The LIV Golf series returns this week for their fourth event, as the latest big names that have defected from the PGA Tour will be on hand. With the PGA Tour season over, LIV Golf will take center stage in the golf scene over the next few months.
While nothing has been signed as of Tuesday evening, it’s widely speculated that the current No. 2 and No. 19 players in the world, Cam Smith and Joquin Niemann, will potentially head to LIV as soon as this week. For Niemann, at 23 years of age, he’d be the youngest PGA Tour winner to sign with the new league, giving them one more notch on their international belt of players.
In addition to Niemann and PGA Championship winner Smith, veteran Marc Leishman is also expected to jump, giving LIV the two most popular Australians in golf. With Niemann, Smith and Leishman joining an already star-studded cast that includes Dustin Johnson, Bryson DeChambeau, Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson, let’s take a closer at how things might shake out in Boston this week.
