LIV Miami Course: Trump National Doral Golf Course
This is not a cupcake course as it’s 7600+ yards, and there is water on almost every hole. The fairways are pretty narrow so wayward tee shots will be punished.
Last year only 21 golfers finished under par, and I would expect a pretty big gap between the leaders and the guys at the bottom.
The Par 5’s are pretty long with two of them being over 600 yards, and there are two Par 3’s that are 225+ yards so birdies are tough to come by, but there are plenty of bogeys out there.
Accuracy and distance off the tee is going to be key as wayward first shots will lead to brutal second shots so expect the best drivers to be at the top this week.
LIV Miami: The Field
It’s the standard LIV field, but several players will surely be looking towards next week’s Masters.
I expect them to play well though as they don’t want to be going into Augusta in bad form, and with the tournament being over on Saturday, they’ll have plenty of time to get to next week’s event.
Golfers Playing The 2024 Masters

LIV Miami Top 10 Predictions
Head To Head: Abraham Ancer -110 vs Sergio Garcia
Garcia certainly looks like he’s lost the competitive edge since joining LIV, and he only has one good finish this year and that was 2nd at Mayakoba.
Since then he’s finished 27th, 15th, and 38th, and Ancer has finished ahead of him in all three of those events. Both guys weren’t good here last year, but I’ll take Ancer who is in better form against Garcia who is probably looking ahead to next week.
Team Winner
Legion and Smash have won two events and the Crushers have won the last two events and they have a commanding lead in the team points race so I would keep riding with them at +300.
Torque would be a good one to sprinkle as well as they’ve finished top 5 in every event in the team points so they will surely get their win soon. I would put 1 unit on Legion, and 0.75 unit on Smash.
LIV Miami Outright Winner Prediction
Cameron Smith at 14-1 is a solid look as he was in the playoff at the last event, and he won this event in 2022 so anything in double digits feels like a great price to me.
He has an 8th and a 2nd this year, and surely he’ll get a win this season, and why not the week before The Masters when his focus might be a bit more dialed in.
Talor Gooch at 16-1 is a guy I’ll take a shot at as he’s 6th in player standings, and finished 2nd and 6th before last weeks 21st place finish.
He was a respectable 12th place finisher here last year, and with him not being invited to The Masters, I could absolutely see him wanting to show he can compete with the Augusta invites.
