Edit request[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Add the following information to this sentence “The dates of establishment of the other key tours include: LPGA Tour (1950); Japan Golf Tour (1973); Asian Tour (1995).”:

“and the LIV Golf Invitational Series (2022).”

Not done: Probably too soon to describe a fledgling organisation as LIV a "key tour", and source doesn't support that claim. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 15:22, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Wjemather,

Thank you for your feedback, and totally understand that LIV Golf is a newer organization, but LIV Golf can be considered an established organization. As per the sources included below, LIV Golf has successfully held events, has a roster of major names in golf, including Sergio Garcia, Louis Oosthuizen, Martin Kaymer, Charl Schwartzel and Graeme McDowell. It also has a substantial purse of $25 million per event, on top of prize money for team competition.

If you have any suggestions as to where this may fit better within the article, I’m happy to have that discussion as well.
