Sebastian Munoz is having a great time at Rich Harvest Farms, playing in the LIV Golf Chicago. He is currently leading the table by a margin of three strokes against Anirban Lahiri after the end of the first two rounds.

After the end of the second round, the 30-year-old Colombian golfer reflected on his strong lead heading to the third round on Sunday. LIV Golf shared a video on X (formerly known as Twitter) in which he was heard saying:

"Not really. It took a lot of that time off. Really take a chance to work on my game. My ball tracking was a little iffy, now I think I got it back into the play. And you know, that the putter has been working a lot. I'm just keeping it very simple. And... it's working."

Later on, Sebastian Munoz was asked about how it feels to be on the Torque GC team, who are heading for the fifth win of the 2023 season. Munoz replied by saying:

"Absolutely, one hundred percent, that's the reason you know. These guys are one of the really good golfers and the greats. I feel like, I wanna be part of that and it keeps me on check and keep my golf at the level of their game."

Finally, Sebastian Munoz was asked about how it feels to not win a tournament in 2020. Although he came closer to winning quite a number of times this season on LIV Golf, he is still vying for his first win in the League and fifth professional title. He said:

"Oh, it means a lot. I just said. It's been a while. And that's what we work for. We've been up there [podium] four times already as a team, but, yeah it's time for move in and win the individual as well. It's gonna be a challenge, but that's why work, and that's why we prep, and kind of bring my best tomorrow."
