Major champions and LIV Golf captains Bubba Watson [main picture] and Sergio Garcia are set to front a star-studded field at the International Series Morocco presented by Visit Morocco next month.

They will be part of a strong 18-player LIV Golf contingent for the fourth edition of the event, which will return to the iconic Red Course at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam from 11–14 June.

It will be the third event of the season on The International Series – the upper echelon of tournaments on the Asian Tour that provide a pathway to the LIV Golf League.

Two-time Masters champion Watson played on the Asian Tour last week at the KOLON Korea Open, in preparation for this week’s LIV Golf Korea, while his most recent appearance on The International Series came at the 2024 Indonesian Masters.

“I’m looking forward to playing a golf course that really challenges you off the tee,” Watson said about his forthcoming trip to Morocco.

“From what I’ve heard, it’s a little narrower than what we’re typically used to in the US, so there’ll be a real emphasis on driving and positioning, which is something I enjoy.

Sergio Garcia.

“Peter Uihlein told me he loves the golf course and the resort, and obviously Ben Campbell has some great memories there after winning the event not too long ago. I’ve spoken to both of them and they had nothing but positive things to say about Morocco.

“My whole family will be there as well, so I think it’s going to be a really fun week.”

The popular American left-hander enjoyed a decorated PGA Tour career that included eight victories alongside two World Golf Championships titles, before taking on the role of captain of RangeGoats GC on LIV Golf. He won the Masters in 2012 and 2014.

Garcia is captain of Fireballs GC and like Watson will be making his debut at the Morocco event.

The 2017 Masters champion is one of the most recognisable players in the game.  The Spaniard has recorded 11 PGA Tour victories, including The Players Championship in 2008, alongside 16 DP World Tour titles during an illustrious career.

Since joining LIV Golf in 2022, he has led Fireballs GC to seven team victories while also capturing individual titles at LIV Golf Andalucía in 2023 and LIV Golf Hong Kong last year.

The 46-year-old has also made his mark on The International Series, highlighted by a tied-fourth finish in Macau last year.

Adding further firepower to the field from the LIV Golf League are Zimbabwe’s Scott Vincent, the defending champion, New Zealander Ben Campbell, the 2024 champion, South Africa’s Branden Grace, Mexican Abraham Ancer, Anthony Kim from the United States, Josele Ballester from Spain, Elvis Smylie from Australia and India’s Anirban Lahiri.

The International Series Morocco was first played in 2023, and has regularly been played on the Red Course at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam.
