A group of young golfers from the ROSHN Rising Stars program
embarked on their first international training experience during the LIV Golf
tournament in the United Kingdom. Launched by ROSHN Group in partnership with
LIV Golf, the program is designed to identify and nurture a new generation of
Saudi golfers, empowering them to compete at a professional level.
The ROSHN Rising Stars program comprises 20 children aged 8 – 15, many of
whom traveled to the United Kingdom to join training and mentoring sessions
with golfing professionals and LIV Golf stars. They learned about the game with
a tour of the JCB Golf & Country Club, where LIV Golf UK was played this
year, and joined the public at the ROSHN Group Fan Zone.
ROSHN Rising Stars was launched by ROSHN Group in collaboration with LIV
Golf following the announcement of the Group as a Pillar Partner of LIV Golf
earlier this month. Rising Stars is part of a wider collaboration between ROSHN
Group’s YUHYEEK CSR program and Potential, Unleashed, LIV Golf’s
official community arm, to champion youth access to golf and promote golf and
education talent development.
Over the coming six months, the 20 children in the program will be trained
through Saudi-based coaching sessions and mentorship provided by LIV Golf
players at international events. After attending LIV Golf UK, the Rising Stars
children will join LIV Golf at the 2025 finals in Michigan, USA, while
preparing for their own participation in professional-amateur events in the
2026 season.
LIV Golf fans at the UK event, which took place between the 25th
and 27th July, also experienced ROSHN Group’s booth at the Fan Zone,
featuring immersive on-site activities such as mini golf and golfing
simulators.
