LIV Golf has been declared officially defunct as a business and entity. This development prompts a retrospective look at Greg Norman's early 2022 statements during the league's inaugural press conference. At that time, Norman asserted that LIV Golf aimed to enhance the sport rather than disrupt established tours like the PGA Tour. He suggested that its presence could expand opportunities in golf. Now, with the league's closure, many view his comments as misguided and his legacy tarnished due to his role in LIV's formation and its subsequent failure. Norman's claims about collaboration with existing tours have been called into question following LIV's defeat in the competitive of professional golf.
