Not for the first time, LIV Golfers dominated the PIF Saudi International with Josele Ballester claiming his maiden professional title at the Asian Tour event among a host of players from the circuit in the chasing pack.
As well as the Fireballs GC player, who won by three, other LIV Golfers in the top 10 of the leaderboard following the final round at Riyadh Golf Club were Caleb Surratt, Dean Burmester, Richard Bland, Lucas Herbert, Jason Kokrak, Branden Grace and Tyrrell Hatton.
Meanwhile, the relegated Anthony Kim, who claimed his first top-10 finish for over a decade at the tournament, placed T5, eight shots back of Ballester.

Immediately outside the top 10 were four more LIV Golfers, Marc Leishman, Paul Casey, Charles Howell III and Cameron Tringale, with David Puig, Tom McKibbin and Peter Uihlein all finishing in the top 20.
Abraham Ancer, who won the title in 2023, placed T33, while 2022 winner Harold Varner III finished tied for 50th on seven under.
Despite plenty of strong performances from LIV Golfers, it wasn't a successful week for all those in the field.
The defending champion was Joaquin Niemann, but he missed the cut, along with more big names from the circuit including Cameron Smith and two-time winner Dustin Johnson.
