He managed to take the spotlight at the 2024 LIV Golf Hong Kong, where he bagged his first win in the Breakaway league followed by a three-man playoff. “I was proud of how I managed my mental side there that Sunday because that round could have been brutal,” Ancer told Fairway To Heaven, LIV Golf’s official podcast.
“I knew that I played pretty much flawless golf the first two rounds so some bad shots were going to happen at some point.” Ancer’s debut at the Asian Tour’s International Series India is highly anticipated.
