Jon Rahm wins third straight LIV Golf Individual Championship

Jon Rahm has secured his third consecutive LIV Golf Individual Championship, clinching the season-long title with one tournament remaining. The Spaniard confirmed his victory despite a disappointing final round at the LIV Golf New York event, which concluded on August 9, 2026, at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in New Jersey.

Rahm finished the tournament in a tie for 41st place, carding a final-round 5-over 76 to end at 8-over par for the week. This result was his worst finish in his LIV Golf career. However, thanks to a dominant start to the season that included two victories and three runner-up finishes in the first six events, Rahm had built an insurmountable lead in the standings. His performance in New York earned him 6.1 points, bringing his season total to 938.44 points.

His closest rival, Bryson DeChambeau, also struggled in New York, finishing in a tie for 38th and earning 6.8 points. This brought DeChambeau's total to 719.40 points, leaving him 219.04 points behind Rahm with only the final regular-season event in Indianapolis remaining. Since tournament winners receive 200 points, DeChambeau can no longer catch Rahm.
