LIV Golf adds three events in U.S. to 2023 schedule

LIV Golf announced Wednesday that it will host three additional events at U.S. cities that weren’t on its inaugural schedule this past year. 

In 2023, the breakaway tour will visit the Gallery Golf Club in Tucson, Arizona, in March; Cedar Ridge Country Club in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in May; and The Greenbrier in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, in August. 

“LIV Golf’s expansion to new U.S. markets adds to the growing excitement for the league launch in 2023,” LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman said in a statement. “More fans across the country and around the globe will experience the LIV Golf energy and innovative competition that has reinvigorated the sport, and these championship courses will contribute to the transformative season ahead for players, fans and the game of golf.”

The tour, which is funded by Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, is also visiting three other U.S. cities at courses owned by former President Donald Trump. Events will be held at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in New Jersey, Trump National Golf Club Washington D.C. in Sterling, Virginia, and Trump National Doral in Miami. 

International events being added to LIV’s slate include stops in Mexico in February, Australia in April, Singapore in April and Spain in the summer. 

LIV’s schedule will run its 14-event schedule from February to September, and it is not expected to interfere with the dates for the major championships.
