LIV Golf is back this week, hosting its second event at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club just outside of Portland, Oregon.
Since the Saudi-backed league made its debut two weeks ago, the sport has shifted quite a bit.
The threat LIV Golf presented to the PGA Tour was greater than many thought, and in the days between the first event and this weekend's, several more big names from the PGA Tour have joined the new league, including the likes of Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau, and Patrick Reed.
Additionally, LIV Golf is filling out some of the edges of its roster with younger PGA Tour talents, such as Matthew Wolff, Talor Gooch, and Abraham Ancer. While they might not be the biggest names in golf just yet, they are all proven PGA Tour players that haven't yet reached their primes, and they will go a long way to make the field of LIV's second event stronger than its debut.
Still, even with the additions LIV made between London and Portland, the league has a pretty long way to go before it can offer the elite competition that is undoubtedly a part of its long-term plan.
Just 20 of the 48 players in this week's field are ranked in the Top 100 right now, including just two players — Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka — in the Top 20.
That said, with more players likely to consider the jump as the season goes on, LIV fields should only get stronger from here. Until then, here are 12 names you'll likely know heading into this week's LIV Golf event.
