Amid All the Rising Turmoil Due to $3,000,000,000 Betrayal, Does Jay Monahan’s Comeback Mean GoodBye For Greg Norman

The announcement of the $3 billion merger brought much speculation with it in the golf world. While some celebrated the news, others saw it as the ultimate betrayal. But one thing was certain: everyone believed that this would put an end to the rivalry and give both leagues more stability. However, peace, can be difficult to achieve. Fortunately for those who love the PGA Tour-LIV golf drama, the merger hasn’t brought an end to all the animosity but has brought the wildest theories regarding the top position.

The PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan, however, is the center of attention following the announcement. Greg Norman, the current CEO of LIV Golf, was unaware of the deal. And now Monahan’s comeback could put Greg Norman’s position in jeopardy.

A tough spot for LIV golf CEO, Greg Norman

Greg Norman’s name has been intimately associated with LIV Golf since its inception. Many thought that he was also behind the mega-merger. But to everyone’s surprise, he was unaware and the announcement came to him as a surprise like the rest of the world! It was Monahan who announced the merger, and was appointed CEO of the new entity.

Soon after announcing the merger, Monahan went into hiatus for an indefinite period due to some undisclosed medical issues. Many assumed that this was the end of his autocracy. However, in light of the recent events, Monahan is now prepared to resume his duties as the Tour’s commissioner.

This could be a threat to Norman’s position in LIV Golf. Even though Norman’s role in the new organization is still uncertain, he hasn’t appeared as much in LIV’s second season. On the other hand, Monahan is winning trust and solidifying his position as the leader of the Tour. Many believe that Monahan will eventually dethrone Norman in LIV Golf if things continue this way. However, all of this is just conjecture, and only time will determine Norman’s role within the new organization and LIV Golf.

Norman gives his take on LIV Golf’s future

With reports that Monahan will lead the newly merged organization as CEO, Norman’s contributions may diminish as a result of the new deal. The two-time major champion’s future and the future of his league are both shrouded in doubt. While many are predicting that the PGA Tour will continue to rule the new entity in the future, Norman has made his case for LIV Golf’s future.

‘The Shark’ cleared the air and said that LIV Golf will continue to be a standalone enterprise. Not only that, but LIV Golf’s business model will also remain unchanged. “Our business model will not change. We changed history, and we’re not going anywhere,” said Norman, as per Golf Digest.

Norman also stated that planning was already beginning for the year 2025, and that there would be no changes to the way things are done now.
