When LIV Golf was inaugurated, it gathered a lot of attention from fans for its distinctive format of 54 holes instead of the traditional 72 holes and for its team format. There are 12 teams in the Saudi League, and each team has 4 players. In every tournament, a golfer competes for the individual title and the team points as well. But as of now, the interesting LIV Golf news, including Phil Mickelson and Bryson DeChambeau, might just be a breath of fresh air in the league’s format.

Amid its upcoming Greenbrier event excitement, the official Instagram page of Crushers GC, DeChambeau’s team, asked fans if they would be interested in seeing a 9-hole match between the two legendary golfers where they will be going against each other. It seems that fans wanted to see Lefty and the Scientist go against each other in an epic YouTube match, and the LIV Golf teams just granted the fans’ wish.

Showing their excitement at seeing two of the best golfers compete, a few fans commented, 

“Fantastic news. My two fav golfers. Thank you for Making Golf Great Again!”

“My two favorite golfers! What a match!”

Hearing the news that Mickelson and DeChambeau would compete together excited many fans. Like Mickelson, ‘The Scientist’ also went through a physical transformation recently. He had gained a lot of weight as he was trying to bulk up, which led to some remarkable gains. However, he later felt it was a mistake as the high-calorie diet led to mood swings and messed up his gut. This pushed him to get a nutritionist, eat clean, and shed weight.
