On the 6th (local time), at the final third round of the tournament held at Trump National Doral Golf Club in Miami, Florida, USA (par 72, 7,701 yards), he recorded 2 birdies and 4 bogeys for a 2-over-par 74. He dropped from tied 20th place the previous day to tied 24th place (6-over-par 222). Song Young-han earned a prize of $195,000 (about 280 million KRW).

Although Song Young-han is not a regular member of LIV Golf, he got the opportunity to participate due to the injury of Gozo Ma Jinichiro (Japan) from the Ironheads team before this tournament. Song Young-han is the second Korean national player to participate in an LIV Golf tournament, following Jang Yu-bin, who debuted in LIV Golf this year.

He has six wins on the PGA Tour and won the 2006 SBS Jisan Resort Open on the Korean Professional Golfers' Association (KPGA) Tour before joining the PGA Tour.
