TRINGALE SET FOR LIV GOLF SEASON FINALE

Georgia Tech’s Cameron Tringale has earned just over $841,000 in three LIV Golf events after accumulating a little over $3 million on the PGA Tour in 2022-23. The series finishes the season in Miami this weekend at Trump Doral National Golf Club.

The all-time leader in money earned on tour without a ($17,310,004), Tringale was suspended from the PGA Tour in September after joining LIV Golf. As part of his discipline, his name no longer appears on the official PGA Tour money list.
