This week LIV Golf Korea marks the eighth tournament of the season, marking the start of the five final regular season events before a team championship in Michigan ends the tumultuous year in late August.
This also is the eighth country LIV Golf has visited this year and the second time to Korea although last year the event was at Jack Nicklaus golf Club in Incheon. Asaid Country Club this week is the 32nd different course to host a LIV Golf tournament.
Jon Rahm tied for second place at the PGA Championship and is the individual points leader ahead of Bryson DeChambeau. Dustin Johnson’s 4Aces team leads the team standings ahead of Cam Smith’s Ripper squad and Rahm’s Legion XIII.
Ripper’s Lucas Herbert won his first LIV Golf title earlier this month in Virginia, the last time the league held an event.
