Every father dreams of his son representing the same team as his! LIV Golfer Ian Poulter is no different! Nicknamed ‘The Postman’ by his Ryder Cup teammates for always delivering undefeated records, he holds a record of 15-8-2 in the same. After winning 17 tournaments on several tours, he started playing for the LIV Golf in 2022.
Before joining LIV Golf, he won two World Golf Championships, one at the 2010 WGC Accenture Match Play Championship, and the other at the 2012 WGC-HSBC Champions. Given his accolades, there is no doubt that the 48-year-old Ryder Cup legend would want his legacy to carry on. And it might be so already. Luke Poulter, his eldest son, was named the SEC Freshman of the Week in October 2023. He has also been a staunch rival of the legend Tiger Woods’ son Charlie Woods. Nevertheless, the gushing father reiterated his desire to see his son play for his team.

Well, the answer is a big yes! The Saudi-Arabia League had its promotions event last year from December 8 to December 10. Hosted at the Abu Dhabi Golf Club with 72 holes played over three days, Major championship winners, Ryder Cup participants, and top amateurs are among those whom LIV has invited to play at the event. The event had a purse of $1.5 million and the players were to earn a membership to the breakaway league.
