LIV Golf’s Revolutionary Format Lands in Mexico City – A Latin American Showcase

Mexico City is set to host a landmark event as LIV Golf, the league that has fundamentally reshaped the world of professional golf, makes its debut in the vibrant city. Starting April 25th, the league will battle it out over three days at the prestigious Chapultepec Golf Club – the only Latin American headquarters for the series. This marks a significant expansion for LIV Golf, bringing its high-octane, team-based format and unparalleled level of competition to a new audience.

Since its inception in 2022, LIV Golf has been nothing short of revolutionary. With a roster of 54 players competing across 13 teams, the league’s unique point system creates an atmosphere of constant pressure and intense rivalries. Forget traditional individual tournaments; LIV Golf is built on team dynamics and strategic gameplay, shifting the emphasis from individual performance to collective success.

A Team Rooted in Latin American Passion

What truly sets this event apart is the presence of Torque GC, LIV Golf’s only team composed entirely of Latin American talent. Captained by the Chilean legend, Joaquín Niemann, the team features a formidable lineup including Mito Pereira from Peru and Sebastián Muñoz from Colombia. Adding to their strength is Carlos Ortiz, representing Mexico, who earned a spot on the team after a standout performance in the International Series Macau – a victory that also secured him a coveted berth in The Open Championship.

“It is a very special date for us, as a 100% Latino team,” said Carlos Ortiz. “It’s not just about competition; we have the opportunity to inspire younger people to practice this sport and continue to grow in the region.”

A Unique Competitive Format

LIV Golf’s format is a significant departure from traditional golf. The league comprises 14 events throughout the season, each a three-day tournament. Crucially, the points system rewards team performance, not just individual scores. This creates a dynamic where players must collaborate and strategically support their teammates to achieve collective victory. As of 2025, the ‘King of Green’ – the individual with the most points – is crowned at the end of each season.

“For us, work is fundamental,” stated Joaquín Niemann, Torque GC’s captain. “We know that we are the greatest Latin representation in the league, and the strength of the team comes from the unity. No one is left behind.”

Torque GC’s success extends beyond its homegrown talent. Last year, the team demonstrated its prowess with a triumphant performance in the Houston tournament, marking the first time a Latin American team secured a top-three finish in LIV Golf history. Furthermore, Carlos Ortiz recently secured a coveted spot in The Open Championship after winning the International Series Macau – a tournament that underscored his rising status on the global stage.

LIV Golf’s arrival in Mexico City represents a significant milestone for the league and a promising opportunity for Latin American golfers to shine on the international stage. With a dynamic format, passionate teams, and a growing global fanbase, LIV Golf is undoubtedly reshaping the future of professional golf.
