This was LIV Golf’s third event of the season, in Hong Kong, and it started a stretch of three consecutive tournaments in three different countries. At Hong Kong Golf Club, where they’ve played for three straight years, they played for the usual $30 million with the winner taking home $4 million and the winning team splitting $3 million.

Those winners .... Jon Rahm and Dustin Johnson's 4Aces squad.

Rahm shot a final-round 64 to cruise by three shots over Thomas Detry. The Spaniard shot 23 under for the week, capped by a second-round 62, to claim his third LIV Golf title. Detry and Thomas Pieters, who was in solo third, are both on the 4Aces team and powered them to an easy team victory. Johnson and Anthony Kim are the other members of that team.

Rahm remains in the top spot in the leagues standings, now having finishes second, second and first in the first three events. His lead over Elvis Smylie is nearly 200 points. Kim is in third. He tied for 31st place in Hong Kong in his first event since his historic victory a few weeks ago in Australia.

To start the week, however, there was news bigger than just a golf tournament as eight players were stuck in the Middle East and unable to get to Hong Kong because of airport closures following strikes by the U.S. and Israel in Iran. Those players—Lee Westwood, Laurie Canter, Sam Horsfield, Adrian Meronk, Thomas Detry, Caleb Surratt, Tom McKibbin and Anirban Lahiri—found their way to Hong Kong and were all able to play.

Up next: Singapore and South Africa each of the next two weeks.

Here’s the rundown of what each player earned this week in Hong Kong.
