The 150th Open Championship winner Cameron Smith is the newest addition to the Saudi Arabian-backed LIV Golf Invitational Series. He teed off at The International Golf Club in Boston on Thursday this week, his debut and league’s fourth event. According to reports, the league has offered approximately $100 million to the world no. 2 golfer. 

Like the other league players, there have been rumors that LIV Golf has offered millions to the Australian professional golfer to play in the Series. $100 million is an attractive offer. However, it will not be an easy task for the golfer if he actually wants to acquire the money.

All about the LIV Golf contract

The players had to sign a contract with LIV Golf to play in its Invitational Series. And the details about some of the players’ contracts have been released recently by Wall Street Journal. According to them, there are a couple of conditions that a golfer needs to complete to receive the offered money. 

The contract demands the right to “exhibit, exploit, copy, reproduce, and otherwise use” the golfer’s images and videos. Notably, Phil Mickelson, a LIV rebel, alleged that the PGA Tour is using his face to make money before joining the LIV Series. However, the league contract also says the same.

LIV golfers, including Cameron Smith, are required to play in all the events the league officials schedule for them. Notably, the PGA Tour doesn’t have a strict rule on which golf event a golfer has to attend per season. Furthermore, the contract also demands the players to promote league activities even if they retire from professional golfing. 

The contract also specified that players have to wear Team apparel while playing golf. Moreover, the golfers can only add one logo of their equipment sponsors, that too, on the right side of their hats. If a golfer needs to display more than one logo, he requires approval from the league officials. 

What else does Cameron Smith need to do to get his $100 million? 

According to the contract conditions, the golfer can’t talk about the league during any of their interviews. The players also have to recruit more players to play in the league. Notably, American golfer, Hudson Swafford’s contract has demanded him to be part of a documentary. 

It is unknown whether the world no. 2, Smith’s contract specifies the same conditions. However, he would also have similar conditions that need to be fulfilled if he wants the offered money.
