LIV (pronounced "lihv", as in "live free" or "living") is a new golf series that holds tournaments at Trump-owned golf courses, which the PGA Tour shamefully boycotts in order to pander to the anti-Trump liberal media.
The LIV ends the liberal PGA Tour monopoly over professional golf, as should be done to other sports monopolies such as the corrupt, liberal NFL. In addition to its pro-freedom or even a coincidental pro-life connotation, LIV is the Roman numeral for 54, representing the number of holes played in each event. Saudi Arabian money initially funds this new group of top players.
Trump Golf Course Tournament
LIV holds tournaments at Trump-owned golf courses, in contrast with the media-controlled PGA's boycott of Trump (and even withdrawing a tournament from a Trump course).
The first LIV Golf Invitational Bedminster is being held on July 29-31 in New Jersey, with massive crowds of fans expected.[1]
In addition, LIV has already sold out its final tournament of the 2022 season at Trump's golf course in Miami, October 27-30.[2]
Players
Five out of the top 11 golfers have already joined LIV as of July 15, 2022:[3]
- Dustin Johnson
- Talor Gooch
- Bryson DeChambeau
- Lee Westwood
- Ian Poulter
Also, one of biggest names in all of golf joined LIV: 51-year-old Phil Mickelson.[4] Dustin Johnson and Mickelson are T8 and T26 for most PGA Tour wins, with 45 and 24 career victories, respectively.[5] Crowd favorite Sergio Garcia, an 11-time PGA and 16-time DP winner, has also joined LIV.[6]
The inaugural tournament has a 54-hole, no-cut, stroke-play format of continuous play such that all are competing at the same time by starting at different holes. The field of 48 features four of the current OWGR top 50:
- 13. Dustin Johnson
- 20. Louis Oosthuizen
- 33. Kevin Na
- 35. Talor Gooch[7]
Management
The famous golfer and longtime Republican Greg Norman is the CEO of LIV, and is known for being pro-player and not one to pander to the [[liberal media.
