The ever-controversial LIV Golf Invitational Series will return July 29 with 12 teams and 48 golfers. Those teams were determined July 26 via draft.
LIV Golf Portland featured the debuts of Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau, among others. Similarly, LIV Golf Bedminster will feature the debuts of Jason Kokrak and Henrik Stenson, among others.
Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson were among the early defectors from the PGA Tour to the upstart league. The PGA Tour has indefinitely suspended all players who have joined LIV Golf.
That hasn’t dissuaded players from joining moving to the new series, with hefty purses and reduced travel proving to be too much to resist.
