Seven Network retains global golf rights in multi-year extension

LIV Golf, the so-called super league of the global golfing world, will again be airing on the Seven Network, with the station retaining the broadcast rights for every round of the 2025 league.

The controversial men’s golf tour was launched in mid-2022 by Public Investment Fund, Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund. Many of the world’s biggest players were lured to the league by the vast financial prizes for grabs – reminding many Australians of the Super League incursion of the 1990s that tore the local rugby league competition into two.

Seven’s coverage of the tournament begins with LIV Golf Riyadh from 6 – 8 February and then LIV Golf Adelaide from February 14-16, live from The Grange Golf Club.
