Sergio Garcia explains why he sees the LIV Golf format as ‘the future of golf’

NORTH PLAINS, Ore.  — Players who are competing in the LIV Golf Invitational Series have provided a myriad of answers for their reasons to join the upstart league.

One answer Wednesday during a news conference ahead of the series’ second event at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club stood out from Sergio Garcia, an 11-time PGA Tour and 16-time DP World Tour winner who provided several reasons for his decision.

“I did it because I think this is the future of golf, because I think that this is a great opportunity, not only to do what I love, which is playing golf, but at the same time be able to spend more time with my family and watch them grow,” said Garcia. “I have a four-year-old and a two-year-old so it’s nice to watch them grow as much as possible. I’ve been doing this for 24 years, so traveling a lot and stuff, and make a great living out of it.”
