With LIV Golf getting a major network deal with FOX Sports, the competition for the world's greatest players vs. the PGA Tour just got a lot stiffer.

The upstart Saudi-backed golf league that sent shockwaves through professional golf four years ago announced a new broadcast rights deal Thursday with Fox Sports.

The league, which is bankrolled by the Saudi sovereign wealth fund and shares close ties with President-elect Donald Trump, will air across Fox properties including the flagship Fox channel, FS1 and Fox Business.

The addition of LIV Golf is a natural fit for Fox Sports’ prominent slate of big events, world-class names and premium sports coverage.”
