LIV chief Greg Norman slammed by Olympic champion and urged to “stop and listen”

LIV Golf chief Greg Norman has been slammed by Olympic champion Kieran Perkins amid more criticism for the breakaway circuit.

A number of golf's biggest names have been lured by the Saudi-backed format, including Australian stars Marc Leishman and Cameron Smith, leading to a civil war with the PGA Tour and DP World Tours. Perkins, who won successive swimming gold medals in 1992 and 1996, is now CEO of the Australian Sports Commission and has become the latest to criticise his countryman Norman.

"Just stop and listen to the people around you, Greg, and think about some of the stuff that's being told to you," he told the National Press Club. "See if actually there's some value in it, instead of assuming you have all the answers."
