Saudi Arabia’s PIF-backed league is all set to launch its 2024 season. In fact, the money and energy that LIV Golf is putting into the promotions for their upcoming season find no parallel. With a prize purse in the millions and an opportunity to win three spots in the upcoming bountiful season, the LIV Golf Promotions Tournament remains one of the hottest choices in the golf world.
Maybe this is why the tournament’s roster also boasts some major names from the golf world, teeing it up from December 8th till December 10th. Out of the 73-player playing field, the winner’s payout will be a massive $200,000. The runner-up will earn $150,000, whereas the second runner-up will earn $100,000. All three top players will earn a seat in the upcoming LIV Golf season, along with expected hefty sums of contract money. However, it is expected that it will not be as enticing as the current big names on LIV Golf.
One of the major reasons why LIV Golf’s Promotions Tournament is getting such massive recognition from the golf world is the PGA Tour’s highly criticized disdain when it comes to payouts for players finishing in lower ranks. LIV Golf treats even the players who did not finish in the top places with honorable sums of money for their attempts. For instance, at the LIV Golf Promotions, even amateur golfers who won’t finish in top positions will be handed out a fair sum of $1,000 for making an effort.
Interestingly, the Saudi-backed league took a step away from the norm, where there was no prize money share for anyone who did not make it to the final day. Upon a failure to progress to the second round, LIV Golf will award a sum of $5,000 to the players, and those who miss the cut for reaching the final round will earn $10,000. So what is the prize money breakdown?
