The LIV Golf Invitational Series successfully concluded its first event at Centurion Club recently. Moreover, there were plenty of surprising results in this 54-hole event. The final day looked slightly one-sided as Charl Schwartzel was leading the event by an enormous margin. Therefore, even after having a bad day, Schwartzel won the event by a stroke. 

Additionally, even on the team side of things, the winner was crystal clear as Stinger GC finished the event with a score of -20. Furthermore, the next team on the leaderboard is Crushers GC, who finished with -6. Hence, this shows how dominant the Stingers were throughout the event. 

The Stingers have Louis Oosthuizen as their skipper. Moreover, they had Charl Schwartzel, Hennie Du Plessis, and Branden Grace, who finished first, second, and third, respectively. Therefore, they managed to win the team format with ease. So here’s the complete team leaderboard for the LIV Golf Invitational round one.

So there are 12 teams on the field, with each team having its captain. Moreover, these captains choose three players through a draft format and set up a team for the week. So each team has four players, including the captain.
