LIV Golf, the global golf league energizing the sport through team competition and innovative fan experiences, today confirmed it will return to Michigan with a new title partner for the 2026 season finale. The Aramco LIV Golf Michigan Team Championship 2026 will take place August 27-30 at The Cardinal at Saint John's Resort in Plymouth, Mich., site of this past season's team championship that witnessed packed crowds, headline entertainment and a thrilling playoff finish.

With this announcement, Aramco becomes the League's second title partner. Fans can now secure priority access to Premium Hospitality tickets before they go on sale to the public by placing a deposit at LIVGolf.com to enjoy a festival of world-class golf, live music, and family-friendly experiences.

In August, The Cardinal at Saint John's Resort hosted the League's debut in Michigan where Legion XIII, led by Team Captain and 2025 LIV Golf Individual Champion Jon Rahm, emerged victorious over Bryson DeChambeau's Crushers GC. Legion XIII secured the title with standout performances from Rahm, Caleb Surratt, Tom McKibbin and Tyrrell Hatton, who delivered clutch back-to-back birdies in a dramatic two-hole team playoff to clinch the victory. The event included electric concerts by Imagine Dragons and Swedish House Mafia following golf on Saturday and Sunday, two Fan Villages, and family-friendly activations throughout the course.

"Team competition is at the core of our League, and our annual Team Championship is one of our biggest events of the year. From the course layout for team match play to the fan experiences to world-class concerts, Saint John's Resort, Wayne County, and the state of Michigan were fantastic hosts for LIV Golf this past season, and we can't wait to return next August," said Ross Hallett, LIV Golf Executive Vice President, Head of Events. "We're looking forward to working with the Pulte Family Charitable Foundation and the incredible team at Saint John's Resort to build on the momentum from a successful 2025 finale as we set our sights on an exciting 2026 season ahead."

Crafted by renowned architect Raymond Hearn, The Cardinal opened in June 2024 and consists of 200 acres of undulating terrain and Golden Age green contours that present a distinct challenge and risk/reward opportunities for many of the world's best players. Owned by the Pulte Family Charitable Foundation and part of the Humanitarian Hotels initiative, 100% of the net profits from the property are used to support global charitable efforts that represent The Foundation's mission of serving people in need.

"Welcoming LIV Golf to The Cardinal at Saint John's Resort in 2025 was a unique opportunity to showcase what Saint John's is capable of, while also advancing our Foundation's mission, and the week exceeded every expectation. The League's innovative approach is truly reshaping the game of golf both on and off the course, and we're honored that our property has been selected to host the 2026 Team Championship," said Kevin Doyle, Chief Operating Officer of The Pulte Family Charitable Foundation. "The feedback we received this past year from local residents and fans across the country was unbelievable - they were blown away by the atmosphere and the fun they had here, and we are looking forward to making an already world-class event even bigger and better in 2026."

In 2025, LIV Golf debuted a new format for the Team Championship that featured the League's first-ever play-in match, which saw Majesticks GC defeat Iron Heads GC to move into the 12-team playoff bracket. All teams then competed across the final three days of competition, ensuring fans had the opportunity to watch their favorite players including DeChambeau (Crushers GC), Phil Mickelson (HyFlyers GC), Cam Smith (Ripper GC), Dustin Johnson (4Aces GC), Bubba Watson (RangeGoats GC), and many more compete throughout the tournament.

The Aramco LIV Golf Michigan Team Championship joins a growing list of announced events on the League's global 14-event 2026 schedule, including Riyadh (February 4-7), Adelaide (February 12-15), Hong Kong (March 5-8) Singapore (March 12-15), South Africa (March 19-22), Mexico City (April 16-19), Virginia (May 7-10), Andalucía (June 4-7), Louisiana (June 25-28), United Kingdom (July 23-26), and Indianapolis (August 20-23).

About: Brian Weis


Brian Weis Brian Weis is the mastermind behind GolfTrips.com, a vast network of golf travel and directory sites covering everything from the rolling fairways of Wisconsin to the sunbaked desert layouts of Arizona. If there’s a golf destination worth visiting, chances are, Brian has written about it, played it, or at the very least, found a way to justify a "business trip" there.

As a card-carrying member of the Golf Writers Association of America (GWAA), International Network of Golf (ING), Golf Travel Writers of America (GTWA), International Golf Travel Writers Association (IGTWA), and The Society of Hickory Golfers (SoHG), Brian has the credentials to prove that talking about golf is his full-time job. In 2016, his peers even handed him The Shaheen Cup, a prestigious award in golf travel writing—essentially the Masters green jacket for guys who don’t hit the range but still know where the best 19th holes are.

Brian’s love for golf goes way back. As a kid, he competed in junior and high school golf, only to realize that his dreams of a college golf scholarship had about the same odds as a 30-handicap making a hole-in-one. Instead, he took the more practical route—working on the West Bend Country Club grounds crew to fund his University of Wisconsin education. Little did he know that mowing greens and fixing divots would one day lead to a career writing about the best courses on the planet.

In 2004, Brian turned his golf passion into a business, launching GolfWisconsin.com. Three years later, he expanded his vision, and GolfTrips.com was born—a one-stop shop for golf travel junkies looking for their next tee time. Today, his empire spans all 50 states, and 20+ international destinations.

On the course, Brian is a weekend warrior who oscillates between a 5 and 9 handicap, depending on how much he's been traveling (or how generous he’s feeling with his scorecard). His signature move" A high, soft fade that his playing partners affectionately (or not-so-affectionately) call "The Weis Slice." But when he catches one clean, his 300+ yard drives remind everyone that while he may write about golf for a living, he can still send a ball into the next zip code with the best of them.

Whether he’s hunting down the best public courses, digging up hidden gems, or simply outdriving his buddies, Brian Weis is living proof that golf is more than a game—it’s a way of life.
