After a dramatic start in Mayakoba, LIV Golf is making its way towards Las Vegas. The second event of the breakaway league looks to be following the PGA Tour’s playbook as the event is coming to the party capital for the first time. The Saudi-funded league also seems to be cashing in on the popularity of the Super Bowl, giving fans an enthralling experience to look forward to next week!

The two events are almost in the same location too, with the neighboring Las Vegas Country Club and Allegiant Stadium becoming the hot spots for fans. Two major sporting events are taking place simultaneously over four days! But is there a way fans can enjoy the best of both worlds? Well, it turns out there are!

The Las Vegas Pro-Am event is scheduled to take place on February 7, a day before the main event. The special thing about this event is that if you buy tickets, you and two fellow amateurs will get a chance to play at the LVCC.

Not only that, fans can play alongside their favorite pros! However, Super Bowl fans may be wondering how this event offers the best of both worlds. Well, NFL stars will also be participating in this fun event!

Leading the pack, NFL superstar Maxx Crosby has promised he will be there. With the LA Raiders star committing, surely more players will follow suit. Other professional players in the breakaway league will also be present at the event.

There are 2 options available for fans: play with one pro for the full 18 holes, or play with two pros switching after 9 holes. Interestingly, with a value-for-money price, LIV Golf is trying its best to capitalize on the hype of the Super Bowl.

Is the ticket price worth the hype?

The Saudi-backed league has set the price to meet Crosby and other pros at $10,000 per person! Interested fans can book one, two, or the entire group of three spots, but they must be 16 or older. At first, the Pro-Am ticket may seem expensive, but it brings a lot of value with it. Fans will get a full meal and a premium gift, no matter if they win or lose.

Furthermore, the main event’s price is much cheaper than the Super Bowl. The lowest get-in price for Super Bowl Sunday’s matchup is nearly $7,231. Last week, the price was $8,200! Compared to that, LIV Golf is offering its event at half its price. The 3-day all-access pass to the breakaway league’s event costs $3,955. Furthermore, single-day all-access passes are available for the price of $1,423 (Thursday), $1,539 (Friday), and $1,703 (Saturday).

Additionally, LIV Golf also has a party hole. This event is an inspired copy of the WM Phoenix Open’s 16th hole. Both the greens have a mini-stadium around them, which will let people enjoy the action up close. With NFL star Maxx Crosby also going to LVCC, fans are surely in for a treat of the best of both worlds!
