Five LIV golfers with the best chance of winning the Masters

Niemann is the only player on LIV Golf with multiple wins this season. The 26-year-old won in Adelaide by three shots and dusted the field by five in Singapore, cementing him as one of the most talented players in the world. 

Despite Niemann's strong play this season, it's hard to trust him given his track record in majors. Niemann has never finished better than T16 in 22 major championship starts. The Chilean was playing even better golf last year entering major season, but he fell flat again with a T22 at the Masters, a T39 at the PGA Championship and a T58 at the Open Championship. 

Bryson DeChambeau

DeChambeau is coming off the best major year of his career. The big-hitting American won the U.S. Open in dramatic fashion over Rory McIlroy, finished runner-up at the PGA Championship and finished T6 at the Masters. That surprisingly marked the first top-20 finish at Augusta National in his career. 

DeChambeau likes to overpower golf courses, but Augusta is much more about precision and touch. Still, DeChambeau should be considered one of the favorites. 

Brooks Koepka

Koepka doesn't have a top-25 finish in his last five major championship starts, but it would be disrespectful to leave him off this list. This is a guy who's won five major championships and has 18 top-10 finishes in his major career. 

Koepka showed some signs of form with a runner-up finish in Singapore in March, but he's struggled with his driver and putter this season. Those struggles might disappear once he finds himself in a major championship setting, though. 

Phil Mickelson

That's right, Mickelson can absolutely win the Masters this year. The 54-year-old is playing the best golf of his LIV Golf career, finishing solo third in Hong Kong and solo sixth in Miami. He's gained strokes from off the tee in all four starts this season, and he's gained strokes on approach and from putting in three straight. 

Remember, Mickelson finished runner-up at the Masters just two years ago, and he's playing much better golf now.
