Since its inception in 2021, LIV Golf has enticed numerous top players from the PGA Tour, offering lucrative financial packages and a reduced playing schedule. While players such as Phil Mickelson and Jon Rahm have already joined the Saudi-backed league, the allure of massive payouts continues to attract attention from more professionals.
With the 2025 season approaching, speculations are rife that several prominent PGA Tour players may make the switch, lured by the opportunity for higher earnings and fewer commitments.
Among those rumored to be considering a move are Viktor Hovland, Hideki Matsuyama, and Adam Scott. While Hovland recently expressed hesitation due to his age and career trajectory, Matsuyama has reportedly been a key target for LIVâs leadership.
Adam Scott, a seasoned PGA Tour veteran, has also been linked with LIV, although his role on the PGAâs policy board could complicate such a transition. With the ongoing battle for talent between the two leagues, it remains to be seen how many of these players will make the jump in 2025.
