The whole golf fraternity has been left shocked by this announcement. A Twitter user named Jack MacKenzie commented, “Looks like someone is getting out of the way so as not to take the fall. Enter Greg Norman. Lol.” Another Twitter handle commented. “Oh good. Everyone loves Greg.”

An anti-Greg Twitter handle wrote. “Biggest mistake they could make lol.” Some of Norman’s fans feel that it is a set up by LIV Golf to make him take a fall for something. One such Twitter handle wrote, “This is a clear move to set him up to take the fall. Execs fleeing on their droves. They don’t tend to do that when there has been “enormous success” as Sharky claims.”

A Twitter handle named GolfGrinders wrote, ” @SharkGregNorman is taking over.” Another fans account of Greg, named RoryTrackr wrote, “I’m sure this will end well.” A pro-PGA Tour Twitter account wrote, “Cutting down on management cost since they have no revenue stream.” Clearly, there have been conflicting reactions to Greg being given more power.
