Former World No. 1 Greg Norman has been condemned for suggesting ‘we’ve all made mistakes’ when questioned on Saudi Arabia’s human rights record and the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Norman is the CEO of the LIV Golf International Series, the new and wholly controversial £207m competition. The first of eight events - which is designed to compete with the PGA Tour - takes place at Centurion Club near London in June.
However, while Norman attended an event set to promote his new series, most questions surrounded accusations of ‘sports washing’ and the murder of Saudi journalist Khashoggi at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. The Australian’s response was hauntingly nonchalant.
