Sergio Garcia (ESP, captain)

It is more than a quarter of a century since Garcia erupted on to the professional golf stage and almost immediately staged an epic duel with Tiger Woods for the 1999 PGA Championship.

He has since won more than 35 tournaments across the world, including the 2017 Masters – clinched, with supreme showmanship, on what would have been Spanish legend Seve Ballesteros’s 60th birthday.

Garcia leavens his extensive experience with an enduring youthful enthusiasm for his sport, and his third place on the overall standings in 2024 suggests there are more exciting times to come for him.

Abraham Ancer (MEX)

Ancer turned pro in 2013, but caught the eye of golfing fans the world over in 2020, when he teed off in the final group at the Masters before finishing tied for 13th behind Dustin Johnson.

He has competed impressively in LIV Golf, finishing 19th in the individual standings for 2022 and 12th in 2024, when he joined the ranks of tournament winners thanks to a victory in Hong Kong following a playoff with Paul Casey and Cameron Smith.

Although he was born in Texas, Ancer is Mexican through and through and has pledged to invest time and money in growing golf in his native land.

David Puig (ESP)

Puig represented Fireballs GC in LIV Golf’s very first event in London in 2022, when he was still an amateur.

After he turned pro later than year, he signed with Torque GC for 2023 and was part of four team triumphs, while also recording a fourth-place finish at The Greenbrier.

Puig was the first college golfer to turn pro with LIV Golf - though he will assuredly not be the last – and he belied his youth with consistent play for Fireballs GC in 2024, including tying for third place in Houston. He also claimed victory at the Malaysian Open, his second pro win..

Josele Ballester (ESP)

Before turning pro with LIV Golf, the 2024 U.S. Amateur Champion was ranked No. 6 in the World Amateur Golf Ranking.

Hailing from Castellón, the same Spanish province as Sergio Garcia, Ballester continues a proud regional legacy while representing the next wave of Spanish golf talent. He debuted with the Fireballs this past weekend at LIV Golf VA.
