Saudi Arabia Super Golf League schedule: when 2022 series begins at Centurion Club, all venues and prize money

The Saudi Super Golf League is set to shake the sporting world as they launch their breakaway circuit - the richest tournament ever held - later this year.

The competition, which will be held at the Centurion Club near St Albans, looked dead in the water following controversial comments by Phil Mickelson, who faced fierce backlash after he admitted to supporting the concept.

The PGA Tour had since threatened players with lifetime bans if they signed up to the new super league, however Greg Norman - the Australian leading the Saudi’s bid - is set to make an announcement later today as they press on regardless of criticism.

The Saudi Arabia Super Golf League will consist of eight events, with the first taking place at the Centurion Club near St Albans.

Schedule & venues

The inaugural event will kick off at the Centurion Golf Club on June 9 till June 11 2022.

Here is the rest of this year’s schedule...
