The LIV Golf League has announced the much-anticipated return of LIV Golf Promotions—a prestigious gateway for elite players worldwide to secure their place in the 2025 LIV Golf League and The International Series.

This year’s tournament unfolds at Riyadh Golf Club, Saudi Arabia, from December 12–14. Featuring four rounds of stroke play over three days, it all builds to an intense 36-hole finale on the last day, where the top finisher wins a coveted spot in the LIV Golf League 2025. The top 10 finishers will earn full exemption to compete across The International Series in 2025, sanctioned by the Asian Tour, and share in the event’s $1.5 million prize purse.

LIV Golf Commissioner and CEO Greg Norman captures the excitement, saying: “‘Those who have competed in the LIV Golf League consistently share similar feedback: the energy, camaraderie, and global competition have created a once-in-a-lifetime experience for players to pursue their dreams at the highest level,’ saidLIV Golf Commissioner and CEO Greg Norman.

“LIV Golf Promotions delivers another pathway for up-and-coming players and top competitors across the globe to experience a life-changing season with LIV, and we’re eager to see who steps up this year in Riyadh.”

The Format

Starting December 12, players face a four-round, 18-hole stroke play setup. On day one, those finishing in the top 20 and ties move on to round two.

After scores reset, an additional category of pre-qualified players will join for Friday’s competition. The top 20 players from this round proceed to the final day—a grueling 36-hole shootout where the stakes are high: $200,000 for the top winner and a spot in the 2025.

Beyond direct qualification, LIV Golf Promotions introduces high-stakes competition for relegated players and those seeking renewed rights for the 2025 season.
