Bryson DeChambeau grabs 2-stroke lead at LIV Golf Miami
Bryson DeChambeau used a 2-under-par 70 through difficult, windy conditions to take over the pole position at LIV Golf Miami on Saturday at Trump National Doral. 'I'm up for anything,' DeChambeau said. 'Whatever it brings me, I'm up for the challenge. It will be a great test tomorrow.' DeChambeau, seeking his third LIV Golf individual title, crushed a 400-yard drive to secure a birdie on his first hole of the day. The reigning U.S. Open champion added birdies on Holes 5, 16 and 17 to counterbalance two bogeys and finish his day 5 under for the tournament, two strokes ahead of the competition. 'What a test of golf out there,' DeChambeau said. 'This golf course, every single angle just produced the most testing golf shots out there that I've seen in a long time.' No other Crushers GC teammates finished the day among the Top 14, though the Crushers are in a tie for third with Fireballs GC, each within three strokes of Ripper GC in the lead. 4AcesGC is second. The Fireballs, seeking their fourth consecutive tournament title, are well represented by Sergio Garcia, who is alone in second place at 3 under after a 1-under round. His day featured birdies on Holes 1, 3 and 10, as well as bogeys on 6 and 17. 'It's just a difficult golf course,' Garcia said. 'It's the Blue Monster. That's just not a name; it comes with something. You have to respect it.' Ripper GC's Marc Leishman also shot 1 under to forge a three-way tie for third place at 2 under for the tournament. He's tied with Patrick Reed (75) and Phil Mickelson (73). 'I started off very poorly; I was 3-over through three and lucky to be that,' Mickelson said. 'I was able to hang in there, fight back and had a chance to shoot even par, which was amazing.' Jon Rahm fired a 2-under 70 to get to 1 under for the tourney, tying him with Dean Burmester (71). Dustin Johnson (75) is a stroke back in eighth place. Charl Schwartzel (75) and Cameron Tringale (72) are tied for ninth one stroke over par. Field Level Media 2025 - All Rights Reserved

DeChambeau takes lead as Blue Monster menaces top golfers on windy Day 2 at Doral
Bryson DeChambeau has described the Blue Monster as 'a test of patience' a few times this week. Sergio Garcia expressed his awe Saturday, feeling fortunate after shooting 1-under-par on a sunny but windy afternoon. 'It's the Blue Monster. That is just not a name,' Garcia said. 'It comes with something. You have to respect it.' The famed course at Trump National Doral can be incredibly tough to navigate, and perhaps never more so than the second round of LIV Golf Miami on Saturday. The cards certainly reflected that. Lucas Herbert's 3-under was the best score of the round, and only two golfers — DeChambeau and Jon Rahm — were 2-under for the day. DeChambeau closed strong with birdies on the 16th and 17th holes and heads into the final round Sunday atop the leaderboard at 5-under. Garcia, who lost last year's LIV Golf Miami on the second hole of a sudden-death playoff, is two shots behind DeChambeau. And a trio — Phil Mickelson, Mark Leishman and Patrick Reed — is tied for third at 2-under. Reed, who teed off the second round leading the field by two strokes after a first-round 67, bogeyed five of his first nine holes Saturday. DeChambeau called it one of the toughest rounds in LIV Golf's four-year history, noting, 'This should be No. 1. If not, it's right up there.' Despite that, DeChambeau said he enjoyed the experience. 'What a test of golf out there,' he said. 'There was so many times out there where I felt like par was the best number it could possibly be out on that hole, 14 being one of them. I don't know how anybody birdied 14. No. 11, I mean, that's a tough hole to birdie. 3, don't know how anybody birdied that. I almost did, but still. This golf course, every single angle just produced the most testing golf shots out there that I've seen in a long time.' The Blue Monster swallowed Dustin Johnson in his final two holes Saturday. Johnson, who after shooting a 69 on Friday said, 'This course is very demanding, and I've always liked it,' bogeyed No. 17 and then triple-bogeyed the par-4, 468-yard No. 18. He finished with a 75, plummeting to eighth in the individual standings. The key to DeChambeau's successful round, which included four birdies, was his ability to remain steady. He recorded only two bogeys — on No. 4 and No. 11. 'There were a few holes where I could have lost it, gone the other way, and I would have been back at even par real quickly,' DeChambeau said. 'Today was a testament to, 'OK, I'm not doing my best, but let's get the ball in the hole and let's give ourselves another shot on the next hole.'' Patience also benefited Garcia, who had two bogeys and three birdies. The 45-year-old Spaniard said his round of 71 'felt like a 6- or 7-under par in any other conditions.' 'Very pleased about the way the day went,' Garcia said. 'I felt like other than a couple of swings here and there, I played really, really well. I hit a lot of great shots on very challenging conditions, even tougher than [Friday]. 'It's funny because this morning, I woke up and I told my wife, Angela, 'It looks like there's a little bit less wind today.' And then I got here and I was like, no.' DeChambeau's team, Crushers GC, and Garcia's team, Fireballs GC, are tied for third in the team standings at 12-over entering the final round. They're one stroke behind 4Aces GC, captained by Johnson, and three behind Ripper GC, captained by Cameron Smith. Fireballs has won three consecutive tournaments. 'It's really hard out there,' Garcia said. 'For four guys to keep it together on this golf course the way it's playing, it's very difficult. But like I said, I'm very proud of all of them. They're all amazing players and even better people. We'll give it a shot [Sunday] and see what happens.' Crushers, which won the team title at Doral in 2023, has three top-five finishes this season. 'It's already anybody's game without the wind. Then you add 20-mile-an-hour winds out here, yeah, it's going to be a toss-up,' DeChambeau said. 'But I know my guys are gritty. I know they fight for every shot. I'm looking forward to them playing some good golf [Sunday].'
