LIV Golf: How to watch on TV, schedule details and the players involved

South African Charl Schwartzel and compatriot Hennie du Plessis lead the chase for the record $4 million winners' cheque after round two of the opening LIV Invitational event on Friday.

Schwartzel, who led after Thursday's opening round, produced another dazzling round to stay top of the leaderboard by three strokes from Du Plessis.

Phil Mickelson, playing his first tournament since February after a taking time away from the game in the wake of comments he made about the LIV Series, struggled with his putter in a round of five-over 75 to leave him on four over for the tournament.

DeChambeau and Reed were not playing in the opening event but Mickelson, Dustin Johnson and Sergio Garcia were the star names in the inaugural field, with other notable participants including Englishmen Lee Westwood, Ian Poulter and Richard Bland, Germany's Martin Kaymer and South Africans Louis Oosthuizen and Branden Grace, and Rickie Fowler.

The complete field for the opening event is here:

The breakaway circuit begins at the Centurion Club in Hertfordshire, before moving to the United States for three stops. 

It then has two events in Bangkok and Saudi Arabia, before the tour finishes at Trump Doral in Miami at the end of October.

The 48-man field will play across 12 teams of four players, which was determined at a draft on June 7.

The first seven regular season events will consist of three 54-hole events, with no cut and shotgun starts, while the final event will be a four-day team matchplay knockout. 

LIV then plans 10 events in 2023 followed by "a full season" of 14 tournaments in 2024 and 2025. 

Centurion, like the other seven events in 2022, is being classed by chief executive Greg Norman as "baiter tournaments", aiming to lure big names
