Saudi-backed LIV Golf’s feud with the PGA Tour swiped the spotlight as practice began Monday for the 87th Masters with infamous Augusta National failure Greg Norman igniting the competitive fires.
However, all players from the rebel tour competing at Augusta collectively made a crucial decision about their uniform which shows they still hold the famous tournament in the highest regard.Norman, LIV Golf’s chief executive officer, said he had “goosebumps” thinking one of 18 LIV players who qualified for the Masters would win the green jacket and be greeted by 17 colleagues at Sunday’s final hole.
“If one of our guys wins, no matter who it is, they are all going to be there on the 18th green and that just gives me goosebumps to think about,” Norman told NewsCorp in a weekend interview.
“To have those 17 other guys there, that’s the spirit we want. That’s what these guys talk about. They’re saying no matter who wins, no matter who is in that position, we’re going to be there.”
