The Saudi Golf League begins in June, and, as well as who will compete, attention is turning to the venues selected for its debut season.

The series had been rumoured for months and caused a huge amount of controversy - not least in the timing of the first event, which takes place the week before the US Open. The eight-tournament series runs from 9 June to 30 October and will comprise seven regular season events and a Team Championship grand finale Match Play. 

The USA hosts four of the regular tournaments and the season finale, with the other three regular events shared between venues in England, Thailand and Saudi Arabia. The competition, which features a maximum 48 players competing over three days and 54 holes per event, gets under way on 9 June at the Centurion Club in London. 

Other venues include New Jersey's Trump National Golf Club Bedminster and Stonehill Golf Club in Bangkok. The last of the regular events will be played between 14 October and 16 October in Saudi Arabian capital Jeddah at Royal Greens Golf Club, which also hosts the Saudi International

The series concludes with the Team Championship between 27 October and 30 October, at the second Donald Trump-owned course to host one of the events, Trump National Doral in Miami. The finale is reported to be a 'seeded four-day, four-round, match play knock-out' where 12 teams will compete for a $50m purse.
