LIV Golf is back in action this week with the field of 48 gathering at The Gallery Golf Club for LIV Golf Tucson, the second of 14 scheduled events this year. The usual suspects are atop the outright odds board with Cameron Smith and Dustin Johnson holding down the top spots. While those two consistently appear at the top, we’ve seen eight different individual champions since LIV Golf de... 

One reason why LIV Golf hasn’t entered the mainstream consciousness of the American betting public is that they just don’t play often enough. Their counterparts on the PGA side play a tournament every week with LIV teeing it up once a month. Well, for this week at least LIV Golf will be on the front burner with the second tournament of the season taking place in the Arizona desert with the L... 

The second season of LIV Golf brings a rebranding, new players and an expanded schedule. It all gets underway this week in Mexico at El Camaleon Golf Course at Mayakoba. One thing that hasn’t changed is the resident at the top of the odds board. Though an injury prevented Dustin Johnson from competing in the Saudi International earlier this month, DJ is back as the co-favorite... 

It’s back. Much to the dismay of the PGA Tour, LIV Golf returns for an expanded second season starting this week south of the border. Can we still use that phrase since there really is no southern border? Anyway, after jetting all over the place in its eight-tournament inaugural season, LIV Golf has expanded to 14 scheduled 54-hole no cut events and rebranded as the LIV Golf League. El Camaleon Golf Course at Mayakoba in Mexico hosts the opener with all the usual suspects competing for vast sums of money. A few more players made the move to LIV with Thomas Pieters, Brendan Steele, Danny Lee and Deam Burmester among them. The most impactful player from last season is back opening as the co-betting favorite. Dustin Johnson raked in a boatload of money and sits with Joaquin Niemann at the top of the odds board. Making things a little more interesting from a betting standpoint are odds for team results. The 48-player field is divided into 12 teams of four players.

The unique season-ending LIV Golf Miami Team Championship comes with a lot of questions from fans, bettors and players themselves. The biggest question is: how does it work? Well, there is no individual component for the entire three-day event with only team members taking on the Trump National Doral course. This is the basic setup for the event that has 12 teams of four players battling for a $50 million purse. The team aspect was used during the season to determine final standings with the top four teams getting a bye into Day 2. That means Nos. 5-12 battle on Oct. 28 in the opening of the three-day competition. Higher seeded teams pick their opponent and the squads compete in head-to-head match play to determine a winner. Two singles matches and a foursomes match take place within each match. There are no ties so each match will play until someone wins. The four teams earning two points move on to the semifinal round. ... 

The second of back-to-back stops concludes with the LIV Golf Invitational Jeddah this week in a return to the Saudi-backed series roots. The final individual competition of the brief season takes place at one of the breathtaking courses in Saudi Arabia, Royal Greens Golf & Country Club. Host to the Saudi International for the past four years, more than half the f... 

I don’t think Dustin Johnson is having second thoughts about making the switch to LIV Golf. On Sunday he became the 2022 individual champion securing another bundle of cash in the process to go along with his signing bonus and earnings from competing. And just like in a number of tournaments this season DJ is positioned at the top of the odds board for this week’s LIV Go... 

With the four-tournament swing through the U.S. complete, LIV Golf Invitational Thailand begins the first set of events in consecutive weeks. The three-day event starts Oct. 7 from the exclusive new Stonehill Golf Club in Bangkok featuring a 48-man field, no cut and a shotgun start. More than halfway through the first season, the Saudi-backed league has had a good ... 

After four tournaments in the States it’s off to Bangkok for this week’s LIV Golf Invitational Thailand. While controversy continues to swirl regarding the Saudi-backed enterprise the golf has been spectacular with the 48-player field ready to put on another show from Oct. 7-9 at the brand new Stonehill Golf Club. The guys favored to win did that the last two event... 

While a number of PGA Tour members are off stealing money from the DP World Tour in Italy this week, the LIV Golf Invitational Chicago will take place at Rich Harvest Farms from Sept. 16-18 with another $4 million awaiting the winner. We see the usual suspects at the top of the odds board with Cameron Smith and Dustin Johnson opening as co-betting favorites. The ou... 

We’re already at the fifth tournament heading down the back slope with LIV Golf Invitational Chicago next on the list. The new Saudi-backed outfit has taken some hits in the media and players have been scolded by other pro leagues, but the play is what’s noteworthy. Coming off the most exciting tournament in its brief history a few weeks ago with Dustin Johnson win... 

Everybody loves an underdog and several of them hit the links this weekend at the LIV Golf Invitational Boston. It’s always easy to look at the top of the odds board and back a favorite since they are expected to perform well. But the real payday comes when a player further down the odds list that you backed triumphs. There is little chance Jediah Morgan rallies to c... 

The new Saudi-backed golf league added several more big names to the roster making the 48-man field for this week’s LIV Golf Invitational Boston the strongest yet. World No. 2 Cameron Smith is the biggest of the bunch and was instantly installed as the betting favorite for the 54-hole tournament at The International Golf Club just outside Boston. Smith is the only pl... 

Let’s be honest the LIV Golf Invitational Series and its players have taken a lot of crap from fellow golfers, the PGA Tour and some hacks in the media. The bottom line is that players get paid to golf just like every professional tour out there, regardless of politics. And if the last tournament is any indication the Saudi-backed startup is headed in the right direction. With the PGA Tour on a brief hiatus after its season-ending tournament, all golfing eyes are on the LIV Golf Invitational Boston this week with 48 players pegging it up at The International Golf Club in Bolton, MA from September 2-4. Making his LIV Golf debut after recently joining the upstart circuit, 2022 Open Champion Cameron Smith is the first player not named Dustin Johnson to top the odds board. But don’t worry, DJ is a close second. Along with Smith, Joaquin Niemann, Harold Varner III, Cameron Tringale, Marc Leishman and Anirban Lahiri will make their Series debuts.

A smaller field than normal professional golf tournaments means fewer waging opportunities, but it’s a much stronger field overall and just a few months ago we didn’t even have the option to wager on the new Saudi-backed golf league. The second tournament of the scheduled eight to be played this season and first of five straight in the U.S. takes place in the Pacific Northwest with the LIV Golf Invitational Portland from the Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club just outside the city. The field has only 48 players, but no cut and only 54 holes makes for a quick finish in matchup betting. And the field is much stronger with former major champions Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau and Patrick Reed joining the lineup. And guess what? All three are included in the matchup odds posted at BookMaker.eu. The first event in London last month was a success, especially for Charl Schwartzel, who took home the $4 million first place prize with a one-shot victory over fellow South African Hennie Du Plessis.

Despite loads of criticism and backlash, including from other golf tours, the LIV Golf Invitational Series continues with its first tournament in the U.S. The field of 48 gathers this week at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club just outside Portland with a familiar name at the top of the odds board. As he was last month in London, Dustin Johnson opened as the betting favorit... 

Dustin Johnson headlines the field for the inaugural LIV Golf event in London, England that begins on Thursday. Johnson recently announced that he is leaving the PGA Tour to compete in LIV Golf events. He is definitely the biggest name, but not the only one, as other recognizable names will be playing in LIV tournaments including Phil Mickelson, Sergio Garcia, Louis Oosthuizen, Kevin Na, Taylor Gooch and others. Johnson is getting the spotlight this week and he is a solid favorite at odds of 4-1 to win this tournament held in the greater London area. Let’s look at LIV Golf Invitational London odds and picks. ...
