LIV Golf chief Greg Norman has hailed the signing of Cameron Smith as "the best thing that happened to us".
The Saudi-backed series has driven a huge wedge through the world of golf, providing competition to the PGA and DP World Tours by offering huge sums of guaranteed cash to those who join. It has seen a host of players, many of whom are now in the twilights of their careers, move over.
It was the capture of Norman's compatriot Smith however, that caused the world to take note. The Australian had reached a career high of world No.2 after winning the Open at St Andrews, which came after his victory at The Players, meaning he'd made the jump whilst at his peak.
