Masters 2023 protests planned as 9/11 families and survivors slam LIV Golf decision

Survivors and the families of victims of the 9/11 terror attacks are planning to protest at Augusta National, after LIV Golf players were given the green light to compete at next year's Masters. Following the formation of the controversial breakaway circuit, it remained up in the air as to whether LIV players would be able to compete at the opening major of the campaign in Georgia next April.

This comes after those who decided to make the Saudi switch were suspended from the PGA Tour earlier this year. However, in the latest chapter of golf's civil war, Augusta bosses have allowed those who are eligible to compete at next year's Masters.

The news was confirmed by Masters chairman Fred Ridley, who revealed the famous tournament is set to 'honour its tradition' in allowing past winners, and those eligible to compete.
