Greg Norman has opened up about the future of LIV Golf, disclosing his goals for the Saudi Arabian circuit going forward.

In a recent interview, Norman said he intended to increase the LIV Golf events. The CEO also expressed his desire to host Saudi Circuit competitions globally.

LIV Golf only hosted eight tournaments in its inaugural season. However, they increased their events to 14 in 2023.

"Golf is a global sport right. And one thing we want to do with LIV, and we are doing it with LIV in the 22 events, we’ve taken it around the world. And there’s places we want to go where we haven’t been yet and we will get to those destinations," Norman said, as per Flushing It Golf.

LIV Golf has been going strong since its inception, despite being chastised by the golf community around the world. Recently, Jon Rahm, the current World No. 3, also joined the circuit; the Spaniard will compete in LIV Golf next year.

The future of the circuit was seemingly in question earlier this year, when PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan announced a merger with the breakaway series. However, Norman subsequently assured fans that the series would bounce back strongly and continue to be a 'stand-alone enterprise.'

In his interview with Sports Illustrated in June 2023, Norman said:

“LIV is and will continue to be a standalone enterprise. Our business model will not change. We changed history, and we’re not going anywhere.”

LIV Golf has unveiled the schedule and venue of most of its tournaments for the 2024 season.
