The LIV Golf story: Billions, birdies and bust-ups
5 Live Sport: All About... - Un pódcast de BBC Radio 5 Live
BBC golf correspondent Iain Carter presents a special programme looking at how the creation of the controversial Saudi-backed LIV Golf series has left a deep divide in the men’s professional game. Iain travels to the USA and Dubai to get both sides of the story, those who have stuck with the PGA Tour, Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods, and those who have broken away to LIV Golf, Phil Mickelson, Greg Norman, Ian Poulter – and even Donald Trump! We’ll explore whether these two sides can co-exist and what this means for the sport, and especially the Ryder Cup, in 2023.
