Joaquin Niemann Zenteno was born on November 7, 1998, in Santiago, Chile. He developed an early interest in golf, influenced by his father, a recreational player. From a young age, Niemann demonstrated significant talent in the sport, leading to an impressive amateur career. He held the number one position in the World Amateur Golf Ranking for 44 consecutive weeks from May 2017 to April 2018. During this period, he earned the 2017 Mark H. McCormack Medal, securing entry into the 2018 U.S. Open and Open Championship. He also won the 2018 Latin America Amateur Championship, which granted him an invitation to the 2018 Masters Tournament. These achievements marked Niemann as a rising star in the global golf community.
Niemann turned professional in 2018 after competing in the Masters as an amateur. His transition to professional golf was rapid and successful. In his first professional start at the 2018 Valero Texas Open, he finished 6th. He quickly earned Special Temporary Member Status on the PGA Tour. By achieving four top-10 finishes in just eight starts, including a T5 at The Greenbrier, he secured his PGA Tour card for the 2018–19 season, bypassing the Web.com Tour Finals. This early career progression highlighted his immediate impact on the professional circuit.
His professional career has seen significant milestones, including two PGA Tour victories: A Military Tribute at The Greenbrier in 2019 and the Genesis Invitational in 2022, hosted by Tiger Woods. Niemann became the first PGA Tour winner from Chile and the youngest international PGA Tour winner since 1923 with his first victory. In August 2022, Niemann joined the LIV Golf League, where he serves as the captain of the Torque GC team. He has since accumulated multiple wins on the LIV Golf League, including the LIV Golf Mayakoba in 2024 with a record-setting first-round score of 59. He also secured victories on the European Tour (2023 ISPS Handa Australian Open) and the Asian Tour (2024 PIF Saudi International), further solidifying his international standing in professional golf.
