Greg Norman has hinted golf fans can expect a larger, louder and even more boisterous Party Hole when LIV Golf Adelaide returns to the South Australian capital in the new year.
Like a boxer preparing for a title fight, LIV Golf identified weaknesses in the PGA Tour business model and planned how to exploit them. LIV Golf Adelaide was proof of its strategic brilliance.
Adelaide’s Grange Golf Club has refuted claims made in recent days about the state of its two golf courses and supposed member disatisfaction with the club’s hosting of the inaugural Australian LIV Golf tournament last month.
It’s not as if back-to-back LIV Golf winner Talor Gooch is hurting for money right now, but losing a heck of a lot to taxes (from a country you don’t live in) is never fun.
Australia has fallen. That should be the message echoing through the corridors of PGA Tour headquarters in Ponte Vedra Beach following this week’s hugely successful debut of LIV Golf Adelaide.
Talor Gooch avoided an almighty collapse, the 4Aces continued their team dominance and Chase Koepka stepped out of his brother’s shadow with a hole-in-one during a pulsating finish to LIV Golf Adelaide.
Greg Norman has doubled-down on his commitment to LIV Golf on the eve of its Australian debut, telling a packed media conference “we are not going anywhere. LIV is here for a long, long period of time”.
Feeding off home crowd support, local course knowledge and familiar turf conditions are reasons to believe the Cameron Smith-led Ripper GC can break through for a first team victory when LIV Golf makes it Australian debut in Adelaide on Friday.
With just eight days remaining before the inaugural LIV Golf event in Australia, two of our nation’s most prominent golfers talk about what lies ahead in Adelaide.
Dubbed The Watering Hole, the 12th at The Grange will host DJs, grandstands full thousands of (most likely inebriated) fans and of course plenty of cheers, jeers and chaos.
