Bubba Watson was relegated from the LIV Golf League in September, and the two-time Masters winner currently faces an uncertain future.

A LIV Golf U-turn on the eve of the Individual Championship in Dallas saw the lefty’s situation change dramatically. Watson, as captain of the RangeGoats, was seemingly exempt from relegation before an announcement emerged confirming some of the league’s most prominent names would be at risk.

Since his relegation, Watson has played on the Asian Tour in order to regain his LIV status. The 46-year-old is also set to compete in the LIV Golf Promotions event at Riyadh Golf Club in Saudi Arabia in December.

Just days after Watson attempts to save his LIV Golf status, the American will head to Las Vegas for the eagerly anticipated LIV Golf vs PGA Tour ‘Showdown’ as Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler take on Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau at Shadow Creek Golf Course.

According to a report from the Sports Business Journal, Watson is set to join LIV Golf commentator David Feherty on the broadcast team.

Trevor Immelman, Charles Barkley and Ernie Johnson are three more names that are set to comment on the eagerly anticipated match.

TNT will broadcast the action from Las Vegas. This is the first time LIV Golf and PGA Tour players have competed in an individual match since the breakaway league’s inception in 2022.

Bubba Watson LIV Golf fate to be decided

Watson’s LIV Golf fate is set to be decided before he undertakes his broadcasting duties next month.

LIV Golf Promotions will offer one player a chance to earn a lucrative spot in the 2025 league. The three-round event sees the top 20 players from the first 18 advance to round two.

Scores are then reset, and automatic qualifiers join for round two. The top 20 from the opening 36 holes advance to the final round. Scores are once again reset, and the winner after the fourth round will then receive a spot in the 2025 LIV Golf League.

If Watson doesn’t triumph at the Promotions event, there’s a slim chance the two-time Masters champion will be reinstated on business grounds.
