This information comes on the heels of a successful LIV Golf Invitational Bangkok, which concluded with a dramatic playoff. The upcoming Riyadh tournament will likely see a similar star-studded field, with players like Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson, and Bryson DeChambeau vying for the championship title.

The format for the Riyadh tournament will remain the same as previous LIV Golf events: a thrilling 54-hole stroke play competition with no cut. This ensures all players compete throughout the weekend, maximising excitement for fans. Additionally, the top 20 players after the first two rounds will advance to the final two rounds, keeping the pressure high and the competition fierce.

This Riyadh event holds particular significance, as it marks LIV Golf's first foray into night golf tournaments, with tee off set for 6.15pm (KSA time) each evening. This means that spectators can expect a visually stunning display with the course illuminated under the night sky, against the backdrop of the Kingdom's capital. This innovative approach to playing in different time zones, further emphasises LIV Golf's commitment to pushing boundaries and creating a more dynamic and entertaining viewing experience.

Beyond the on-course action, the return of LIV Golf to Riyadh solidifies the city's position as a major player in the world of professional golf.

Following the Saudi Arabian leg of LIV, the competition will move to Adelaide in Australia from February 14 - 16, and then on to Hong Kong from March 7 - 9.

What is LIV Golf?

LIV Golf is a professional golf league funded by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF).

Launched in 2022, it quickly garnered significant international attention due to its unique formatting, substantial financial backing and its recruitment of top-tier golfers, including major champions like Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson. LIV Golf features 54-hole, no-cut tournaments with a unique team format, where players compete both individually and as part of four-man teams.

The team format adds a new dynamic to the competition, encouraging camaraderie and strategic team play, making the game exceedingly interesting for both the players and the onlookers. Whilst the allure of significantly larger prize purses than most PGA Tour events ensures the world's best golfers are in play.

In addition to these intriguing game-play quirks, LIV Golf emphasises and ensures entertainment with shorter game formats, on-course music, and a more relaxed atmosphere compared to traditional golf tournaments. These more relax rules has made the game of golf more accessible to those who previously may have felt uneasy or out of place on the course, and this in turn has led to a new and younger tranche of golf fans taking interesting in the game, all around the world.
