Valderrama will host the LIV Golf Andalucia event in 2025, marking the third time this historic venue has hosted this event.
In 2024, Sergio Garcia and the Fireballs won on home turf after Garcia beat Anirban Lahiri of the Crushers in an exciting playoff in Spain.
The LIV Golf Andalucia event is booked in the same week as the Genesis Scottish Open on the PGA Tour at Renaissance, which has a purse of $9,000,000 and also, the ISCO Championship. Robert MacIntyre won the Scottish Open in 2024.
So far in the LIV Golf League, a variety of players have starred. Adrian Meronk won the season-opener in Riyadh, Niemann won in Adelaide, and Sergio Garcia won in Hong Kong. Niemann then doubled his tally for 2025 in Singapore, so it has been a super year for the Chilean so far. Bryson DeChambeau won in Korea shortly before playing well at the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow again.

The Scottish Open and the ISCO Championship also sit on the DP World Tour as co-sanctioned events in the same week as LIV Golf Andalucia. There is an LPGA Tour event in the same week. It is the Amundi Evian Championship, a major held in France, which has a purse of $8 million.
While the payouts for LIV Golf events are $20 million, the total is $25 million, as there is $5 million divided among the winning teams. The winning team at the LIV Golf Korea event, for example, DeChambeau’s Crushers, earned $750,000 each, but that is invested back in the team.
The four-man squad in second place, Smash, earned $375,000 a piece, and the team in third, Torque, earned $125,000 each, but as we’ve said, this figure gets invested back into the team. It is believed it doesn’t go in the players’ pockets.
