Sergio Garcia is chasing his third LIV Golf title at the ongoing tournament in Chicago and has taken an early lead. After his first round, he spoke about his overall performance in the season, saying that his form is not quite where he needs it to be.
The Fireballs GC captain won one LIV Golf tournament this year but has had only three other top-10 finishes in 11 starts. During a post-round press conference at Bolingbrook Golf Club, he revealed that he has been working on “all parts” of his game but has yet to see some major changes.
“It still feels like -- today I felt like I hit the ball pretty much as well as I hit the ball at the beginning of the year. It just feels like a couple little things here and there, a couple little breaks here and there would be nice once in a while. It feels like it's struggling to happen a little bit,” Garcia said.
Speaking on his performance in the round, the one-time major champion acknowledged that he was able to roll in “a couple nice putts.” He added that although it was a “tricky day,” he was very pleased with how he played.
Sergio Garcia opened his round at Bolingbrook Golf Club with a bogey on the first hole and a birdie on the next. He fired two more birdies and a bogey on the front nine and then shot four straight birdies from the 11th to 14th holes.
After two more bogeys and a birdie on the 18th, Garcia carded a 4-under 67 and shot to the top of the leaderboard. He is now tied for first place with 4Aces GC’s Dustin Johnson.
