In a nail-biting conclusion to the 2024 LIV Golf Houston tournament, Carlos Ortiz emerged victorious, capturing his first LIV Golf title at the prestigious Golf Club of Houston. Ortiz delivered an impressive final-round 65, clinching a one-shot win over Poland’s Adrian Meronk with a total score of 15-under 201.
The Houston native, Patrick Reed, and Spain’s rising star David Puig finished tied for third, just two strokes behind Ortiz. This win not only marks a significant milestone for Ortiz but also showcased the fierce competition within the LIV Golf circuit.
Ortiz’s triumph earned him a substantial $4 million from the $20 million purse, adding a prestigious title to his career and solidifying his place among the elite in the sport. Despite the high stakes and intense competition, LIV Golf events like this one do not contribute to the Official World Golf Ranking points, keeping the focus solely on the thrill of the game.
In the team competition, the Cleeks made history by securing their first-ever team victory, taking home $3 million. As the LIV Golf season continues, fans eagerly anticipate more electrifying performances from golf’s top talent.
