The two most recent LIV Golf champions, Cameron Smith and Dustin Johnson, will lead a stellar field for the LIV Golf Invitational Bangkok at Stonehill from October 7-9.
The Chicago and Boston individual winners respectively, Smith and DJ are in the running for the inaugural Individual Championship title, with Johnson leading the way and Australian Smith surging into third thanks to a T4 in Boston before claiming the Chicago crown at Rich Harvest Farms.
LIV Golf on Tuesday revealed the 48-man field for the Thailand event, the sixth on the 2022 calendar, with four former world No. 1s and 12 major champions competing for the $25 million purse, including Phil Mickelson, Brooks Koepka, Henrik Stenson, Bryson DeChambeau and Patrick Reed.
“The LIV Golf Invitational Bangkok marks a significant step for LIV Golf in Asia, a massive market with incredible passion for the sport,” said Greg Norman, CEO and Commissioner of LIV Golf. “Our investment in the Asian Tour with the International Series has already begun to create new opportunities in golf. This tournament in Thailand is further proof of LIV Golf’s commitment to showcasing top competition amongst the best golfers on the planet while connecting with new audiences around the world. Excitement continues to build with each event, and we can’t wait to deliver a memorable tournament at Stonehill, a one-of-a-kind venue.”
