Quiz: Name the LIV Golf players in 2023
By Matt Coles
50 golfers played on the LIV tour in 2023, but how many of those names can you remember?
The 2023 LIV Golf season saw 14 events taking place across seven countries, with a total of 50 players featuring.
It was the second season for the Saudi-backed league, and the first that saw players contracted to teams.
48 players were contracted to the 12 teams, with points for performances going towards both an individual and teams championship.
Nine players took victories, with three players winning multiple times over the course of the 2023 season.
It was also the first time that promotion and relegation came into the sport of golf, with the bottom four in the standings being ditched from the league for next year.
Due to injuries, two extra players came in for a number of events, making it 50 players on the LIV Golf tour in 2023. Can you name them all on our quiz, powered by Sporcle?

Mention a European country, and Matt will tell you which resorts make the National Club Golfer Top 100s: European Resorts list. He might even throw in who designed the golf course and how many rooms the hotel has got at each one…
Matt got into the game of golf from a young age, following his old man to the local golf club. He fell for the sport, and now can’t seem to go a day without thinking about how to improve his game (Thanks Dad!). Matt has been a member of Howley Hall GC in Leeds since 2020, and is just about managing to maintain a single-figure handicap. He likes to remind people that he once broke 75, but won’t tell people that it was on a shortened course during the winter.
He moved to Leeds after graduating from the University of Central Lancashire with a First Class Honours degree in Sports Journalism. Matt joined NCG after almost five years travelling the world with the Professional Squash Association, working on events in all four corners of the globe.
Matt currently plays a Cobra King LTDx driver and RadSpeed 3-wood. TaylorMade monopolise the rest of his bag, with a SIM UDI, M5 irons and both Milled Grind and HI-TOE wedges, along with a Monza Redline putter. He uses a Vice Pro Plus golf ball, because he’s a bit different…
Away from golf, Matt is a Manchester United fan, and a keen runner, having ran the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon (his first and possibly last), in May 2023.
