Greg Norman confirms multiple PGA Tour stars "very keen" to join LIV Golf
LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman reveals his "phone is blowing up" after signing Jon Rahm last week.
Greg Norman claims his "phone is blowing up" with players wanting to join LIV Golf following the signing of Jon Rahm.
LIV Golf CEO Norman is adamant there will be a "domino effect" of other PGA Tour stars joining the breakaway Saudi-backed league.
Rahm is understood to have accepted a fee in the region of £450m to join LIV Golf.
The Spaniard will captain his own team and play a key role in the direction of the league.
Norman told BBC World Business Report:
Rahm had consistently pushed back on past rumours linking him with a move away from the PGA Tour to LIV Golf.
Norman was therefore pressed further by the BBC on Rahm's shock U-turn ahead of 2024.
The Australian explained the fresh LIV Golf franchise and team model played a big part in Rahm's decision.
Norman said:
Norman this week rejected claims he will leave LIV Golf in the future despite previous reports suggesting his days were numbered.
Rahm's move to LIV Golf comes just weeks before the PGA Tour and the PIF's proposed merger on December 31.
