Cameron Smith, the Australian and former World No. 2 golfer, expressed his desire for LIV Golf to continue, but stated he would return to the PGA Tour if it doesn’t. Smith made this statement ahead of the LIV Golf New York event in Bedminster, N.J.
LIV Golf’s Future
Smith signed with LIV Golf in 2022, receiving a contract reportedly worth $140 million. He is the captain of the all-Australian team Ripper GC. Despite the financial troubles of LIV Golf, Smith remains optimistic about its future.
Smith emphasized the importance of LIV Golf for Australian golf, citing the league’s positive impact on junior golf and the growth of the sport in the country. He also mentioned the success of LIV Golf’s Adelaide event, which set records for golf in Australia.
Although multiple reports suggest that the LIV Golf Team Championship scheduled for late August in Michigan may be canceled, Smith said he is preparing for the event as if it’s still on schedule.
