2026 LIV Golf UK tournament – Herbert record win

Entities: Lucas Herbert · Bryson DeChambeau · JCB Golf & Country Club · Ripper GC · Ripper Golf Club (Ripper GC)

Overview

Australia’s Lucas Herbert dominated the LIV Golf United Kingdom event at JCB Golf & Country Club, Rocester, posting rounds of 61, 66, 69 and a final‑day 62 to finish at 30‑under‑par (258), the lowest winning total in LIV Golf history. He held a four‑stroke lead after three rounds and withstood windy conditions on Sunday to secure a six‑stroke victory over England’s Tyrrell Hatton (24‑under). Herbert also set league records with 30 birdies and 32 combined birdies and eagles. The win marked his second individual LIV Golf triumph of the 2026 season, following a victory in Virginia earlier in the year, and he credited his confidence to a strong showing at The Open at Royal Birkdale. His Ripper GC squad captured the team title with a 52‑under total, four strokes ahead of Jon Rahm’s Legion XIII squad.
