The LIV Golf Invitational Series has been in the news ever since it was announced this year. Things boosted up even more for the series after big names like Phil Mickelson and Kevin Na got into the tour.
The major difference in the series from others is the high prize money it offers to the players, especially to the winner. But the event has now become even more interesting after LIV Golf released the names and logos of its teams for the year.
