At 47 years old, Paul Casey might not be in his prime, but he’s proving that he still has plenty of fight left in the LIV Golf League. After an underrated 2024 season, where he finished 11th in the individual standings, the English veteran is setting a clear target for 2025—finishing ahead of Bryson DeChambeau.
Despite not securing a win, Casey came agonizingly close in Hong Kong, finishing second to Abraham Ancer. Reflecting on his year, he admitted that winning on LIV Golf is no easy feat. But for next season, his motivation is simple: beating DeChambeau in the rankings.
When I had a call from Bryson a couple of years ago, and LIV was starting, he was like, ‘I am going to be a captain. Do you want to be on my team?’ I was like, ‘Yeah,’” Casey explained.
The Bryson we see now, a lot of people maybe were not aware of… He’s just a big kid. Being a part of Bryson’s team and being around somebody like that… I am p off last year that I didn’t beat him, Casey admitted.
I walked away thinking I was frustrated that I didn’t beat him. He finished eighth or ninth, so that gets my goat; that keeps me going.
When podcast host Guy Charnock asked if Casey’s goal was to beat DeChambeau in 2025, the Englishman didn’t hesitate.
I don’t publicize my goals, but I will tell you right now that I want to beat Bryson in the rankings in 2025
For Casey, this isn’t just about rankings—it’s about pushing himself to new heights in the Saudi-backed circuit. LIV Golf has become ultra-competitive, with some of the world’s best players battling each event, and Casey knows he’ll have to step up his game to reach the top.
