar to Aussies – American Talor Gooch – created LIV Golf history at Sentosa Golf Club.
