36-Year-Old Golfer
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Burmester finished fifth in the LIV Golf individual season standings in 2025 thanks to his four top-5 finishes (including a victory at LIV Golf Chicago, when he outlasted Jon Rahm and Jose Ballester on the first playoff hole). Burmester’s accuracy off the tee (46th in LIV Golf at 51.96 percent) was his one major weakness, as he finished in the top-12 in birdies made, driving distance, putting and GIR. He missed the cut at the PGA Championship before finishing T61 at The Open in 2025. He will need to earn his way into major tournaments in 2026 through qualifying events or strong play in the breakaway league. Read Past Outlooks
Loses momentum in Hong Kong
March 8, 2026
Burmester finished solo seventh at LIV Golf Hong Kong after posting a 15-under cumulative score.
ANALYSIS
Burmester found himself at the top of the leaderboard with Carlos Ortiz after the former posted a 62-64 score through the first two rounds of the tournament. However, Burmester couldn't separate himself from the field over the final two days, finishing the tournament with rounds of 69-70. It was a disappointing end to what looked like a promising tournament, but Burmester has finished in the top-10 in each of his last two LIV Golf tournaments. He'll tee it up next week at LIV Golf Singapore, where he's finished 42-T14-T29 over the last three years.
