On Sunday, Dean Burmester won LIV Golf Chicago in a dramatic playoff over Jon Rahm, crediting his wife's 90K ultra marathon run that struck a chord.

The threesome making up the final group at the final day at LIV Golf Chicago were each seeking their first win of 2025. One of them, a rookie, was seeking his first professional win anywhere.

The big-hitting South African won on the first playoff hole against John Rahm and Josele Ballester. Burmester made a birdie three, while the other two golfers made par-four on the 18th. All three men finished at nine-under-par after their regulation three rounds.
