LIV golf has been branded "entirely driven by money" and bad for the game by the head of the R&A.
And Martin Slumbers pledged to change qualification rules to make playing futures Opens more difficult for rebel players. He also said Saudi-backed LIV’s claim to be growing the game was “just not credible”.
Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy have this week slammed the breakaway tour and supported the ban for two-time champion Greg Norman from the celebrations at the 150th Open this week. And R&A chief executive Slumbers said: “Professional golfers are entitled to choose where they want to play and to accept the prize money that is offered to them. I have absolutely no issue with that at all.
