This may come as a shock to most golf fans, but Charles Howell III was always destined to join LIV Golf.
Despite his “22 wonderful years on the PGA Tour” that spanned 608 events and earned the 43-year-old more than $42 million with just three wins, Howell was ready for a change. Plus he idolizes LIV’s leader.
“Greg Norman was my hero as a kid growing up. I mean, every year at the Masters and Augusta, I couldn’t wait to get out there and watch Greg Norman play,” said Howell, an Augusta, Georgia, native. “Man, he was an idol. I had a life-sized cardboard cutout of Greg in my room way back in his Spalding days. He was just the man.”
