Charles Barkley makes a pass at the LIV Golf offer

Barkley was last seen on the course at Trump National Golf Club at Bedminster on Thursday. He was rumored to join the LIV Golf Series as a broadcaster after dining with LIV Golf Chief Greg Norman. But he recently made things clear about his final decision regarding his career in the field.

Barkley mentioned Norman in his statements and said, “I want to thank Greg Norman and LIV for their interest in me.” He added, “I wish those guys great success and nothing but the best. Turner and basketball have given me every single thing in my life—it is best for me to move on and I’m staying with Turner for the rest of my TV career.”

Barkley was very excited to meet Norman to discuss working with LIV Golf. He was very well aware that it could cost him his position at Turner and all the love from his fans. Barkley also made a statement earlier about the high amounts of money being paid to the players. He said that for $200 he could “kill a relative”.

However, things looked a lot different after his recent statement about sticking to Turner. Barkley is reportedly under a contract with TNT for 3 years and $30 million. According to his previous statements, he mentioned that it would take a lot of money for him to let go of TNT.

Barkley had no idea of TNT’s response

The former professional basketball player stated that he had no idea how TNT would react to the big news. He also doubts whether TNT would let him broadcast anymore, looking at his discussion with Greg Norman. “I don’t even know if they’ll let me do it. I might have to resign from TNT,” he said.

Nonetheless, there has been no official reaction by TNT regarding Charles Barkley yet. But chances are that his fans might still see him on TV in the same position he was in.
