LIV Golf announces own version of PGA Creator Classic

LIV Golf is doing one more thing similar to the PGA Tour. After last year’s success with the Creator Classic, the Tour brought it back at the Players Championship in 2025. Now, LIV is mirroring them by introducing their own version with a few slight differences.

LIV Golf announces The Duels

LIV Golf confirmed on Wednesday that it would be introducing its own version of the PGA Tour’s Creator Classic. Ahead of the April 5 LIV Golf Miami, tournament, The Duels: Miami will debut. It will have six LIV Golf pros teaming with six content creators for a nine-hole scramble round.

These are the confirmed teams: Sergio Garcia and George Bryan; Bubba Watson and Luke Kwon; Joaquin Niemann and Rick Shiels; Phil Mickelson and Grant Horvat; Dustin Johnson and Wesley Bryan; and Cameron Smith and Fat Perez.

Interestingly enough, Wesley Bryan is currently a member of the PGA Tour. This showcases how much the divide between the Tour and LIV has shrunk in recent years. Additionally, The Bryan Bros, Grant Horvat and Fat Perez competed in the Creator Classic at the Players earlier this year.

LIV Golf Chief Marketing Officer Adam Harter said in a release via Golfweek, “At LIV Golf, we champion bold, new approaches to the game, and The Duels is a perfect example of how golf continues to evolve and engage fans. We love what the creator community has done for this game and this event is a way to celebrate the creativity and passion that fuels the modern golf community while connecting them with the most exciting elite golfers on the planet.”

In furthering their partnership with content creators, the event will be exclusively streamed on Grant Horvat’s YouTube page. Mason Nutt, Andrew Santino, Joey Demare, and Robby Berger will serve as on-ground commentators for the event.

LIV teams with participating members will have exclusive content in the lead-up to the event next month in Miami. Miami marks LIV’s last tournament outing before the Masters, which will feature several members of the rebel tour.
