The death rattle has not yet sounded for LIV Golf despite the blockbuster news this past Tuesday that the Saudi Public Investment Fund will be partnering with the PGA Tour and DP World Tour. Though…
Though the new partnership seems to clear the way for LIV defectors to return and for the Saudi-funded league to dissipate,that the league’s leadership has told team captains, including Dustin Johnson, that plans continue for both the rest of this season and 2024.
The next LIV tournament is scheduled for June 30 at Real Club Valderrama in Spain, with six more events to follow this season, including Aug. 11-13 at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J. LIV commissioner Greg Norman — who was not involved in meetings leading to the agreement — reportedly contradicted that in a meeting with the league’s staff on Wednesday.
Exactly what to make of that disconnect is anyone’s guess, and the decision-makers themselves might not know yet, either.
