The LIV Golf United Kingdom (formerly LIV Golf London) is a golf tournament that is held in the United Kingdom. The inaugural tournament was held in June 2022 at the Centurion Club near Hemel Hempstead, England, as part of the LIV Golf Invitational Series, a golf series led by Greg Norman and funded by the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund. The 2022 48-player field included Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson, Sergio García, and Kevin Na.[2] [3]
Charl Schwartzel won the inaugural event, finishing one shot ahead of Hennie du Plessis.[4]
The tournament was a 54-hole individual stroke play event, with a team element. Four man teams were selected via a draft by their designated team captains, with a set number of their total scores counting for the team on each day. Each round commenced with a shotgun start, with the leaders beginning on the first hole for the final round, in order to finish on the eighteenth.[5]
48 golfers participated in the inaugural LIV London event. 43 players were invited, with the remaining five qualifying through the Asian Tour's International Series; three through an order of merit and the two highest finishers in the International Series England not already in the field.[6]
