LIV Golf's chief executive says he's rewarding the South Australian government for taking an initial risk by knocking back other interest.
The LIV CEO said there was interest from other states to host the breakaway league, but it rewarded South Australia for taking a chance. Greg Norman has rejected lucrative offers from other states to declare Adelaide as the sole LIV Golf host in Australia for the foreseeable future.
"Has there been interest from other states? Yes, absolutely there has been," Norman told reporters in Adelaide on Wednesday"The premier took on the responsibility of taking on LIV right from the outset, not too sure about the result. LIV Golf's Adelaide second edition starts on Friday at The Grange, with crowd capacity increased by 50 per cent to about 120,000 over the three rounds.
"LIV never put an offer to him, this is just typical white noise that gets out there in the industry," Norman said. Norman said he had no insight into negotiations between LIV and the US PGA Tour who, some 10 months ago, announced a "framework agreement'' for unity."There's a lot of unknowns, I think, on everybody's side," Rahm told reporters.
