The Saudi Public Investment Fund, which financially supports LIV, is looking for a new executive director to replace Greg Norman, reports Sports Business Journal.
While the Australian has strong support within the tour, other players such as Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy have said publicly that Norman needs to step down for the PGA Tour and LIV Golf to coexist.
Once a new CEO is hired, it’s unclear what exactly the White Shark’s role will be, but Norman is expected to fill a senior position.
Although it has been carried out quietly, the company that supports the LIV is looking for renowned executives in the world of sports for the position, and among the first to be targeted is Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark. .
