A human rights activist has written an open to the LPGA commissioner, board of directors and players to urge them not to work with the LIV Golf Series. Earlier this year, LPGA commissioner Mollie Marcoux Samaan admitted she would 'engage' with LIV CEO Greg Norman over possibly working with the Saudi-backed series.
This week some of golf's biggest female stars will compete in the Aramco Team Series in New York, another tournament receiving Saudi funding. Whilst that plays out some of the sport's most recognised male players will be competing on the breakaway circuit, as it makes the trip to the Saudi capital Jeddah.
Following LIV's maiden season in the male game, there has been some speculation that the Saudi-funded series could one day branch out into women's golf also.
