World No.2 Cameron Smith is finally heading to LIV Golf — and he is not alone.

The Australian will be joined by compatriot Marc Leishman and the top player under the age of 25 — Joaquin Neimann — when the new series tees off its fourth event at The International, Bolton, Massachusetts, this week.

Smith had widely been reported to be joining LIV Golf ever since his Open Championship win at St Andrews in July — something he has never denied — and reports suggest he has signed on for $100 million.
Chilean Niemann will also be in the field after his manger Carlos Rodriguez confirmed to AP that he is on the way.
Niemann is the highest-ranked player in the world under the age of 25 and, along with Smith, will be regarded as a big miss on the PGA Tour, who have suspended any players who compete in LIV Golf.
Leishman will be one of a number of Australians in the LIV Golf ranks as CEO Greg Norman looks to put an Antipodean team together, to line up alongside Dustin Johnson’s all-American 4 Aces, the Spanish-speaking Fireballs the Japanese Torque and the cream of Europe at Majesticks.
Also joining up for Boston is India star Anirban Lahiri and American Harold Varner III.
Here is the full line-up for the fourth LIV Golf event at The international.
