The LIV Golf has been popular for its experimental nature since its birth. The previous year, while the league selected its players, they didn’t have to go through any selection process, but this year the scenario has changed drastically. The league has become more stringent; if a golfer is performing sub-par, the defector will be permanently relegated from the league. 

Later, these relegated golfers can come back to the league by qualifying for a 72-stroke play tournament that will take place in November. Now, to fill up these spots, LIV is including new golfers. Recently, they found a perfect fit that turned a few heads.
