David Puig

David Puig Currius (; born 7 December 2001) is a Spanish professional golfer who plays on the European Tour and the LIV Golf League. He cut short his college career at Arizona State University to join LIV Golf in 2022 but completed his last year online in 2023, which he shared in an Instagram post.

Amateur career Puig had a successful junior career and played for Spain in the Junior Golf World Cup in Japan, where he won silver in 2018 and bronze in 2019. He represented Europe in the 2018 Junior Ryder Cup. Puig finished third at the 2021 European Amateur, behind Christoffer Bring and Ludvig Åberg.

In 2019, Puig enrolled at Arizona State University and started playing college golf with the Arizona State Sun Devils men's golf team. Playing in just his fifth collegiate stroke play tournament, he won the 2021 Southwestern Invitational by a record nine-strokes, and then defended his title in 2022.

Puig also played in the Arnold Palmer Cup in 2020 and 2021, finishing both events with an individual result of 3–1.

Professional career Puig turned professional in September 2022. He joined LIV Golf, making his first appearance as a professional in the LIV Golf Invitational Chicago, having previously played in two events as an amateur. He also joined the Asian Tour. In his first event on the tour, the inaugural International Series Morocco at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam, he held the third round lead before ultimately finishing solo third two strokes behind Jazz Janewattananond.

Puig became a member of the Torque GC team for the 2023 LIV Golf League, alongside Joaquín Niemann, Sebastián Muñoz, and Mito Pereira. He was the youngest player on the 2023 LIV Golf roster. Torque won the team events in Orlando, Washington, Andalusia and Greenbrier.

In October 2023, he recorded his first win as a professional, at the International Series Singapore tournament on the Asian Tour, where he led wire-to-wire and won by five strokes. Puig won his second Asian Tour title in February 2024, at the IRS Prima Malaysian Open. He shot 62-62 in the final two rounds to finish two strokes ahead of runner-up Jeunghun Wang. The win earned Puig an exemption into the 2024 Open Championship. The following month, Puig shot a final-round 60 to tie for first at the International Series Macau. He lost in a playoff to John Catlin.

In November 2025, prior to the BMW Australian PGA Championship, Puig committed himself to full membership for the 2026 European Tour season. He also retained his LIV Golf contract for 2026. He shot a score of 266 (18 under par) to win the Australian PGA Championship, becoming the first Spaniard to claim the title since Seve Ballesteros in 1981. This was Puig's maiden European Tour victory and it came in his 15th start on the tour.
