Since Joaquin Niemann he is fully installed in the elite of world golf, that is to say, on the PGA Tour, he has not let much time pass to be involved in the high fight of a tournament. His consistency is demonstrated by the number of times he has finished in the Top 10 in his three seasons, with four in each of the 2018, 2019 and 2020 campaigns.
Today, already competing in the 2021 course of the prestigious American circuit, he added his first presence among the top 10 in just his third contest, after finishing 23rd at the US Open and 13th at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open. This Sunday, in The CJ Cup @ Shadow Creek, in Las Vegas, finished sixth, thanks to an impeccable last round.
The Chilean Golfer he had practically no errors in the final round. No bogeys, he made six birdies, which allowed him to sign a card of 66 strokes (-6) on the closing lap, his best of the event.
“Joaking” managed to get off on flags 6, 7, 10, 11, 16 and 18. With this, he surpassed his performance on Friday, when he completed 68 sticks (-4).
Thus, he concluded the championship in Nevada with a accumulated score of 275 impacts (-13). As usual, he was only beaten by English-speaking players, all quite a bit older than him.
This Monday, “Joaco” will reach its highest position in the planetary ranking, after having started the week in 46th place. His location will more closely resemble his true status on the tour, where it is no longer surprising to see him battling upstairs with the most reputable exponents of the sport.
On Thursday, Niemann will return to action at The Zozo Championship in California. There, the defending champion will be a certain Tiger Woods, who won it last year, in Japan.
