The millionaire figure that Niemann and Mito Pereira earned for their victory in the third appointment of the LIV

Orlando will be marked on the calendar as the event where Torque GC added their first victory in the LIV. A tournament where two of the four members of the Spanish-speaking team fought for the individual title, allowing them to finish first in the team aggregate by a single stroke.

The two players who helped the most for this were Sebastian Munoz and Mito Pereira , who finished second and sixth respectively. David Puig and Joaquín Niemann, meanwhile, finished in 26th and 33rd position. This prevented Talaganto’s man, captaining the team, from being part of the triad of final lap scores that count towards the aggregate.

It is that in the LIV, the way to find the group scores is as follows: each day, the cards of the three best players of each team are considered, whose balances are added together to find the total. In the case of Torque, they went 36 under over the weekend, one shy of Smash GC, the team of individual champion Brooks Koepka. While Mito still counted for the result, Niemann was left out on Sunday.

But that’s no problem for him, since he’ll still receive the Millionaire’s Award that Torque GC won for first place in Orlando. In total, they will receive three million dollars, which are divided into equal amounts . Each player will total $750,000 for the Tag Team Championship. Just over 595,000,000 pesos.

Of course, it must be clear that this sum is not everything, because golfers also receive money for their individual results, which makes the profits after three days of competition brutal. Mito Pereira, for example, will have to add to these 750,000 dollars, other 887 thousand dollars for his sixth place in the general table . In total, it will be necessary to accumulate an amount of approximately 1.6 million dollars.

Nearly four times what he earned for his third place finish in the PGA Championship and more than a third of all the money he made during his time on the North American circuit. In national figures, Pirque’s will add to your bank account a total of 1,271,824,000 pesos . Over a billion pesos for three 18-hole courses.

Niemann, meanwhile, will receive a smaller, but also multi-million dollar check. in life when you finish in position 33 of a tournament, you receive 150,000 of the North American currency , earning the two-time PGA winner a slice of $900,000 from Orlando. Just over 700 million pesos.

If the question already extends to how much money they won in their three LIV tournaments in 2023, the answer is truly shocking. Mito Pereira racks up winnings of $2.63 million (almost $2,100,000,000 Chilean pesos) and Joaquín Niemann of 1.57 million of the North American currency (about 1,250,000,000 Chilean pesos).

Shocking figures if you think that the money that Mito collected (without having won individually) in these three events is greater than that given to the champion of the Augusta Masters, the most important tournament in the world of golf. This is the reality of LIV, a factory that delivers millions. As if it were little, there are still 11 dates left in 2023.
