London and West Palm Beach(July 2, 2022) – LIV Golf today announced that world ranked No. 26 Paul Casey has officially signed and will compete at the LIV Golf Invitational Bedminster as part of team Crushers GC, captained by Bryson DeChambeau. LIV Golf’s third event of the season takes place July 29-31 at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster.

A consistent competitor for more than two decades, Casey has won 21 tournaments since turning pro in 2000. In that time, he’s amassed 150 top-10 finishes, including a tie for second at the 2020 PGA Championship and a tie for third at the 139th Open Championship.
