The 18-time Grand Slam winner, Chris Evert, had one of the best careers in women’s tennis history. Apart from tennis, she also had a colorful personal life, as she married three times in her career. Her last husband was the legendary Australian golfer, Greg Norman.

Recently, Norman was at the heart of many controversies after becoming the CEO of the Saudi-backed LIV golf tour. His ex-wife, Chris Evert, recently opened up about Norman’s involvement with the LIV tour.

In a recent interview, the former American tennis player, Evert, talked about feeling skeptical after hearing about Greg Norman’s involvement with the LIV golf tour. She said, “He knows how I feel. I don’t support it.“

Notably, Evert’s one of the best friends and arguably the greatest female tennis player ever, Martina Navratilova, has also been very critical of the LIV golf tour. Previously, she criticized many golfers as they switched from the PGA Tour to LIV golf.

Moreover, there were plenty of rumors that a merger might happen in the future between PGA and LIV, as many golfers are jumping ship. As Norman is at the helm of LIV golf, we could see even more golfers switching tours.
