MA’s Uihlein Banks Over $12M During Inaugural LIV Golf Season
Massachusetts native and former Northeast Amateur champion Peter Uihlein made bank in his first season with LIV Golf.
In about a five month stretch, Uihlein pulled in $12,814,786 after making just over $4 million in 126 starts on the PGA Tour.
Now, according to reports, Uihlein will be joining Dustin Johnson’s 4 Aces team for next season, replacing Talor Gooch.
GolfNewsRI interviewed Uihlein when LIV Golf came to Boston a few months ago.
Uihlein’s Season
Playing with Brooks Koepka’s team, Smash GC, Uihlein finished in second place in two of LIV’s first three events.
In the first event in London, Uihlein made a clutch putt on the last hole to finish in fourth and grab a check for $1.5 million.
During the regular season, Uihlein made $7,314,786 in on-course winnings.
However, he pulled in an extra $5.5 million for his third-place finish overall and Smash GC’s third place finish in the team championship.
