LIV Golf Confuses Doubts Again With No Signs of Dissolution | Livedoor News LIV Golf Series

aIt’s been almost 13 months since it was confirmed that the winds of change were blowing in golf. In sleepy green Hertfordshire, Liv Golf Tee Off Against the backdrop of intense astringency and serious suspicion. “Golf, but louder” was chosen as the advertising slogan.

It was golf, but I was more nervous. Players looked over their shoulders, nosy intruders even worried about being spotted in the rebel environment. Concerns about the sports-wash element attached to the LIV plan and the belief that the PGA and DP World Tour organizations could not be completely reformed led to the ridicule of the tournament at the Centurion Club.

this week, LIV has taken over Valderrama, a famous Spanish venue that is intrinsically associated with European matches. British Open winner Cameron Smith. So does US PGA champion Brooks Koepka. Names like Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson, Graham McDowell, Ian Poulter, Lee Westwood, Henrik Stenson, Sergio Garcia, Patrick Reed and Bryson DeChambeau are at least those who aren’t into the sport. will be registered in

The same players will land again this week at Centurion, which is expected to draw 10,000 spectators per day. Justin Rose has credit for attending the British Masters, but Bellfry’s lack of an overall cast list is surprising. Rocket on the PGA Tour in Detroit His Mortgage His Classic leaderboard is only a little more glamorous.

Saudi Arabia’s public investment fund wealth naturally helps, but the LIV is already confusing skeptics. Businesses with abundant resources can fail. An elite golf element with momentum. Yasir Al Rumayyan and the PIF, which he oversees, have no plans to downsize, despite the recent announcement. Affiliation with PGA and DP World Tour. Perhaps those organizations have more to fear than anyone expected.

“Look at this,” ex-European Ryder Cup player Paul Casey said, pointing to hundreds of sign hunters in front of Valderrama’s clubhouse. “The sharpness is gone. The uncertainty is gone.

“I shouldn’t speak on behalf of others, but Yasir needs to let them know that they are going to be in the long run. I think it’s not a matter of next year, it’s a while away. 10 or 20 years. Let’s wait and see what happens after that.”

Casey is no idiot. His bullishness is not alone. He is correct in highlighting the mood swings that are evident even after spending a few minutes on the driving range. LIV players now feel more comfortable. “I’m proud of my decision,” said two-time major champion Martin Kaymer. “We got a lot of information from the media and people who didn’t know much about it. We got a lot of crap from them.

“I believe my instincts and beliefs were correct in what Yasir and his team initially said. They were very transparent and most of it came true. I am glad that

“Not much has changed.

Ten of the LIV’s twelve teams (three each plus one reserve team) are partly owned by the players themselves. Long-term plans include selling sponsorships across these franchises to justify the business model. Adoption is so slow that it no longer exists, but there is a reason behind it. PIF has made it clear to the team that offers with a mere 6-figure value are unacceptable. Insiders also claim interest from potential backers has increased significantly after the framework agreements with the PGA and DP World Tour were confirmed. Regular LIV?

His contract with Valderrama has been extended for five years. We are confident that external suppliers with similar contracts have nothing to fear. Kaymer revealed that six professionals have reached out to him seeking LIV qualification in 2024, when the number of teams is likely to increase.

“It’s fun to be here,” says the German. “It’s a different way to play. People who have seen this situation for the first time in 12 months are wondering if there is a place for them, especially for Europeans who don’t want to be based in America. It wasn’t a surprise to me.” Kaymer is cool, thoughtful, and unlikely to be a revolutionary. Nor is he bluffing.

None of this paints LIV as an undisputed success. Players were generally appeased with exorbitant sums rather than an altruistic mission to help the game. Koepka realized in April that one private jet wasn’t enough to carry him and his team between Adelaide and Singapore, so he simply ordered another. In his 54-hole LIV event, he can hit 95 three times and still take home $120,000. The team’s reserve team raises him $40,000 just for joining.Nevertheless, we must accept that Koepka wins PGA Championship Undermined LIV’s disdain for competitiveness.

When asked if his actions were justified, he said, “I made the decision.” “I had the feeling that it would be okay anyway. If I never played again, there were more important things. This is not what my life is all about.”

“LIV has obviously grown. Like anything, learn from the first few and build from that. We’re definitely getting there, but the end product in the first year of anything , it won’t be what you want.”

With Performance 54, once a standard golf marketing agency, now running key elements of LIV, questions have been raised about how robust the management structure is. The brainy Atul Khosla abruptly stepped down as LIV’s chief operating officer in December, and no successor has yet been appointed. The agreement reached between the PIF and the PGA Tour was essentially an acceptance that litigation in the United States would be mutually detrimental. This is nothing like a sports fairy tale.

No active anti-doping program for LIV exists yet. The team element that LIV pushes so hard feels as though it doesn’t yet have a broad resonance. Late last year, amid concerns about overspending and an internal blame game, there was a justifiable fear that LIV would cease to exist. Khosla and other executives left the scene. Rumayan intervened, insisting that the show continue.

It is worth noting that in this environment the debate about human rights is much less widespread than it used to be. “If I had been more observant of where my salary came from, I would hardly have taken a shot in professional golf,” says one player.

This point is not unreasonable. DP World His tour happily steered players in the direction of Saudi Arabia when he oversaw a tournament there. Jay Monahan, CEO of the PGA Tour, said: used moral opposition as an example For retaining the player months before announcing the deal with Lemayang. Golf is still often the domain of white men, but it has a strange relationship with ethics.

Greg Norman, the LIV’s polarized Commissioner, lurks behind the scenes. The official explanation for his lack of media duties is that the focus should be on the players. Monaghan doesn’t usually stand in front of journalists. That his rationale doesn’t quite apply. It’s a new business looking for traction, and in Australia it’s like golf’s top player. Maybe LIV just doesn’t want Norman to catch fire.

The remaining workforce is about 150, significantly younger, more diverse, and includes people with other golfing experiences. It might be an exaggeration to say this is a completely transparent business, but the staff are always helpful. Like players, they are not immune to previous negative attitudes in public.

“This is the destination,” Casey says. “People agreed with it. The event I attended was great.” But what about the harsh criticism? “I didn’t have time to worry about it. Isn’t that the rule of life? Don’t take anything personally. I spent my time taking care of my family and maximizing my skills.” I try to perform and I try to make sure people have a good time at events, and that’s where all my energy went.”

In early June, the architect of a multiparty merger, Jimmy Dunn, gave the PGA Tour firm control over the future of the sport. “If Monaghan wants to disband LIV, he can do so,” Dunn said. The message has not reached Valderrama.
