Could a LIV event be headed to Chambers Bay for ‘25 season?

According to a report from the Tacoma News Tribune, LIV Golf is in talks with Chambers Bay as a potential host for the 2025 LIV Golf season.

Chambers Bay has a rich golf history. The course hosted the 2010 U.S. Amateur, the 2015 U.S. Open and the 2021 U.S. Women’s Amateur.

While speaking with The News Tribune, Don Anderson, executive counsel to Pierce County Executive Bruce Dammeier, LIV is “very attractive” for the course.

“LIV has its own issues though, golf politics, world politics-wise. You have to be careful there. They throw a great party, though. 54 golfers, 54 holes, shotgun start. You generate $5 million or so in concession and merchandise sales. From that aspect, they’re very attractive. If they follow up with their indirect inquiry, we’ll listen”.

Chambers Bay has likely been holding out to see if they’d be green lit for another major championship first, which is yet to happen. The USGA has U.S. Open’s booked for the next 18 years, with Chambers not on the schedule.

They’d also be open to hosting a PGA Tour event, but finding sponsors is difficult. Time will tell if Chambers Bay will be the next big course for LIV Golf.
