5 storylines to follow as LIV Golf transfer window officially opens ft. Anthony Kim’s possible replacement

The LIV Golf transfer window is officially open, and fans have their eyes on what changes could unfold in the upcoming season. The 2025 season wrapped up with its finale in August, and there are still a few months to go before the new season begins.

After the 2025 season, players who finished in the top 24 in the season standings secured their spot in the lock zone, while those finishing from 25 to 48 are in the open zone. The remaining players fall into the drop zone.

Teams can re-sign players from the open zone, but drop zone players cannot be signed for the next year. However, they still have opportunities to make their way back to the series through the International Series rankings or LIV Golf Promotions events.

Below are the five stories to follow in the LIV Golf transfer window:
