After a Staggering Season-Finale Last Month, When Can You Expect to Catch LIV Golf Pros on the Greens Again?

The second season of the fledgling LIV Golf came to a close at the LIV Miami event. The $50 million season finale saw Bryson DeChambeau’s Crushers GC win the team championship to claim a $14 million prize. On the other hand, LIV Golf’s main rival, the PGA Tour, is yet to wrap up its 2023 season with three more events left in its calendar.

If that, as a LIV fan, sinks your heart a little bit, one good news is waiting for you. Before the next season tees off in February, reportedly in Mayakoba, Mexico, you can catch a glimpse of your favorite golfer at a different event later this week.

Where are the LIV Golfers playing next?

A disclaimer first. Yes, you need to wait a few more months to see the entire field of LIV Golf pros go against each other. But hey, you can still watch your favorite stars gracing the greens at different tournaments before that. For example, at the 2023 Hong Kong Open later this week. 

Season champions Talor Gooch, Patrick Reed, Graeme McDowell, Harold Varner III, Cameron Smith, and Thomas Pieters, LIV Golf’s who’s-who are all heading to the Hong Kong Golf Club on 9th November. Undoubtedly, for the players, it’s a chance to rekindle their camaraderie after the 2023 season ended last month. 

Notably, in the PIF-funded league, Gooch plays alongside Varner III and Pieters at the Rangegoats GC. For the 31-year-old golfer, who topped the season-long leaderboard, friendship with Varner III was one of the big reasons for switching to Rangegoats GC as he revealed in a conversation with the tournament’s official website.

Hong Kong Open, being played for the first time since 2020, is a bonus for LIV Golf fans after the season-ender at Miami. But that also begs the question, what’s next for Greg Norman’s upstart league in 2024?

What’s next in line for LIV Golf?

PIF is yet to release the calendar for the next season. It seems that with only two months left till the deadline for the framework agreement with the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, their main worry is to achieve a breakthrough. However, an extension of the deadline is imminent as multiple hurdles remain.

Even in the messy scenario, one possible indication of a thaw is that reportedly, the PGA Tour is not going to bar its players from participating in the LIV Golf Promotions tournament. Neither is a sanction en masse on the line. The Promotion’s tournament is the qualifying tournament for LIV Golf, where four drop zone players will get a chance along with upcoming players to qualify for the next season’s events. 

As the three parties are yet to achieve a breakthrough, in all likelihood PGA Tour and LIV Golf will continue to go in separate ways next season as well. But that should not bar you from watching your favorite golfers tee off at the Hong Kong Open.
