2022 LIV Golf Invitational Series

The 2022 LIV Golf Invitational Series was the inaugural season of LIV Golf. The season consisted of seven 54-hole tournaments, featuring 48 players and no cut, with a team championship event at the season end.

Development

On 17 March 2022, the first eight tournament schedule with prize money of was announced by Greg Norman. The 54-hole tournaments had no cut and featured 48 players drafted into 12 four-man teams, with shotgun starts. The first seven events had $20 million purses with an additional $5 million split among the top three teams each week; a team championship concluded the schedule with a $30 million on offer to the top three players and an additional $50 million in team prizes.

Broadcasting

LIV Golf broadcast events on its website and on its own YouTube and Facebook pages. Arlo White served as lead broadcaster with pundits Jerry Foltz and Dom Boulet. Su-Ann Heng served as an on-course reporter and Troy Mullins was billed as both on-course reporter and influencer for the tour. In July, it was confirmed that David Feherty would be leaving NBC Sports to join the LIV Golf broadcast team.
In the U.S., LIV Golf attempted to buy time on Fox as its broadcaster, but were unable to reach an agreement. All of the remaining major television networks in the U.S. have ties to the PGA Tour's media rights, and Turner Sports was under the purview of Warner Bros. Discovery, which served as the tour's major broadcaster overseas, which would have effectively prevented them from airing LIV Golf due to its animosity. Likewise, PGA Tour media partners largely avoided direct references to LIV during golf telecasts, only discussing it from a critical perspective.
