‘Call It Trump Golf’: LIV Golf Faces Severe Backlash After Huge Announcement Sparks Negative Reactions in the Golf Community

After an inaugural season that was received with mixed reactions, LIV Golf is ready for its second season. The lucrative Tour has finally announced the schedule for the 2023 season which will commence at the end of February. But with the majority of the events being competed in the United States, is the Saudi-funded Tour’s ‘grow the game’ mantra being followed?

LIV Golf is ready to provide the best golf competition in the world. Evidently enough, the 54-hole Tour suffered difficulties last year. Whether it was earning a TV deal or winning the hearts of the golf world, Greg Norman-led Tour had a lot to endure. But with the reveal of the new schedule, is the Tour living up to their expectations?

What does the new LIV Tour schedule look like?

Unlike the maiden season where there were only eight events, the upcoming season of the lucrative Tour will have 14 tournaments. The first event will take place in Mayakoba, Mexico on February 24th. However, the Mexican venue will be only one of six events outside of the United States.

Other foreign countries include Australia, England, Singapore, and Spain. They will hold the finale of the lucrative Tour in the home of the funding of the Tour, Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, the rest of the eight tournaments will be within the American border.

Moreover, events in Miami, Washington DC, and Bedminster will be competed at Donald Trump-owned golf courses, thanks to its long-term deal with the former POTUS. But with the majority of the enticing tournaments held in the United States, is LIV Golf’s mantra of ‘grow the game’ actually being followed?

Many LIV defectors along with their CEO Greg Norman have spoken out about joining the breakaway Tour for widening the golf audience beyond its already attained audience. They will mostly hold the 2023 season in the similar courses that the PGA Tour has been hosting for the past few decades. It will make not much of a difference to LIV Golf.

Nonetheless, since it’s only the second season, the lucrative Tour may still be trying to capitalize on the American audience before they pack their bags to compete overseas more frequently. As far as exciting golf is concerned, the Saudi-funded Tour will not fail in giving the fans the best entertainment. But what is the fans’ take on the new schedule?
