The biggest moment for the LIV Golf Series came recently when former World No. 2 Cameron Smith decided to make a switch from the PGA Tour. This week, he tasted victory as well, winning the Rich Harvest Farms event in Chicago. Smith scorched the entire course, winning with a clear, three-shot lead.

As the team format and the 54 holes tournaments are looking to spice things up in the golf world, Smith is feeling at home. After finishing T-4 in the first event of the Series, the latest win proves why Smith was ranked No. 2 in the world. Peter Uihlein and Dustin Johnson finished in T-2, with a 10 under.

Now World No. 3 since the controversy of LIV Golf and OWGR Points, Smith is not going to stop any time soon. To add to his enormous win, his team 4 Aces also took their fourth consecutive victory in a row. The series takes a two week break before heading to Thailand for the next event on October 7.
