Where is LIV Golf Korea 2025 being played? Venue explored

LIV Golf's next stop is Korea after the conclusion of the LIV Golf Mexico City, where Joaquin Niemann won the tournament with 16-under. The LIV Golf Korea will take place from May 2 to 4 at the Jack Nicklaus Golf Club, South Korea.

The course, opened in 2010, was designed by Jack Nicklaus. The 2015 Presidents Cup and the International Crown, an LPGA Tour team event, have previously been played at the course.

Golf Digest named it the fourth best course in the country and wrote a few words about it. It penned down (via LIV Golf):

"This is an impressive Nicklaus design, one that transformed a flat, dull site into a surprisingly rolling, pine-dotted layout with water on 11 holes, equitably distributed with six hazards to the left and five to the right."
