Bubba Watson doubled down on Phil Mickelson's statement that LIV Golf is going to sign more marquee players before its third season in 2024.

"There's open spots. There's interest," Watson said Wednesday ahead of this week's Team Championship at Trump National Doral. "There's people calling, texting, even me, and I don't have any pull. So they are asking for help to try to get in the league."

Watson's comments came a day after Mickelson said that LIV's player roster is "going to improve next year."

The Team Championship is the final of 14 events in the Saudi-backed league's second season.
