Mastermind Greg Norman STRONGLY RUMORED To Sign Two of the World’s Best Players to LIV Golf

After the end of the LIV Golf invitational series, Greg Norman is ready for next year. The preparations have started, and the tour aims to have all the players sign up for the campaign by the end of 2022. According to the reports, the following year’s event is assumed to look different from this year’s. Next year, the Saudi-backed tour will stage 14 events emphasizing team competitions. 

According to the LIV’s president, Atul Khosla, next year will be less volatile. The schedule is already in order, and Valderrama will see a stop tour by the end of November 2022. Talking about changes next year, two of the world’s best golfers are assumed to join LIV next year. Discussing new signings of LIV, Khosla said that the authorities are in n middle of the discussion. This means that these two players are possible names to join LIV. Let’s find out who they are.

Who are the secret names to joining LIV Golf?

The rumors in October have linked two big names to join LIV: Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele. If this happens, the PGA tour will suffer a loss, and joining LIV will be an enormous blow to PGA. However, LIV does not want to comment on the matter and has revealed no names. Besides, they also speculated Mito Pereira and Thomas Pieters about joining LIV. These players joining the Saudi-backed tour might also lose their rights to world ranking. However, only time will tell if that will happen.

Khosla is very particular about the new signees. He wants all the new players to join by the end of the year and settle in. In the coming months, the new joiners will be familiar with everything, and eventually, things will turn out well. He said, “We are going to get it done this year. We want the teams locked in by the new year. It will play itself out over the next couple of months.”

Joining LIV might benefit the players, as the tour is looking for broadcasters. Currently, the matches are only available online on YouTube and the tour’s website. But if they finally find a host, Cantlay and Schauffele will benefit from it. 

What is the strategy for the Saudi-backed tour?

According to the reports from an insider close to GolfMagic, LIV golf is planning to target the current world’s top 15 and get at least three to sign the deal. And from the top 50 golfers, they want to have four new signees included in the tour. Currently, the opponent of the PGA has only one player from the top 20, Cameron Smith, standing firm at number three.
