Lush jungles, blue waters and colorful reefs. On the surface, the Serapong Golf Course is a paradise. But for the players, there are dangers lurking below. And precision is the only way to escape them.

Coming straight out of Adelaide, Ripper GC will be searching for the sequel to their epic storybook final. As will Brendan Steele, who might be wondering if he can replicate Talor Gooch’s back-to-back wins from last year.

Who will triumph over the perils in Singapore? Check out the latest Power Rankings and read on to find out more.

Top 5 reasons to watch this weekend

   1. HyFlyers GC claimed their first top three finish in Adelaide by topping the GIR, birdie and fairway hit tables. Can they maintain that accuracy to keep flying high in Singapore? 

 
  2. Last season, Sergio Garcia lost to Talor Gooch in a dramatic playoff final. With two second place finishes already this year, will the Fireballs GC captain finally find his A-game? 

 
    3. The Dragon’s Tail is a snaking stretch of tricky holes from the 4th to the 7th. If players can’t find their accuracy here, they could end up being whipped into the lake or bunkers. 

 
    4. Brooks Koepka topped the GIR percentage stats in Australia and his scrambling is something to watch too. Will he bring that precision to Singapore to safely navigate the Tail? 

 
    5. The only player to consistently finish in the top 10 this season is Jon Rahm. But he’s never secured an individual victory in LIV Golf. Can Legion XIII’s captain convert this hot streak into a big win?
