LIV Golf just added another major brand under its belt. A few days ago, the PIF-backed league secured a major deal with Corpay as their corporate FX provider. The company is famous for being a part of multiple sports organizations. But the LIV Golf isn’t done yet as they announced a major deal with an Italian company.

In a recent press release, LIV Golf inked a multi-year deal with the Panini Group, the world’s largest sports and entertainment collectibles company. Together, the two will bring forth exclusive trading cards. The Panini Group is a behemoth in their field with a value of $3B, per reports.

Greg Norman was more than elated about this partnership. “Just as our league continues to innovate and bring professional team golf mainstream, our partnership will introduce new products to the market for millions of passionate fans and collectors to enjoy. As a former player, I’m particularly excited for our players and teams as we work with Panini to elevate their platforms in this space,” he said.
