LIV Golf is about to stage its first ever qualifying school.
The Saudi-backed league will make its first big step towards becoming a merit-based circuit with the inaugural LIV Golf Promotions event at the Abu Dhabi Golf Club from December 8-10.
Over 70 players will tee it up in a unique 72-hole strokeplay tournament with three spots up for grabs on LIV’s roster for 2024.
Notable names in the field include former PGA Championship winner Jason Dufner and ex-Ryder Cup players Victor Dubuisson and Jeff Overton.
Laurie Canter, who was a reserve on the Majesticks GC team co-captained by Ian Poulter, Lee Westwood and Henrik Stenson in 2023, will bid to secure his full status as a LIV player.
Meanwhile, Sihwan Kim, Chase Koepka, Jed Morgan, and James Piot, who were the first four players ever relegated from LIV, will aim to regain their spot for next season.
A handful of players, including Dufner and Canter, are exempt from “Round One”, where the top 20 and ties from Friday’s first round advance into the second stage.
The players with exemptions then enter in round two, where the same number of players qualify for a 36-hole shootout on Sunday, with three lucrative LIV spots on the line.
“LIV Golf Promotions creates an open pathway for players to compete in the LIV Golf League, and the interest shown in the event’s inaugural year reinforces the significance of these new opportunities for the sport,” said CEO Greg Norman.
“There is exceptional talent from all corners of the globe and LIV Golf is establishing a platform for these current and rising stars of the game to build their careers in new, exciting ways. LIV Golf’s future is bright, and our anticipation grows to see which competitors will be part of this game-changing league in 2024.”
