Among the 19 LIV Golfers in the Open Championship 2025 field, only eleven made the cut. Bryson DeChambeau was the best performer from the circuit and the only one to finish inside the top 10.

Royal Portrush witnessed some great performances from veterans as well. Lee Westwood made a late surge on Saturday, shooting a record 29 on the front nine, while Phil Mickelson went bogey-free on the final day.

In this article, we take a look at five players from the Saudi-backed circuit who had a memorable run at the Open Championship.

When Bryson DeChambeau left the course after shooting a 78 on the opening day, he wouldn’t have thought he’d end the week as a top-10 finisher. What followed over the next three days was an incredible recovery.

DeChambeau fired a 6-under 65 on Friday to make it inside the cut line. He followed it up with a third-round 68 before carding a low 64 on Sunday to tie for 10th. This marked his third top-10 finish in the majors this season.


2) Tyrrell Hatton (T16)

Until the final round, Tyrrell Hatton was arguably the best-performing LIV Golf player at the Open Championship. The star Englishman shot 68, 69, and 68 in the first three rounds and was in contention for the title.

However, Hatton carded a 72 in the final round to finish tied for 16th at 9-under. Nevertheless, he remains one of only two golfers from the Saudi-backed circuit to make the cut in all four majors this season.


3) Dustin Johnson (T23)

Dustin Johnson entered the Open Championship after missing three consecutive cuts in majors. He began with a 73 in the first round, but rounds of 69, 67, and 69 over the next three days rocketed him to a T23 finish at 6-under.


4) Jon Rahm: (T34)

Jon Rahm had another decent week at the majors, although it wasn’t as strong as he might have hoped. He shot 70, 72, 69, and 70 over the four rounds to finish tied for 34th at 3-under.

Rahm is the second LIV Golf pro, alongside his Legion XIII teammate Tyrrell Hatton, to make the cut in all four majors this season.


5) Sergio Garcia (T34)
