PGA Championship 2025: 8 LIV Golf stars who made the cut at the PGA Championship 2025 feat. Jon Rahm

16 LIV Golfers competed at the PGA Championship 2025, but only eight made it to the final two rounds. On Friday, May 16, half of the contingent failed to finish above the cutline.

The conditions at Quail Hollow were tough, and the cutline reflected that. Following two rounds, the cutline at the PGA Championship 2025 was set at 1-over. Notable names like Ludvig Aberg and Sepp Straka missed the weekend. LIV Golf bigwigs like Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson also faced an early exit.

In this article, we take a look at the LIV Golf stars who made the cut at the PGA Championship 2025.
