LIV golfers talk about the team pairing at LIV Golf Adelaide

He explained that since they’re close, they know when to talk and when to not, and playing better together helps them build momentum. Pereira also said, “We had a really good round of trying to push ourselves as a team.” On the other hand, the all-Australian team, Ripper’s GC, only liked it for the opening day.

Matt Jones stated that it was “perfect” to be paired with his teammates. However, he further said that it would be better if they played separately for rounds. He said, “I think it’s a little bit more comfortable for us to be playing against the other guys.” March Leishman chimed in that it’s even better to play with pros who have the same score as them.
