One of golf鈥檚 longest hitters off the tee, the 23-year-old Wolff has quickly established himself among the game鈥檚 top competitors. An All-American at Oklahoma State University and winner of the 2019 NCAA Division I individual championship, Wolff turned professional in 2019 and secured his first win less than one month later. He has continued to make an impact within golf鈥檚 elite, reaching a career-best number 12 in the world in October 2020 and earning seven top-10 finishes, including runner-up at the US Open and fourth at the PGA Championship.

World ranked number two amateur Eugenio Chacarra will make his first appearance as a professional with LIV Golf. The 22-year-old is a two-time All-American at Oklahoma State University, where he was a finalist for both the Ben Hogan Award and the Haskins Award as the NCAA鈥檚 top collegiate golfer. The number one amateur from Spain, Chacarra made 14 collegiate starts in 2021-22, winning three times with six additional top-six finishes.

Ortiz, winner of four professional tournaments worldwide, has been a standout since turning professional in 2014. He has spent 80 weeks of his career ranked in the top 100 and reached 44th in the world in February 2021. Born in Guadalajara, Mexico and a collegiate golfer at the University of North Texas, Ortiz represented his country at the 2021 Tokyo Summer Olympics.

鈥淥ur impressive roster of LIV golfers continues to grow with incredible young talent and international stars. Matthew Wolff and Eugenio Chacarra have both made a name for themselves as two of golf鈥檚 most promising talents, exhibiting impressive success at an early age. I鈥檓 eager to watch them play alongside Carlos Ortiz, one of Mexico鈥檚 most consistent pros who along with many of our other golfers represents LIV Golf鈥檚 continued commitment to growing the game on a global scale,鈥� said Greg Norman, CEO and commissioner of LIV Golf. 鈥淟IV Golf is providing new opportunities for the best players in the world to compete, and our field in Portland reflects that. We can鈥檛 wait to kick off our first US event with these incredible golfers.鈥�
