LIV Golf Andalucia 2024 Course: Real Club Valderrama
This course is one of the top courses in the world, and is probably the best course in Spain. It’s a short course at 7000 yards at a Par 71 so expect scores to be pretty low on paper, especially since the three Par 5’s are pretty short.
It’s a beautiful course that has tree-lined fairways, and while the trees aren’t too close to the fairway, if a player sprays a shot too wide left or right, their next shot will absolutely be blocked by trees.
There are quite a few bunkers around the greens, and some narrow fairways, but if players are generally accurate off the tee, it should set up short, and easy approach shots into big greens that won’t be too difficult to navigate.
There are some really cool bends and doglegs in the fairways, so visually it really is a cool course to watch, but from a difficulty perspective, I don’t see much trouble. The weather looks to be beautiful so I expect a winning score to be -10 or lower.
LIV Golf Andalucia 2024: Outright Winner Predictions
Joaquin Niemann +1000
This feels like a great course for Niemann as he should be licking his chops at what the approach shots will look like. He has five Top 5 finishes on the LIV Tour this year, and finished 2nd at Nashville in the last LIV event. On a course that will require a low score to win, him shooting 62 in Round 3 at Nashville shows he can go really low.
Jon Rahm +700
Rahm can’t compete with the best in the world on the PGA Tour anymore, but he’s been knocking on the door for his first win on the LIV Tour as he’s finished 10th or better in every event outside of the WD.
He should be healthy, and recovered from his infection and he’s coming off a 3rd at Nashville. He’ll have to improve his putting, but if he gets it going on these easy greens, he’ll be near the top of the leaderboard.
LIV Golf Andalucia 2024: Head-to-Head
Louis Oosthuizen -134 over Cameron Smith
Cameron Smith clearly doesn’t care about the LIV events the week before a Major as the week before The Masters he WD from Miami, and the week before The US Open he finished 48th at Houston, and those are his two worst finishes of the year.
Oosthuizen has seven finishes of 22nd or better in nine tournaments, and if Smith throws in the towel like he normally does at events the week before Majors.
LIV Golf Andalucia 2024: Top-10 Prediction
Jon Rahm -145
I took a sprinkle on him to win, but playing Jon Rahm Top 10 is a must. As noted above, he’s finished 10th or better in every event outside of the one he WD from with the foot infection.
There just aren’t a lot of guys who can consistently finish ahead of him, and he’s coming off a Top 3 finish in the last event.
