he did a lot of good things and he has to remember those. obviously it always hurts. it happened to me two or three times last year. so the good thing is i think he played really solid. that's the most important thing and he's going to take all those positives. >> finally you let all the way as team captain from the front. you played great today. how motivated where you starting today to lead your team into this win? >> yes. obviously it was something that i wanted to do because we were right there. i had in my mind i had a championship 600 today which i knew wasn't easy but i felt like i could do it. i was right there and fortunately going to last. just super proud of the way everyone played and to get another win. >> congratulations. go and enjoy yourself. >> sergio a very happy man. we talked about the crucible of pressure. joaco niemann simply excelled when it mattered.

the only player bogey free today of all 54 of them and h 865 was the lowest of the week this is for birdie at six. he started the day three back of three men who were nine under par and in the end he wins by three. he was excellent on the opening day. had a win of three straight bogeys in the second round which hurt his chances or so it appeared. today just magnificent. this is a birdie as well. a huge moment at the watering hole. he was keeping the pressure on abraham ancer. his second shot here at 15. the par-4. that led to his fifth birdie of the day.

and his second. what a delightful bunker shot at 18. he would roll that in for bir birdie. just a supreme performance by the chilean. the captain of torque. joaco niemann who is a horsfield golf winner for the third time. the men who came second in the championship. the season-long championship last year. and he adds a win in adelaide two wins in my uncle to mexico last year , and in jetta saudi arabia at that point he sealedit. a brilliant performance on championship sunday in front of tens of thousands of fans. a true test of his character and his nerve, and he passed it with flying colors. his excellency with the congratulations.

torque ended in third place as well in the team competition. they came from nowhere. they were ten under par today. so let's go through the pylons for you, confirmation. joaco niemann seven under par today, 13 under over all. just three ahead of carlos ortiz and abraham ancer. puig without following day, fireball as well. richard bland gets it done again, 800 to finish in fifth place. the charge didn't tear allies from jon rahm. but his legion xiii finishing second place. bryson dechambeau just 1 under today, 4 under for the competition. watson, slipping a little towards the end. cam smith started brilliantly today. look like ripper might come back. he slipped away some what.

majestic's majesticks failed to get it do done. contribution to the fireballs' team win. >> and team champion the fireballs, david. all of them got it done today. sergio out at number 12 for birdie. made a lot of good putts today. >> the youngster really proved his worth today. first time in the big arena, if you like. he did is part. he'll be tasting team champagne in just the second event as a fireball. david buche no surprise when he plays well and he did it again today. that was a birdie at ten. he went on to be 11 to play this beautiful high spending wide shot.

>> struck the ball beautifully all night. everything you need to do on this golf course to get it done. right here at the sixth, sergio and every time he takes little stuff like that, you know it's going to be good. >> not on purpose he does it by the beautiful shot here would lead to a birdie for surgery on the 118-yard par-3. and flawless through 16 holes today. he missed his first green through at 13 but he made for that at birdie earlier and leading all the way until the final two holes. >> this is how it finished at the team championship here in adelaide. the fireballs the fifth team win in their history. 21 under par. six shots ahead of legion xiii who were trying to go back-to-back after winning in riyadh last week. they get on the podium on 13 on their part out the crushers and

the majesticks, goes on and on. wocouldn't get it done.they fid the fireballs. the first two winners of the season or legion xiii and the fireballs. of the season are legion xiii and the fireballs. ♪ ♪ that was impressive from joaco niemann. is it fair to say he won it rather than losing it? >> any time you can shoot 65 in the final round, three shots behind to start? he won it. definitely took it. >> abe ancer was in control of his game in the tournament the whole time and then joaco started putting heat on him. after that you miss your first green at 14 for the entirety, miss your only two fairways when

he needed it most at 17 and 18. going to feel like he lost it but you cannot control what the others do and joaco niemann's shot tied or low around the entire week here on championship sunday. >> the other man who was bogey free today has emerged as an absolute force in the liv golf league starting in the start of last season won in a play up against sergio. he won two events later in jeddah. what impresses you the most of his play? >> such a great athlete. he's like a twisted piece of steel you find in a bridge cable. immensely long, incredibly talented and has all the shots in the bag, from these hard surfaces to be able to make its band. he could do it all. >> when he finally got comfortable with that high draw, that's the only draw to hit the high hook. but now he's come to moving it

both ways. this course requires the most precise ball striking then any courses we play all year long and normally in a course like that he's going to contend when he's making a few putts he's going to win. that's what he did. >> maybe he can make an impact in the majors and this man can come a tyrrell hatton who had a very solid start to this season. legion xiii who were victorious in re-add in riyadh. they will consolidate first overall in the season-long standings. let's take a look at some of their highlights. john john rams challenge didn't quit. but he led his team to a second chance t place finish the birdie there at the par-5. this contains the two youngest players in the liv golf league.

the youngest of which was taylor saran for the 20 year old and new signing tom mckibbin 22 years of age, what a signing he's proved to be so far. >> just continues to impress and jon rahm knew that when he went out to make him a legion xiii member. >> that is the crowd gathering in front of the stage but will have the presentations of course before the big fissure gig a little bit later on. and the finals, impressive display today but we talked about the majesticks trying to get on the podium. the fireballs were easily the best-in-class today to take the title. >> they really were and yet again sergio garcia is evergreen. he just keeps on doing it and doing it. making the putts when it matters, hitting great shots and being an inspiration to the rest of his team. >> at this stage of his career he's not the young man he once was. a lot of people think that was probably maybe his second best year of his entire career. last year the way he played.

