He did discover some success within the league; he managed to realize victory within the 2022 Bangkok occasion. Nevertheless, not every little thing was what it appeared. One main level of rivalry Chacarra had with the league was his place within the OWGR. In an interview with Flushing It, Chacarra continued…

So we have now comparable careers, however he has far more expertise and performs far more massive tournaments, however we have now the identical wins. We have now carried out comparable,” Chacarra stated. “What excursions I can play on, I’ve gained. Similar with him.

Certain, it’s good to be wealthy, however he’s there for the game itself.
“I see what it’s prefer to win on the PGA Tour and the way your life adjustments. The way you get main entry and rating factors. On LIV, nothing adjustments; there’s solely cash. It doesn’t matter for those who end thirtieth or first, solely cash. I’m not a man who needs extra money.”
