Tom McKibbin, although he impressed the public with his first three performances at LIV Golf, it seems that the adventure in Singapore will not be particularly successful for him. The 22-year-old who shocked the world by joining LIV Golf did not excel during the first day in Singapore, considering that after a three-over-par (74) he is 11 strokes behind Dustin Johnson.
Competing in Riyadh, Adelaide and Hong Kong, the 22-year-old recorded 15th, 7th and 6th place. He made progress from tournament to tournament, but now it doesn't seem like he can make such an important step.
Tom is currently 11th.
Dustin Johnson has a three-shot lead over Sebastian Munoz. The score of 63 amazed golf fans, and in a press conference, Johnson explained how it all looked from his perspective.
Playing in Hong Kong, the American golfer was still injured, finishing the tournament with a 64.
I couldnt turn my head to the right, Johnson said, as quoted by Irish Independent.
I kind of just pulled when I was on the through swing, so I was hitting everything left. It wasnt a whole lot of fun.
Swung it really nicely on Sunday. Obviously, the body loosened back up and I could hit the shots that I wanted.
Dustin Johnson talks about his performance:I put a lot of work in the last couple of days
Regarding his current performance, the 40-year-old said he has been practicing a lot in the past few days, especially with his putter. It seems that it has finally paid off.
"I put a lot of work in the last couple of days on the putter, and it paid off.- he concluded.
Whether the great golfer can keep up the pace until the end is still unknown, but the advantage he has could be a guarantee of his success in this tournament.
It is certain that if he stays healthy going forward, we can expect impressive performances from Dustin.
