LIV Golf,Greg Norman,Scott O'neil

LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman is set to be replaced, with Scott O'Neil expected to take over. The change could facilitate a merger between LIV Golf and the PGA Tour, as negotiations between PIF and PGA Tour for golf's future are in progress.

Greg Norman, the current CEO and commissioner of LIV Golf, is reportedly set to be replaced by Scott O’Neil, a former NBA and NHL executive. This change is thought to pave the way for a potential merger between Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund and the PGA Tour. Norman, who played a significant role in establishing LIV Golf and attracting key players like Cameron Smith and Dustin Johnson away from the PGA Tour, is expected to remain on LIV's board.

The move is seen as an effort to have a more peacemaker-like figure in the role, as talks between the PIF and PGA Tour on the future of golf are reportedly ongoing
