LIV Golf has announced that Rachel Drummond, a former Sky Sports reporter, will replace Troy Mullins for the 2024 season.

Days before the third season of LIV, Mullins, a former long drive competitor, made the choice to step down from her role as on-course reporter and commentator.

Dom Boulet and Su-Ann Heng have also agreed to extend their contracts with LIV.

It has also been reported the broadcast team will have a new member of the team: Christian Cosby.

Cosby is said to be the new host of LIV’s ‘Club 54’ show which airs before and after tournament rounds.

“I’m not sure how often we do that”

LIV have also confirmed to SBJ their broadcasts on American network, the CW, will be rated through iSpot and Nielsen.

He stated that they do not view their numbers as a weekly story; therefore, he is uncertain about the frequency of their analysis.
