LIV Golf returns this week with its fifth stop of the season, which is scheduled to take place in Miami. The event will serve as a prelude to the first major of the season for the circuit players, as The Masters will be played just one week later.
LIV Golf Miami will be played at the Blue Monster Course at Trump National Doral. It is a 7,701-yard, par-72 course designed by renowned architect Dick Wilson (Bay Hill, The Greenbrier, PGA National).
The course was inaugurated in 1962 and has hosted several important tournaments, including two on the LIV Golf calendar. The Doral Championship of the PGA Tour was played there between 1962 and 2006, as well as the World Golf Championship - Cadillac Championship between 2007 and 2016. The 2022 and 2023 LIV Team Championships were also played there.
Trump National Doral has hosted other tournaments, such as the Shell Tour Championship of the PGA Tour Latinoamérica and The Office Depot tournament of the LPGA Tour.
The course record is 61 and has been held by Stephen Ames since 2000. Current LIV stars Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson and Patrick Reed, as well as Greg Norman himself, have all won at least once at Doral. Bubba Watson has finished second three times there.
The event will have the added attraction of being Anthony Kim's first official start in the United States, following his return to professional golf after 12 years away from competitive activity.
