The list of non-LIV Golf lovers appears to be endless. Time and again, the LIV Golf has been subjected to a lot of opposition in many golfing spheres. The creation of the league had extremely polarised opinions and saw the golfing world get divided into two major categories.

Legacy over money for Chamblee

The PGA tour winner went on to applaud the Coody brothers as well for understanding and choosing the path of preservation of legacy over money.
