It was the site of their stunning team win in a playoff last year, and the Ripper GC team are back at the Grange Golf Club ready to defend at LIV Adelaide.

Hot off is tied-fourth last week in Riyadh, Victorian Lucas Herbert will be hoping for a dream breakthrough performance on home soil.

“Personally, I think our worst player is better than every other team’s worst player,” Herbert said.

“Some weeks, some guys will play the No. 1 spot, and some guys play the No. 4 spot. Cam’s the standout player, but then there just doesn’t feel like a weakness on our team. It feels like we’re all pretty solid player who are pretty consistent, week in and week out.”

All the Ripper GC team members will be eager to impress the Australian crowds, however without an individual win in season 2024, Captain Cam Smith will be wanting to prove a point early this year.

Elsewhere, Danny List is making his PGA TOUR debut at The Genesis Invitational, thanks to being chosen by tournament host Tiger Woods as this year's Charlies Sifford Memorial Exemption recipient.

List joins TOUR regulars Adam Scott, Jason Day, Cam Davis and his close friend Min Woo Lee at Torrey Pines.

Four Australasians are teeing it up on the LET this week in Saudi Arabia, with last season's Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia Order of Merit winner Kazuma Kobori caddying for sister Momoka.
