Talor Gooch held on to secure a three-stroke victory and claim his first LIV Golf title in Adelaide on Sunday.
The American had a 10-shot lead going into the final day, but a mid-round slump saw him return a one-over-par 73 to win on 19 under.
India's Anirban Lahiri carded a 65 to finish second in the Saudi-backed tour's first Australian event.
"Winning on any tour is hard," Gooch said as he secured the $4m (£3.2m) prize.
"Winning on this type of golf course in front of this type of a crowd is not easy.
"There were a couple of moments there where it got shaky and you know that's going to happen."
