Cam Smith criticizes PGA Tour for lack of Australian golf events

Cam Smith cited the PGA Tour’s decision to exclude Australia from its tournament schedule as a primary frustration following his 2022 departure to LIV Golf. While acknowledging the quality of the organization, Smith argued that the tour failed to capitalize on the popularity of players such as Adam Scott, Jason Day, and Marc Leishman by not hosting events in the region. Since joining LIV Golf four years ago, Smith has secured three victories, though his form in major championships has declined with eight missed cuts in his last nine appearances. Despite the professional transition and rumors regarding the future of the league, Smith remains committed to his current tour and declined the opportunity to rejoin the PGA Tour via the Returning Member Program earlier this year.
