LIV Golf will officially start its fourth season on February 6 in Saudi Arabia, and ahead of that, Mickelson's HyFlyers signed an apparel deal with Primo. He opened up about the team, saying, via LIV Golf:

“I was challenged to wear the Primo joggers at the Open Championship after losing a match against Primo ambassador Grant Horvat. It turned out to be a game-changer. As I said, I wasn’t sure I could pull off wearing the cool, fashionable joggers but I have fallen in love with them and the rest of Primo’s outstanding product line. I’m excited the HyFlyers will be rocking them during our season."

LIV Golf has also signed a broadcasting deal with Fox Sports for the 2025 season ahead of its start.

Meanwhile, in the last season on LIV Golf, Phil Mickelson recorded some decent finishes on the Saudi Circuit. He started the campaign with T51 at Mayakoba but soon improved his game and tied for sixth in Jeddah. Some of his notable finishes in 2024 were T22 in Singapore, T27 at Andalucía, and T23 in Chicago.
