Chieh-po Lee earns lone 2025 LIV Golf spot from Promotions event

Date:

Chieh-po “Max” Lee captured the lone 2025 LIV Golf spot on offer at its Promotions event.

Lee, a 30-year-old winner this past season on the Asian Tour, shot 3-under 68 in the final round at Riyadh Golf Club to finish at 10 under par, two clear of second place.

Taichi Kho (67) and Branden Grace (67) finished T-2. Grace, who won a LIV Golf individual tournament as part of the Stingers team in 2022, was relegated after a poor ’24 season.

American Ollie Schniederjans was in position to win the Promotions event but made three bogeys in a four-hole stretch on the back nine to tie for fourth. The top 10 earned full status next season on the International Series, sanctioned by the Asian Tour.

Following a pair of cuts after the first two rounds in Saudi Arabia, the field of 20 competed over 36 holes on Saturday. Lee prevailed, shooting 64-68.

The Chinese Taipei player will have a full card for LIV Golf next season. It has not been determined if he will be a member of a team.
