GALLOWAY, N.J. (AP) — LIV Golf Commissioner Greg Norman suggested two months ago the Saudi-backed would consider adding a women's tour.
The PGA Tour partnership with Saudi Arabia's enormous wealth fund instead essentially left out the LPGA in the foreseeable future of any chance of at least considering the idea to defect and join a rival league that paid signing bonuses of $100 million or more to lure players away from the PGA Tour.
There was never any firm plan of a women's version of LIV on the table.
History showed the Saudi money surely would have been considerably more massive than any payout offered by the LPGA Tour.
