LIV Golf’s line-up has seen a slight change since its first season in 2022, with several players being shown the door.
The initial eight-tournament schedule announced in March 2022 included just 48 players, but this number dwindled after the inaugural Invitational Series Centurion event at St Albans in June. Big names like Bryson DeChambeau, Brooks Koepka and Patrick Reed were roped in for LIV’s second event in Portland, while many one-hit wonders parted ways with the organisation.
