The 2023 LIV Golf Miami has returned to tee it off at the Donald Trump-owned Trump National Golf Club Doral in Miami, Florida. The tournament is going to be the final team championship for the LIV loyalists and is going to be a three-day action from October 20 to October 22. Previously, the team championship was supposed to be held in Jeddah but the schedule was changed later by the authorities.
In this final showdown of LIV, a total of 48 golfers, divided into 12 teams, will make an appearance. Apart from these, since this is the final LIV showdown, the prize pool will be considerably heftier as compared to previous events. So, let’s take a look at what’s at stake in the tournament!

This year, LIV is organizing the second edition of the Miami event, and mostly the old faces from the previous year will be seen. The list includes Brooks Koepka, the recent LIV Golf Jeddah winner. Besides that, Brooks also played for the 2023 American Ryder Cup squad and had a successful year for the most part.
Another name is Dustin Johnson, the captain of the 4Aces GC. Last year, his team won the title and bagged a hefty prize money of $16 million. Also in the fray is the legendary Phil Mickelson, the captain of the HyFlyers GC. The Hall of Famer is already buckling up with his Callaway clubs.
Friday will host the quarterfinals (match-play), Saturday the semis (again match-play) and Sunday the grand finale (stroke play). Now, let’s take a look at the prize pool!

Out of which, the first place prize is $14 million, from which the team’s share is 60%, that is $8.4 million, and each member of the victorious squad will get 10%, that is, a scoop of $1.4 million. But, unlike the PGA Tour, this event will fetch no OWGR points for the LIV comrades.
