LIV Golf kicks off Thursday, June 9, at Centurion Club outside of London. Phil Mickelson will make his highly anticipated return to golf, and is slated to compete. He’ll be joined by other PGA Tour and European Tour notables, including Dustin Johnson, Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood and Louis Oosthuizen. The debut event is expected to be broadcast on a variety of online and streaming outlets. Arlo White, a leading voice of the Premier League in the United States, will serve as lead play-by-play caller. Former Golf Channel reporter Jerry Foltz and Asian Tour player Dom Boulet will join White in the booth.
