Patrick Reed has admitted to being hugely impressed by the form of Joaquin Niemann on LIV Golf this season.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Niemann<\/a> has been an unstoppable force on LIV<\/a> this season, winning four out of the eight events played so far.<\/p>\n

The Chilean has left Reed<\/a> and almost every other player on LIV in his wake this season.<\/p>\n

Back in March, Phil Mickelson suggested that LIV Golf star Niemann was the best golfer<\/a> on the planet.<\/p>\n

Whilst that may have been an exaggeration, the 26-year-old is undoubtedly one of the best 10 golfers in the world, although he would undoubtedly like to start performing better in the majors.<\/p>\n

Reed is someone who knows all about producing the goods in majors \u2013 he won The Masters in 2018.<\/p>\n

The 34-year-old has enjoyed two top-5 finishes at the Masters in the last three years as well.<\/p>\n

Patrick Reed raves about fellow LIV golfer Joaquin Niemann<\/p>\n

Reed cut a frustrated figure at the U.S. Open<\/a> earlier this month, after a poor finish to his first round saw him fall out of contention.<\/p>\n

The man known as \u2018Captain America\u2019 hasn\u2019t been anywhere near his best this season, and he is still in search of his first win on LIV.<\/p>\n

That will be incredibly hard to come by considering the form that Niemann has shown this year.<\/p>\n

Reed spoke to reporters on Wednesday ahead of LIV Dallas at Maridoe Golf Club, and offered high words of praise for the Chilean.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cYeah, he needs to slow down. He\u2019s won 50 percent of them. He\u2019s playing some unbelievable golf. Every time he\u2019s on the leaderboard he\u2019s that guy you have to take care of and attack. You\u2019re always looking for his name because you know if you\u2019re close to him, you have a chance to win.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s playing some spectacular golf this year. It\u2019s just you go out there, try to shoot as low as possible, and hopefully you\u2019re competing with him late on Sunday and hopefully you\u2019re the one on top.\u201c<\/p>\n

Patrick Reed vs Joaquin Niemann LIV results 2025<\/p>\n

Niemann has been streets ahead of every other LIV golfer this season.<\/p>\n

Reed hasn\u2019t been terrible, but his results look poor in comparison to the Chilean\u2019s:<\/p>\n\n\nReed<\/td>\nNiemann<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nEvents played<\/td>\n8<\/td>\n8<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nWins<\/td>\n0<\/td>\n4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nTop-5s<\/td>\n1<\/td>\n4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nTop-10s<\/td>\n3<\/td>\n4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Reed needs to look at Niemann, watch what he\u2019s doing better than everyone else and try to take inspiration from it.<\/p>\n

We all know just how good the 2018 Masters champion is when he\u2019s on form.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s simply too good not to have won on LIV yet.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Patrick Reed has admitted to being hugely impressed by the form of Joaquin Niemann on LIV Golf this…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":218604,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4106],"tags":[2826,86460,4299,86461,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-218603","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-golf","8":"tag-golf","9":"tag-joaquin-niemann","10":"tag-liv-golf","11":"tag-patrick-reed","12":"tag-sports","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114755363463928775","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/218603","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=218603"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/218603\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/218604"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=218603"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=218603"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=218603"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
