Golf fans in Gauteng, get ready to celebrate - the high-energy LIV Golf tour is on its way to South Africa. Known for shaking things up in the world of golf, LIV Golf brings together world-class competition and entertainment in a modern take on the traditional sport. If you are curious about this innovative tournament and how you can experience it for yourself, then keep reading - here's everything you need to know.

What's this LIV Golf experience all about?

LIV Golf is a professional golf league that brings together the world's top golfers for tournaments around the globe. The brainchild of a group of golf enthusiasts who wanted to give the sport a fresh new look, LIV Golf is all about breaking the mold - featuring fast-paced tournaments with a shorter schedule, a unique team component, and a lot more pace than your average golf tournament.

Unlike your run-of-the-mill golf tournaments that usually go on for four days with an emphasis on individual players, LIV Golf combines the team element with individual action - creating a truly electric atmosphere both on and off the course. Each event is squeezed into just three days, and features live music, fan zones, and hospitality experiences galore, making LIV Golf as appealing to non-golf fans as it is to those who live and breathe the sport.
