Well, Norman’s life sure was amazing. He held the world number one ranking for a frame of 331 weeks. His skill at the sport was unmatched for the longest period of time. Norman and his risk-taking side of personality surely won a lot of hearts and a lot of championships.

Rory McIlroy on why Greg needs to go

According to Rory McIlroy, one of the PGA Tour’s major loyalists, a prerequisite to peace talks between the rival leagues is Norman’s exit from the scene for good.

Only then McIlroy thinks it’s possible for both parties to find a common ground. That is to say, only with Norman gone, should peace talks be initiated.

Rory said, “I think Greg needs to go. He’s made his mark, I think now is the right time.”

Even though, LIV Golf authorities have recently denied news of Norman being replaced, McIlroy’s strong contentions sure hold some ground.
