LIV is not an acronym; the LIV Golf League takes its name from the Roman numeral for 54 in recognition of one of the founding differences between the LIV tour and the PGA Tour. LIV tournaments feature three rounds of 18 holes, or 54 holes in all, while PGA Tour events are four-day, 72-hole affairs. For the 2026 season LIV adopted the 72-hole format but did not change its name to LXXII.
