Cameron Smith has been having a  season to remember. With his maiden Major win at St. Andrews, the golfer has been adored and loved by several fans around the world for his outstanding performance. But like many of his former PGA Tour colleagues, Smith too has been surrounded by the speculations of joining LIV Golf. With the Australian set to miss the second playoff event, the FedEx Cup, fans around the world believe he has joined the lucrative Tour.

Cameron Smith has been a shining star on the PGA Tour this year. Apart from his record-breaking Open Championship win, the World No. 2 finished tied in third position in both the Masters as well as the PGA Championship. He has helped in bringing a new range of golf fans from the Australian continent.

However, for the past few months, Cam Smith has been surrounded by rumors of joining the LIV Golf. Despite his rejection of the Tour in most interviews, the gossip doesn’t seem to leave the golfer, especially after his recent withdrawal from the BMW Championship.

Cameron Smith finished the first event of FedExCup tied in 13th position. He finished with a score of 9-under-par. During the tournament, the Aussie was heckled several times for his links with the Saudi-backed Tour.

Despite that, Smith maintained his composure and completed the third round with no controversy.  He later talked about how he avoided the distractions by saying, “There’s definitely been a few more, but for me, I’m just trying to hit the best shot I can. That’s what I’m here to do is to hit good golf shots and make birdies.”
