The PGA Tour vs LIV Golf animosity has been the highlight of the world of golf in the last few months. Tiger Woods and Greg Norman have clearly picked their respective sides on the battlefield. A great Woods-Norman story might as well be a plausible explanation to their current viewpoints.
Norman and Woods are possibly not in their best place currently. This could be accounted to multiple possible reasons. Following upheavals in Tiger’s personal life, Greg made a public assumption of his possible future. This was back in 2015. He said, “He will win again. But a major? I don’t see it.”
However, in 2019, Woods proved all previously held assumptions about his future wrong, including Norman’s. The pro golfer made one of the greatest comebacks the world of golf has ever seen and silenced all critiques.
In an attempt to make amends, Norman wrote Woods a handwritten note and made an attempt to drive a long way to deliver it in person. However, the result of this “sweet” gesture did not turn out to be the same way as many would expect it to, at least for Norman.
According to the Shark, “When Tiger won the Masters this year, I wrote him a handwritten note and hand-delivered it to his guard at his gate. Well, I never heard a word back from the guy. I don’t know – maybe Tiger just dislikes me. I have no idea.”
In a recent press conference, Tiger talked about why Greg Norman has to leave in order for the peace talks between the rival leagues to ideally begin. Tiger said, “Greg’s gotta leave.” This is not the first time a PGA Tour professional hinted at Greg’s exit so a peace pact can come into action. Rory McIlroy’s statement hinting the same went viral some time back.
