LIV defector Laurie Canter predicts an imminent breakthrough over the civil war which is threatening to tear golf apart.
English ace Canter, who pocketed £118,000 for coming 38th in LIV’s second event in Portland, is preparing for the Open at St Andrews. The R&A said last month that players in the Saudi-backed tour who had already qualified would be allowed to compete at the Old Course.
But organisers of the 150th Open have since banned Greg Norman from the Champions' Dinner at the Old Course. The R&A feared the presence of LIV chief executive Norman could overshadow the historic event and the Australian, who won the Open in 1986 and 1993, responded by calling the decision "petty".
