The event will commence on March 17th and end on 19th March, and will be the second tournament in the 14-event LIV Golf League. It will be held at the Gallery Golf Club in Tucson, Arizona. The course will be familiar to some of the former PGA Tour players as it has hosted WCG Match Play Championships in 2007 and 2008.

Nonetheless, the players will compete for a lot more this weekend as they set their eyes on the $4 million winner’s purse. Like any other LIV Golf event, the tournament will be having a total of $25 million purse. Moreover, an additional $3 million will go to the team that finishes first, $1.5 million to the second-placed team, and $500,000 to the team securing the third place.
