Was Greg Norman's LIV Golf Exit a Mistake?

This latest surprising shake-up has fans wondering: did LIV Golf cut ties with the very man who made it possible? In this episode of The Golf Podcast, we dive into one of the most surprising shake-ups in professional golf: Greg Norman has officially cut ties with LIV Golf. While Norman stepped down as CEO earlier this year, many assumed he would always hold some role as the league’s figurehead. Instead, he’s now completely out—raising big questions about what this means for LIV’s future. We break down Norman’s farewell statement, player reactions, and why some insiders believe his contentious style may have become more of a roadblock than an asset. Was Norman the ultimate disruptor who got LIV off the ground, only to stand in the way of its next phase? Or did the league do him a disservice after he put his reputation on the line to launch it? We explore whether this move clears the path for potential partnerships, renewed conversations with governing bodies, and even the possibility of softening tensions with the PGA Tour. Plus, we discuss what Norman’s absence could mean for player recruiting, fan perception, and the league’s long-term stability. Don’t miss this deep dive into the shake-up that could redefine LIV Golf’s future.   Listen to This Week's Show Download on iTunes here Listen on Spotify here Thanks to this Week's Sponsors Titleist is committed to ensuring that every golf ball delivers superior quality and consistency.  From ball to ball, dozen to dozen we should expect our golf ball to perform exactly the same way, shot after shot.
