The National Press Club has slammed LIV Golf's new television deal as a "shameful PR stunt" that further glosses over human rights issues in Saudi Arabia.
This week, LIV CEO Greg Norman lauded a "momentous" day after the rebel tour finally secured live broadcast of their events. The eight tournaments held in 2022, that were spread across England, America, Thailand and Saudi Arabia, received paltry audiences as they could only be streamed via the LIV website and YouTube page.
However, 14 events are scheduled for 2023, all running over theree days and 54-holes. They will be aired live on the Netstar owned CW network on Saturdays and Sundays. Friday’s opening rounds meanwhile, will be available to viewers on the CW App.
