Greg Norman said he'd win a debate with Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods on the topic of how those PGA Tour marquee names benefited financially from the upstart new circuit.Norman served as LIV Golf's commissioner and CEO upon its inception before being replaced by Scott O'Neil last week.

During his time as LIV Golf CEO, Greg Norman never missed an opportunity to promote the fledging golf league, often with a bombastic tone that only seemed to fuel the tension the Saudi-backed endeavor created while disrupting the world of men’s professional golf.

LIV Golf’s outgoing CEO Greg Norman has asked Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy to both recognise that they have benefited from the breakaway league’s creation. Woods and McIlroy, two of golf’s biggest names, have been staunch opponents of LIV Golf and offered the PGA Tour its biggest show of strength when they remained with the established circuit.

Greg Norman said "I really have changed the game of golf more than what people realize" in a recent interview.
