The International Series India, set for January 30th to February 2nd at DLF Golf and Country Club, will feature 17 LIV Golf players including reigning US Open champion Bryson DeChambeau. This marks the first time a current men's Major champion will compete in a golf tournament in India.

DeChambeau will be joined by Crushers GC teammates Paul Casey and local favorite Anirban Lahiri. The event also welcomes LIV Golf's newest signings Frederik Kjettrup and Luis Masaveu, who recently joined Cleeks GC and Fireballs GC respectively.
