While LIV Golf and the PGA Tour operate on separate tracks for much of the year, major championships are when the sport's best finally converge. The second major of the season, the 2025 PGA Championship, will once again bring stars from both leagues together.
This year's PGA takes place at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, from May 15 to 18, and features 15 full-time LIV Golf players — plus one reserve — in the field. Some earned their spots through recent performances in majors, others through past PGA titles or exemptions via the LIV Golf circuit or senior events.
Here's a look at the LIV Golfers competing in the 2025 PGA Championship: LIV Golfers playing in the PGA Championship
The first round of the 2025 PGA Championship will begin on Thursday, May 15th.

Wyndham Clark's Berserk Act at Oakmont Leads to Career-Ruining Punishment

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Just hours before the showdown at Royal Portrush, mood across the Open Championship field is split. Some players are grinding to peak for the final major of the season, while others, like Scottie Scheffler, are questioning life and golf ahead of the first round. But in the case of three-time PGA Tour winner Wyndham Clark, it is far from routine. On Tuesday, several sources reported that Clark has been banned from Oakmont Country Club, the site where JJ Spun lifted the U.S. Open trophy last month.

(Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images) More Getty Images The decision stems from Clark's locker-room outburst after missing the cut at the course by a single stroke. He carded back-to-back 74s, finishing eight over, and bogeyed the final hole to seal his early exit. What followed was a moment of berserk that spiraled into this career-altering incident. According to multiple reports, Clark damaged several lockers in the historic clubhouse, with photos of the destruction quickly going viral. 🚨🥾🚪 #NEW: Wyndham Clark allegedly damaged several lockers in the change room at Oakmont Country Club following a missed cut, per @TronCarterNLU. Additionally, Clark recently destroyed a T-mobile sign at the PGA Championship not long ago. Is this behaviour acceptable? — NUCLR GOLF (@NUCLRGOLF) June 15, 2025 "I made a mistake that I deeply regret. I'm very sorry for what happened," Clark said during the Travelers Championship, but Oakmont officials are firm on their decision to punish the 31-year-old with this life lesson. Can Wyndham Clark ever play at the Oakmont Country Club again? In short, yes. The ban, while permanent, includes a conditional path to reinstatement. Clark must pay for damages, make charitable donations, and complete counseling. The club, which will host the U.S. Open again in 2033, made it clear that its legacy and standards were non-negotiable. This isn't Clark's first emotional misstep. At this year's PGA Championship, he snapped his driver and damaged a sponsor sign after a poor tee shot. "I hold myself to a high standard ... and (on the day of the incident) I fell short of those standards," he wrote in a separate apology. The fallout is already impacting Clark's season. He enters The Open with just one top-10 finish in 19 starts, and sits 78th in the FedEx Cup standings. His odds to win at Portrush are long, and his reputation, once bolstered by his 2023 U.S. Open win, now carries the weight of controversy.

Oakmont bans former U.S. Open champ Wyndham Clark for locker damage

July 16 (UPI) -- Oakmont Country Club has banned former U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark because of damage he caused to his locker, club president John Lynch said in a letter to members. Lynch said the ban can be rescinded if Clark pays for the damage and seeks counseling and/or attends anger management sessions. Clark smashed his locker in frustration after missing the cut during the major championship last month in Oakmont, Pa. He later apologized and offered to pay for the damage, which was shown in photos posted on social media. "Following multiple discussions with the USGA and the OCC Board, a decision has been made that Mr. Clark will no longer be permitted on OCC property," Lynch said in the letter obtained by multiple outlets, including Golf Digest. "Reinstatement would be contingent upon Mr. Clark fulfilling a number of specific conditions, including full repayment for damages, a meaningful contribution to a charity of the board's choosing, and the successful completion of counseling and/or anger management sessions." Clark, who won the 2023 U.S. Open, fired matching 4-over par 74s in the first two rounds of the 2025 edition of the tournament. Players who failed to make the cut at the U.S. Open were still guaranteed payments of $10,000, but missed out on the bulk of the tournament's $21.5 million purse. Winner J.J. Spaun received $4.3 million. Clark, 31, followed his U.S. Open victory with a tie for 33rd at the 2023 British Open. He missed the cut at the 2024 Masters, PGA Championship and British Open. Clark tied for 56th at the 2024 U.S. Open. He tied for 46th at the 2025 Masters and tied for 50th at the 2025 PGA Championship before missing the cut at Oakmont. "I've had a lot of highs and lows in my career, especially this year some lows," Clark said last month at the Travelers Championship. "I made a mistake that I deeply regret. I'm very sorry for what happened. "But I'd also like to move on, not only for myself but for Oakmont, for the USGA, and kind of focus on the rest of the year and things that come up." Clark sits at No. 28 in the Official World Golf Ranking.

1 of these 9 golfers will win the 2025 British Open

It's the final major of the 2025: The Open at Royal Portrush, or as it's known stateside, the British Open. That means it's time for some links golf! And if you're here, you're probably looking for some advice on picks. That's why it's time for our usual take for a major: one of these golfers WILL win the 2025 British Open. (OK fine, so J.J. Spaun wasn't on our list for the U.S. Open. Our apologies!) We know some of these names may be obvious, but that's just how it is for a major. Obviously, the world's best golfer will be on the list, but so will some names who aren't among the favorites. Let's run through the nine golfers who could win it all by the end of Sunday: Scottie Scheffler Always have to count in the best golfer on the planet, even after a T8 at the Scottish Open. Call that a rehearsal for what could be dominance. Rory McIlroy History? Check (a win in 2014, a bunch of top-six finishes). Form? Check (he looked good at the Scottish Open). I think he's primed for a big week. Jon Rahm The recent form is there with some really good LIV finishes. He finished inside the top-15 at each of the last three majors. I'd say that's more than enough to tab him as a contender. Tyrrell Hatton He was so close at the U.S. Open, he finished T6 in 2019 at the British Open ... I really like the resume here. Shane Lowry Pardon me for being unoriginal, but Lowry is a winner of this major (2019) and finished sixth last year. I'm ignoring the MC at the U.S. Open and the PGA and instead focusing on how his game can do well at Royal Portrush. Matt Fitzpatrick OK, so I'm focusing here on recent form and ignoring British Open history for him. Dude is on fire with a T8 at the PGA and two recent top-10s. Look out for him this week. Russell Henley That fifth-place finish last year was nice. So is the fact that he's gone T5 at the Memorial, T10 at the U.S. Open and T2 at the Travelers. Justin Rose He's been all over the place. He was so close at the Masters, then MC'd at the U.S. Open and PGA. A sixth-place finish at the Scottish Open is noteworthy... as is his T2 at this tournament a year ago. I'm happy to put him on this list given all of that. Viktor Hovland I'm a little uneasy here, but the dude has a T12, T4 and T13 on his British Open resume. That U.S. Open third place gives me a little bit more confidence, though. I like him as a dark horse.
