In its short history, LIV Golf has made a significant impact on the sport. Since its debut in 2022, it has hosted 34 tournaments across four continents, establishing a global footprint. The 2025 season promises to be LIV Golf’s most ambitious yet, kicking off with the Riyadh event, which will be followed by stops in Adelaide, Hong Kong, and Singapore. This expansion reflects LIV Golf’s commitment to growing the sport and delivering a blend of elite competition, entertainment, and cultural experiences to fans worldwide.
While this will be the first time Riyadh hosts LIV Golf, the tournament is no stranger to Saudi Arabia. The series has previously played three events at the Royal Greens Golf & Country Club near Jeddah, a venue that became a fan favorite for its stunning coastal backdrop. However, the move to Riyadh signals a broader reach for the league and showcases Saudi Arabia’s growing influence in the world of sports, particularly golf.
LIV Golf Commissioner and CEO Greg Norman expressed excitement for the upcoming season, noting that the league’s global reach is stronger than ever. “As we set our sights on 2025, LIV Golf is gearing up for our most ambitious season start to date,” Norman said. “We’re excited to kick off next season with four truly international events that will deliver our unique blend of elite golf, entertainment, and culture to fans around the world.”
Following the Riyadh tournament, LIV Golf will head to Adelaide, Australia, where Talor Gooch and Brendan Steele have previously claimed victory. The tour will then move to Hong Kong in early March before returning to Singapore. Each of these events promises to offer fans not just competitive golf, but also a festival atmosphere with music, activities, and more.
For Riyadh, this event is an exciting opportunity to further establish itself as a global sporting destination. Fans eager to witness the action can start marking their calendars now. Tickets for the 2025 LIV Golf Riyadh event will go on sale starting October 23, 2024, with exclusive pre-sale access available through LIV X.
This milestone event is shaping up to be a highlight of the 2025 sports calendar, with the world’s top golfers battling it out over three thrilling days at Riyadh Golf Club. If past seasons are any indication, LIV Golf Riyadh is sure to deliver an unforgettable experience.
