Joaquin Niemann has been one of golf's biggest headlines as of late with his performance this season. The Chilean golfer has his eyes set on clinching LIV Golf's Individual Championship at the end of the season.
However, he may not have to wait until the end of the season to do so. Instead, he has a solid opportunity at hailing the Individual Championship trophy at this week's tournament in Chicago.
As per the current Individual rankings, Joaquin Niemann leads the list with 206.80 points, while Jon Rahm trails him with 169.16 points. Bryson DeChambeau sits in third place with 136.24 points.
Mathematically, Niemann has two ways to seal in the deal at the Boilingbrook Golf Club. He would need a mere 2.37 lead over Rahm this week, providing that Bryson DeChambeau does not win. The other way would be for him to win this week's LIV Golf Chicago.
According to LIV Golf, Joaquin Niemann has an 84.12 percent chance of winning the Individual Championship, while Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau have a 15.70 percent and 0.18 percent chance, respectively.
