The LIV Golf Tour is hosting its fifth tournament of the current season in South Africa, taking place at Steyn City in Johannesburg on March 16, 2026. This event has attracted major international stars, with the individual winner set to receive $4 million and the winning team $3 million to be shared among its members.
Among the prominent golfers participating are Bryson DeChambeau, who recently won the LIV tournament in Singapore, and other major winners like Jon Rahm, Cameron Smith, and Dustin Johnson. South African golfers such as Louis Oosthuizen, Dean Burmester, Branden Grace, and Charl Schwartzel are also competing, marking a significant gathering of talent.
This tournament is particularly noteworthy as it brings together many major winners in South Africa, a rarity since the days of the old ‘Million Dollar’ event at Sun City. Dean Burmester expressed optimism about the team’s performance, stating, “We are getting closer and closer to a good team performance,” and added, “It feels like we are starting to gel, with all four of us having a solid week.”
In the previous LIV Golf tournament held in Singapore, the Southern Guards team finished fifth, indicating a competitive spirit among the participants. Bryson DeChambeau, reflecting on his recent victory, shared, “A lot of emotion right now,” while also acknowledging the challenges of winning, saying, “You never want to win that way – I’ll be the first to admit that.”
The LIV Golf Tour aims to bring major international stars to South African fairways, a rarity in recent years. As the tournament approaches, observers are eager to see how the players will perform on home soil and whether any surprises await in the competition.
Details remain unconfirmed.
