Stenson, 46, became official after earlier in the day being dropped as the European Ryder Cup captain. The Swede won the 2016 British Open at Royal Troon and had been named Ryder Cup captain in March.
Kokrak, ranked 36th in the world, gives LIV another top-50 player and fills out the 48-man field for the event at Trump Bedminster in New Jersey.
The three newest players have also been assigned to teams: Stenson with
Englishman Paul Casey, announced earlier in the month as a LIV Golf signee, also will make his debut next week.
"Henrik Stenson adds yet another outstanding resume to LIV Golf’s global roster of elite players. His career performances spanning majors, season-long individual championships and international competitions have cemented him as a leader in today’s game,” said Greg Norman, CEO and Commissioner of LIV Golf.
“The addition of Jason Kokrak, who has been consistently ranked amongst the world’s best, and Charles Howell III, one of the United States’ top competitors for years, along with English standout Paul Casey further strengthens a field that will put on a show for the fans at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster. I’m excited for the third LIV Golf competition and can’t wait for our shotgun start at this fantastic venue.”
