On July 27, An played the final round of the LIV Golf UK tournament at the JCB Golf and Country Club in England, finishing with an even-par 72, which included one birdie and one bogey.
With a total score of 11-under 277, An placed 11th overall.
Starting the final round tied for 7th, An made his first birdie on the 6th hole (par 5) but could not capitalize further after a bogey on the 15th hole (par 4). He ultimately fell short of the top 10 by just one stroke.
