PGA Tour faces awkward scenario with LIV Golf rebel Cameron Smith up for big award

The PGA Tour could well be left red-faced with LIV Golf rebel Cameron Smith up for the American-based circuit's Player of The Year award. The Australian made the controversial decision to join the Saudi-backed circuit following the end of a remarkably impressive season on the PGA Tour.

Smith has been at the centre of golf's civil war between the PGA Tour and LIV, following his recent move. The two rival circuit's have been locked in battle since LIV began to lure away players from the American-based tour earlier this summer.

Despite swapping his allegiances though, Smith could well still be named the PGA Tour's best player of 2022 after being nominated alongside world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and FedEx Cup champion Rory McIlroy.
