Rumours have been circulating that the Saudi-backed LIV Golf is teeing up an event in Christchurch, possibly as early as next year.

The Herald understands LIV Golf has been looking at the possibility of bringing a high-profile tournament to Christchurch Golf Club to New Zealand’s second oldest club.

Christchurch Golf Club general manager Mike Hadley confirmed to the Herald that LIV Golf officials have “visited” the course but as yet, “there’s been no follow-up”.

Jeff Latch, Golf NZ CEO, told Mike Hosking that the LIV event in Adelaide has really taken off, with LIV arguing that it’s probably their best event around the world.

He said they understand they’re looking to move that event from April to February, and while they’re down in the Southern Hemisphere, there’s potential for there to be New Zealand events adjacent to the Australian events.
