Two-time major champion Dustin Johnson has joined the list of PGA rebels heading for the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Invitational Series, which kicks off at the Centurion Club in St. Albans on June 9.
Johnson said in February that he was "fully committed" to the PGA Tour but has now been named as one of 42 players ready to compete in Hertfordshire this month. That contingent also includes Sergio Garcia, Louis Oosthuizen, as well as British stars Lee Westwood and Ian Poulter.
Phil Mickelson—who has become closely associated with the Saudi-funded breakaway competition—isn't on the start list but could join as one of six players still to be confirmed by June 6. The first of eight LIV Golf Invitational events will feature a $25million (£19.8m), of which $4m (£3.4m) will go to the victor.
