LIV Golf has announced a significant shift in its tournament structure, moving from the previously established 54-hole format to a more traditional 72-hole format. This change aims to align LIV events with established golf tournaments, enhancing the competitive nature of its offerings.
The decision comes amid ongoing discussions about LIV Golf's place in the broader golf ecosystem, particularly in relation to the PGA Tour and DP World Tour. By adopting a 72-hole format, LIV Golf hopes to attract more players and elevate its status in the eyes of fans and sponsors alike. This move is seen as a strategic effort to solidify its position in the competitive landscape of professional golf.
