LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman said Tuesday that he will not attend this year’s QBE Shootout, which he founded in 1989.
Norman has hosted and played in the event every year since its inception, but now finds himself on the outs with the more traditional golf world as he heads the Saudi-backed competitor to the PGA Tour.
The tournament once known as the Shark Shootout – based on Norman’s nickname – is an unofficial money event that takes place annually on the Tour in Naples, Florida.
The 54-hole, no cut event that pairs players into teams of two is scheduled to be played Dec.
