DORAL, Fla. — The new CEO of the LIV Golf League pushed back on recent media reports that suggested confidence about a deal with the PGA Tour had waned, but acknowledged he is fine if an agreement doesn’t come together, citing the patience of his Saudi Arabian bosses.
Scott O’Neil, who took over for golf legend Greg Norman in January, acknowledged that this week in Miami is a big one for the league as it plays its first domestic event with Fox, its new television rights partner.
