LIV Golf Stars Gear Up for The Open Championship at Portrush in 2025
As the countdown begins for the 2025 Open Championship at the iconic Royal Portrush Golf Club, an unprecedented contingent of 19 LIV Golf players is preparing to make their mark on one of the sport’s most hallowed stages. This impressive tally underlines LIV Golf’s growing influence on major championships and has set the scene for what promises to be a fiercely contested tournament in Northern Ireland.
Among the headline names from the LIV Golf League making the cut are four-time major winner Brooks Koepka, 2022 Open Champion Cameron Smith, and former world number one Dustin Johnson. The talented Joaquin Niemann and seasoned competitor Bryson DeChambeau also feature, bringing both youth and experience to the field.
Several players qualified based on previous major victories, top finishes on the LIV Golf points standings, and other world-class performances. The group represents a major presence among the traditional field, with players from over a dozen countries and multiple continents.
“For all of us on the LIV Golf roster, the Open is circled on the calendar. Portrush will test every aspect of your game,” stated one of the leading qualifiers. The famed links course, which last hosted the championship in 2019, is revered for its challenging weather, rolling dunes, and fervent crowds.
Debuting at The Open this year are Talor Gooch, Dean Burmester, and Adrian Meronk, adding fresh faces to the competition. Veterans like Louis Oosthuizen and Phil Mickelson also bolster the credentials of the LIV delegation.
With the tournament’s fabled history and the global spotlight now shining on Portrush, the LIV Golf stars are hoping not only to contend but to inspire fans and reshape the narrative of professional golf’s new era. As the field prepares to compete for the coveted Claret Jug, all eyes will be on how these 19 trailblazers from LIV Golf perform on golf’s grandest stage.
