LIV Golf adds Arizona, Oklahoma and West Virginia events to 2023 calendar

LIV Golf has added three new events to the circuit’s 2023 schedule, which will take place in Arizona, Oklahoma and West Virginia. Last month, the controversial Saudi Arabia-backed tour announced stops in Mexico, Spain, Singapore and Australia would be included on the calendar next year. Wednesday’s addition of three competitions to take place in the United States means LIV Golf has now revealed half of its 14 planned events for 2023.
