"What a disaster"; “Well done Patrick Reed” – Fans react to 34-yo winning LIV Golf Dallas 2025

LIV Golf Dallas 2025 concluded with Patrick Reed dramatically clinching the title. The veteran golfer edged out Jinichiro Kozuma, Louis Oosthuizen, and Paul Casey to win the league’s first-ever four-way playoff.

On Sunday, June 29, the former Masters champion entered the Maridoe Golf Club with a comfortable three-shot lead. However, the lead slipped towards the end of the day as he shot a 3-over 75 due to five bogeys and just two birdies. Nevertheless, he managed to enter the four-way playoff alongside Kozuma (68), Oosthuizen (68), and Casey (72).

While it was a four-way playoff, Patrick Reed needed just one hole to seal the victory with a birdie. This is his first win on the LIV Golf circuit and his first professional win in four years.

"Good to see he didn't completely choke like a dog. His competitors in this minor league event kind of gave it to him. He does not deserve to be on the Ryder Cup team," this fan commented.

"Surely he makes the Ryder Cup team?" one fan remarked.

"He just won an exhibition golf tournament. Can’t win a major championship, or even compete against a real competitive field. 🤦🏼‍♂️" one user opined.

"I'm surprised that he hasn't won more but the PGA tour misses Patrick and many others playing on LIV," one fan posted.
