MIGUEL TABUENA capped an up-and-down stint at LIV Golf Adelaide with a one-over 73 as he finished joint 44^th at the Grange Golf Club on Sunday.

Mr. Tabuena mixed an eagle, three birdies, two bogeys and a pair of double bogeys as he lost momentum after a solid 69, 71 and 71 in the first three rounds of his debut tournament as a LIV Golf Wild Card player.

The Filipino ace netted $88,500 (around P5.1 million) for his showing in Australia, the second event of 2026.

Before earning full-time status in the lucrative circuit this week, Mr. Tabuena played as sub for the 4Aces team of Dustin Johnson in the season-opener in Riyadh, where he shared 48^th.

Anthony Kim, whose signing with 4Aces prior to the Adelaide stop opened a permanent spot for Mr. Tabuena in the Wild Card roster, pulled through with a remarkable comeback triumph.

Trailing by five shots to begin the final round, Mr. Kim sizzled with a nine-under 63 to blitz past Jon Rahm and the other stars en route to his first pro win in nearly 16 years.

Mr. Kim finished at 23-under to reign supreme again, leaving Mr. Rahm (268 after a closing 71) in his wake. Bryson DeChambeau (71), Tyrrell Hatton (67) and Peter Uihlein (68) shared third spot at 271s. — Olmin Leyba
