LIV Golf is now advocating for a new independent system rather than pursuing points in the Official World Ranking.
The breakaway league led by Greg Norman has been trying to get acknowledged by OWGR under an official point system.
It’s not been simple for Greg Norman and LIV Golf to adjust.
For Greg Norman and LIV Golf, change hasn’t been simple.
But because the OWGR was unable to properly legitimize a league with players like Bryson DeChambeau, Brooks Koepka, Phil Mickelson, and Jon Rahm, LIV has reportedly made the decision to move on.
According to The Times, LIV moreover “wants the majors to grant LIV a quota so that players are not excluded from the biggest stages.”
In July 2022, LIV submitted an accreditation application to OWGR.
After the proposal was ultimately turned down, LIV claims it is pressing on in the hopes that a more comprehensive scoring system would be developed.
According to The Times, Norman wrote to LIV players, “The OWGR is not and cannot be a ‘official’ ranking, having refused to recognise your performances over the last few seasons.”
This ruling will clear up any doubts regarding its applicability. Golf is evolving as a game. It is growing and evolving.
“LIV Golf thinks it’s time for the player rating system to catch up, and we think the League, Tours, players, fans, and stakeholders would all benefit most from an entirely autonomous ranking system.”
Right now, Rahm, Rory McIlroy, and Scottie Scheffler are at the top of the OWGR rankings.
The major effect of LIV’s lack of alignment with the OWGR points system will be seen by lesser-known players, who may drop in the rankings.
Tiger Woods and Norman were having a better time when LIV interrupted their PGA celebration.
Before LIV interrupted the PGA party, Tiger Woods and Norman had happier times.
A new teaser for Full Swing season 2 has been released by Netflix, and it features a behind-the-scenes confrontation between Rory McIlroy and the LIV Golf controversy.
According to Sports Illustrated, OWGR informed LIV that there was a problem with the player routes circuit in LIV as well.
OWGR chairman Peter Dawson earlier told the Associated Press, “We are not at war with them.” “It is not a political choice to deny them eligibility. It’s all really technical.
It is obvious that LIV players are skilled enough to be ranked. Simply said, they aren’t competing in a way that allows them to be ranked fairly among the thousands of players who compete on the other 24 tours.
This week, the Arnold Palmer Invitational on the PGA Tour will take place in Orlando, Florida.
This week, LIV is also traveling to Hong Kong for its next competition.
