☆ LIV Golf loses its bid to earn ranking points over questions about a closed shop
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-10 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

LIV Golf is playing only for cash, not world ranking points, after the Official World Golf Ranking board determined it could not fairly measure the 48-man league with the other 24 tours around the world. LIV Golf made its debut in June 2022, and the lack of world ranking points has taken an enormous toll. Among those no longer in the top 100 are Dustin Johnson, Bryson DeChambeau and Talor Gooch, who has three LIV Golf victories this year. LIV Golf can reapply to be part of the OWGR system, though the board made it clear that turnover, objective access to LIV Golf and relegating players who don't perform remain key points in getting ranking points. There's also the matter of the PGA Tour, European tour and Saudi backers of LIV Golf (Public Investment Fund) working out a commercial partnership announced in June.

Even as he was staking his claim in the 1990s as the greatest player the NBA has ever seen, the Bulls icon was a regular guest on the golf course. Bobby Weed Golf Design“Slaughterhouse 23”Weed had his two pillars for a great golf course — an engaged owner and a good piece of property, though the latter would require some polishing. Bobby Weed Golf DesignThe course didn’t just need to suit the playstyle of its owner, though, it needed to enhance it. Bobby Weed Golf DesignTaking a swingCompared to Bobby Weed Golf Design, Nichols Architects had considerably less experience in golf courses, but it did have one key advantage in its efforts to beat other bids to build The Grove XXIII’s clubhouse. “That’s like the ultimate compliment … to have his own golf course and to shape and mold that golf course for him and his friends, it’s just where he wants to be.
