CaddyBytes 🏆 2026 LIV Golf Andalucía Final Round Recap: Tyrrell Hatton finished the job at Real Club Valderrama, closing with a controlled 70 to win LIV Golf Andalucía at 11-under. It was not a stress-free Sunday, but Hatton answered every serious push, held off a loud home-country charge from Jon Rahm, and completed the week at 273 with rounds of 67-69-67-70.
The final round opened with pressure building immediately. Rahm had the Spanish crowd roaring early, hitting a beautiful iron into the 4th and converting the eagle chance to move within two of Hatton. Cameron Smith also produced an early eagle to climb into the chase, while Scott Vincent added his own early eagle highlight from the 4th green.
Hatton still looked in control with his ball striking. He used the slopes well, kept giving himself looks, and stayed aware of the scoreboard with Rahm charging behind him. But Valderrama never lets a leader coast. A missed par putt gave Hatton his first dropped shot of the day, and the tournament tightened as Rahm, Sergio Garcia, and Abraham Ancer all worked their way closer.
Garcia gave the home crowd another reason to believe. He made a key birdie to get rewarded for his ball striking, then produced a terrific bunker shot and a huge par save when the round could have started sliding away. Rahm and Garcia were both within one at one stage, and by the closing stretch the broadcast framed the day perfectly: Valderrama had become tight, tense, and fully alive.
Ancer made one of the strongest final-round runs from the chase pack. His iron into the 6th was right on line, and another approach into the 10th showed the kind of controlled shot-making Valderrama demands. He added a birdie at the 13th to reach 8-under, eventually finishing solo third after a final-round 68.
The biggest Spanish push came from Rahm. After the early eagle, he hit a brilliant tee shot at the 15th, converted the birdie, and then added another birdie at the 17th to reach 9-under. His final-hole try was a terrific effort, but it did not fall, leaving Hatton with the cushion he needed coming down the last.
Hatton's championship moment came at the most important time. He answered the three-way pressure with a spectacular high shot and birdie at the 14th to reclaim the lead, then made back-to-back birdies at 16 and 17. Those two late birdies gave him control again and turned a tense closing stretch into a two-shot advantage.
There was still one final Valderrama question at the 18th. Hatton's drive leaked into trouble on the right, but he managed the hole with enough control, kept the ball in play, and finished with the kind of safe, smart closing golf that wins on one of the hardest courses on the LIV schedule.
The win was also a team sweep. Legion XIII took the team title behind Hatton and Rahm, giving the final day an extra layer for the group. Hatton won the individual trophy, Rahm finished second and still kept his individual season lead, and Legion XIII moved up in the team race after a complete Valderrama week.
Final leaderboard note: Tyrrell Hatton won LIV Golf Andalucía at 11-under, closing with 70 for a 273 total. His rounds of 67-69-67-70 were enough to win by two at Valderrama.
Jon Rahm finished second at 9-under after a final-round 67. Rahm went 73-67-68-67 for 275, giving Hatton the strongest Sunday pressure and electrifying the Spanish crowd with his early eagle and late birdies.
Abraham Ancer finished third at 8-under after rounds of 72-69-67-68 for 276. Ancer's final-round 68 was one of the cleanest chase efforts of the day and pushed him ahead of the rest of the pack.
Sergio Garcia finished fourth at 7-under after 69-70-68-70 for 277. Garcia's Sunday did not quite turn into a winning charge, but his par saves, bunker touch, and crowd energy kept him inside the main storyline until late.
The tie for fifth at 5-under included Thomas Detry, Dustin Johnson, David Puig, and Cameron Smith. Detry faded with a final-round 74 after starting the day closest to Hatton, Johnson followed Saturday's 64 with 71, Puig closed with 70, and Smith finished with 71 after his early eagle.
Bubba Watson finished ninth at 4-under after 72-70-67-71 for 280. Anirban Lahiri was tenth at 3-under after 70-72-69-70 for 281.
The group tied for 11th at 2-under included Ben An, Bryson DeChambeau, Branden Grace, and Marc Leishman. Each finished at 282, well behind Hatton but still inside the visible top portion of the completed board.
The final story is Hatton's response under pressure. Rahm made the crowd believe, Garcia and Ancer applied scoreboard heat, and Valderrama kept asking hard questions, but Hatton's late birdies at 16 and 17 were the separator. He handled one of the toughest courses in golf with the ball control, patience, and closing nerve needed to win.
