The inaugural LIV Golf Invitational Series takes place at the Centurion Golf Club in London.
The massive three-day, 54-hole, no-cut money event is June 9-11, with Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson, Sergio Garcia, Ian Poulter, and others leading the field.
Banners at the event included phrases such as “Welcome to the future” and “Golf but louder.”
There is no TV deal for the league, so fans had to watch a live stream on LIV Golf’s YouTube channel to see the action.
But it didn’t take long after the renegade new league started before PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan sent a warrant suspending golfers who chose to play in the new league.
Check out some photos from the new breakaway league.