obviously the landscape of professional golf has changed and it's difficult to measure apples against oranges but he played incredible golf last year. played incredible golf this week. i think is going to continue to play incredible golf. he's like a proud papa of fireballs but he he really is. >> he's got masaveu come a very promising youngsters. we take a look at the back of the box here, the corner of the fan zone and people watching golf obviously heading to their concert now. the announcement this morning, the liv golf league coming back to adelaide until at least 2031. that took us all by surprise. players adore this events. the fans have locked all preseason. over 100,000 through the gates the last three days as joaco through the crowd. that is a staggering statement by the league, isn't it, and by adelaide to be here at least until 2031. >> the city of adelaide has

embraced us in south australia. these people, it's been a very special event since its inception. one of the gray areas of the world to have a great sporting event. >> it's a huge win because you know all the other premiers were clamoring for a chance to put their name in the hat and get this event. the economic impact it makes in this community of adelaide in south australia is amazing. over 70 million last year. i think that's extremely conservative. it gives the rest of the australians a good reason to do a bucket list trip to come here to adelaide, south australia, which they don't normally do as a whole from a tourist destination. >> absolutely. it's sort of ascending as a bucket list event in australia. it's going to be a while but they've only had three of these. the one in melbourne, the australian open in melbourne, you've got the afl grand final each year as well. but now you can add quite

confidently liv golf adelaide for australian sports fans as a must visit at some point in your life. >> no question the need to got a place to play the grange or any of these golf courses, they are all works of art. they really are special places to play. >> let's talk about a couple of the other players, some of the big names. jon rahm today, a charge didn't quite materialize but what do you make of his start of the season? >> he just keeps finishing in the top ten and only a matter of time before it all comes together for him. it didn't today. a couple of loose shots with short arms that are really unlike him and you've got to be so precise around here with everything that you do. just didn't quite have that sort of player's vision. >> doesn't have his best stuff and finishes top ten. it's almost like a broken record over and over. >> only needs a couple of bounces like he expects and he'll win made seemingly he's going to be there every time. >> yes indeed but every event in

the liv golf league he's completed he's finished in the top ten. he is of course are raining liv golf league champion and his legion xiii are top of the standings. out to two events of 1 13 in the team competition as well. started poorly in his opening round last week at >> yesterday in fact again, he was one of those just didn't all come together for him. i think brooks takes these events a lot more seriously and they mean a lot more time than if he was just playing a standard pga tour event that we know what makes them tick though and that's a major. >> these are the standings individually after two events. points awarded to the top 24 players. adrian meronk by virtue of winning last week had a decent finish today. he's in top spot. joaco niemann finished out of points in re-odd but 40 points

awarded to the victors so he's in third place. john ramm on consistency in second place a ba abe ancer disappoint me today but he's a sick space. look at that. ricky b. what a legend. let's hand it down to the main stage for the presentations. >> australia, welcome to the podium and championship celebration of liv golf adela adelaide! joining us on the stage right now, make some noise for the seal of liv golf, the one and only scott o'neill! it is now time to meet the top three finishing individuals. in third place, from fireballs gc, abraham ancer!

i'm not happy with the way that pg&e handled the wildfires. yeah. yeah. i totally, totally understand. we're adding a ton of sensors. as soon as something comes in contact with the power line, it'll turn off so that there's not a risk that it's gonna fall to the ground and start a fire. okay. and i want you to be able to feel the improvements. we've been able to reduce wildfire risk from our equipment by over 90%. that's something i want to believe. [skateboard sounds]

worf is back open just in time for the holiday weekend. a high surf warning ended this morning after a large breaking waves as high as 45ft were reported. authorities are telling people to stay away from the beaches and out of the water. the conditions there prompted the santa cruz wharf to close. you'll remember back in december, a storm closed off a portion of the structure and actually caused it to collapse into the ocean. local officials say they are not taking any chances. >> to respond proactively ensure that incidents are responded to progressively and that things don't happen out there, and that was our key goal. >> i think it's a good precaution because the last time people could have died.

>> governor newsom is sending help to santa cruz under the california disaster assistance act. he issued an emergency proclamation to aid recovery efforts from december's destructive storms. the emergency proclamation allows the governor's office of emergency services to provide assistance to santa cruz. officials in the north bay are considering using emergency road repair funds after recent rainstorms. the napa county board of supervisors will vote on the nearly $10 million local emergency funding proposal next week. a report in the press democrat says the proposal would fast track road repairs. sonoma county reported about 8.8 million in damage despite receiving more rain. both counties are seeking state and federal reimbursement. a stretch of southbound 101 in marin county is back open following another mudslide. skyfox was overhead yesterday as a bulldozer was scooping up rocks and dirt near sausalito. other crew members were picking up limbs from fallen trees. the chp says mud, trees and rocks

spilled out onto the freeway late thursday night. several agencies work together today to battle a two alarm house fire in the burlingame hills. crews from cal fire, san mateo county, san bruno and more responded around 6 a.m. to this fire on canyon road. you can see just how difficult it was for crews to fight this blaze. that home is just surrounded by tall trees and power lines and other structures. four people inside of the house were able to escape on their own without getting hurt. cal fire says there were many cardboard boxes in the home, which helped rapidly spread. and the exact cause is still under investigation. a nonprofit in the east bay is filing a lawsuit against the town of moraga over their failure to have a wildfire evacuation plan safe. morocco, which stands for safety around fire evacuation, says the town is the bay area's pacific palisades. moraga is a semi-rural community in the hills, situated miles away from local highways and within or near a very high fire hazard
