Torque GC Leads LIV Golf Adelaide Power Rankings After LIV Golf Riyadh Runner-Up
📖 Full Retelling
After an exciting week at ROSHN Group LIV Golf Riyadh, the golf world's attention turns to Australia to play arguably the most anticipated event on the schedule in LIV Golf Adelaide. The tournament will be played at The Grange Golf Club for the fourth consecutive year. The course is a par 72 measuring 7,111 yards. The first three editions of the event featured birdies in bunches. Last year, however, the course firmed up for a difficult test. Here are the power rankings for LIV Golf Adelaide for all 13 teams. TEAM POWER RANKINGS 1. Torque GC After finishing second in Riyadh, Torque GC enters Adelaide as the clear favorite. Last season, Joaquin Niemann, Abraham Ancer and Carlos Ortiz finished first, T2, T2 on the leaderboard, respectively. Ancer, who played for Fireballs GC in 2024 and 2025, also won the Australian Open in 2018, showing an affinity for strong play in Australia. Sebastian Munoz struggled in Adelaide in each of the past two seasons but is in strong current form. Torque looks as if they can be a powerhouse this season. 2. Legion XIII With the depth of Legion XIII and the star power of Captain Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton, it’s nearly impossible to rank the defending Team Champions any lower than second. Rahm, who finished second last week in Riyadh, put a new driver in play last week. Unsurprisingly, he remained dominant off the tee, leading the field by gaining 1.64 strokes with the big stick. The two-time major champion is going to be lurking on just about every leaderboard and will be the individual favorite in Adelaide where he finished sixth last season. 3. Ripper GC Ripper GC is coming off a thrilling victory in Riyadh in both the individual and team competitions. The team’s newest and youngest member, Elvis Smylie, put on a show with accuracy and putting on the way to victory. Last season, Ripper finished ninth in Adelaide, which was a big dissapointment for the all-Aussie squad. With Captain Cameron Smith seemingly in better form and Lucas Herbert
