The sport of golf will now have its own trade deadline.

LIV Golf announced Wednesday teams will have the option to trade golfers from now until June 9. The series is also introducing the option for golfers on expiring contracts to sign extensions with their current team.

"As LIV Golf grows, the League will continue to establish opportunities to strengthen the competition. By opening a trade window midway through the season, all 13 teams have an opportunity to fine-tune their rosters and assess their team's composition and performance," LIV CEO Greg Norman said.

"LIV Golf is delivering another exciting opportunity for professional golf that aligns with the traditions of many team sports around the globe, promoting strategic player moves and enriched team storylines."

This is a natural next step for the team-based concept LIV Golf introduced upon its inception.

Captains previously had the chance to augment their squads during the offseason, with the first major swaps unfolding this winter. Now, underachieving teams can make improvements midway through the campaign in an effort to turn things around.

Crushers GC, captained by Bryson DeChambeau, sits first in LIV's team standings with 105.5 points through seven events. Jon Rahm-led Legion XIII is in second with 94 points.
