Much has been written about the fate of LIV Golf over the last few weeks. But with the investment they’ve made in the Asian Tour, another big question is what the future holds for them. Flushing It Golf spoke with executives at LIV Golf Andalucia about their plans, and they are committed to utilising The International Series on the Asian Tour to help elevate national opens across the globe as LIV Golf 2.0 develops. In fact, several senior players even mentioned, unprompted, the importance of building it within the potential 2027 schedule. However, members on the Asian Tour admit although they are very happy with the success of the partnership so far, there were concerns when the LIV Golf backed purse increase of the Kolon Korean Open was pulled at the last minute, and they want options left open amid the uncertainty. Flushing It Golf reached out to the Asian Tour and they offered this official comment: “LIV Golf have been a terrific partner for the Asian Tour over the past five years – facilitating the creation of The International Series, which has been hugely successful. These premium events have added a new dimension to our tour, boasting world-class fields competing for elevated prizemoney at outstanding venues. In particular, the initiative has afforded us the opportunity to travel to exciting new markets in Africa, the Middle East and Europe. We look forward to seeing the remainder of The International Series events played out on the Asian Tour this season. “Our senior leadership are in constant dialogue with stakeholders and partners on how best to move forward and build on the successes over the past five years. We are very confident that solutions will be found that are in the best interests of our members and partners. They will pave the way for a strong schedule to be in place for 2027 and ensure long-term growth. “We look forward to providing updates over the next few months and we appreciate everyone’s patience as we navigate through to the next cycle.” The International Series are fantastic tournaments and have without question helped offer more opportunities for golf in the Asian Tour region. Several players, like Scott Vincent from Zimbabwe, have completely changed their life by qualifying for the LIV Golf League. And fans all across the globe have been able to see star players in the flesh. If LIV Golf is to succeed going forward, they desperately need authentic pathway systems to create and elevate their own stars. They simply cannot afford to buy them in anymore. The Asian Tour offers that, but LIV Golf are not the only tour interested in strengthening links with the region. In fact, Flushing It Golf understands the PGA Tour attempted to form a much closer relationship with the Asian Tour several years ago, with an offer made to create a formal partnership, but that was rejected by the board. A few years later, the Asian Tour then partnered with LIV Golf in a deal worth $300 million. It’s entirely possible though that the PGA Tour, along with the DP World Tour, will sense weakness and now look to make another approach to grow their global pathway system. This leaves the Asian Tour in a position where they have multiple options available. No matter what happens to their partnership with LIV Golf, the Asian Tour will be just fine. CEO and Commissioner Cho Minn Thant will continue to do whatever possible to elevate golf in the region and offer opportunities for professional golfers from all around the globe.

Here's almost 3 minutes of Billy Horschel talking about PGA National, overseeding and a problem that isn't just at the Cognizant. "Obviously we give our opinion of what we think is best for the golf course and how they want to set it up and challenge it, but also, the owners have a say in it. "This isn't just PGA National; it goes to a lot of courses that we play throughout the years."

Jon Rahm on joining LIV Golf: “I believe in the growth of the game of golf. I’ve largely spoken about how Seve improved the game of golf in Spain and I’ve always said how I would like to do the same thing over there. And if I can reach a bigger audience it would be amazing and I do believe this process will help me do that.” 🇪🇸

The 5th hole at New South Wales Golf Club near Sydney. Quite simply one of the world’s greatest golf holes. Sometimes you dream of playing a golf hole and it doesn’t quite meet expectations. This one exceeds them. The tee shot is truly thrilling. You are trying to hit blind over the hill in the distance. Death on the left, not much better on the right. But get over and you can reach the par 5 in 2 easily. As you peak the hill, you get one of the great reveals in all of golf. Truly breathtaking. A golf hole worth flying across the world for.

Fred Ridley gave perhaps his most strong take yet on supporting golf ball rollback. "As for professional golf, we hold firm in our belief that the greats of the game are defined not merely by how far they hit the ball, but their extraordinary skill in all aspects of the game. Their ability to shape shots, to take on risk, and to execute under pressure is at the heart of championship golf and is best displayed through a full spectrum of shot-making opportunities. "Regulation of the golf ball is not an attempt to turn back time or stifle progress. It is an effort to preserve the essence of what makes golf the great game that it is."

Competing with the best in the world means zero compromises. Every time I push my limits, the excitement rises — heart beats faster, breath gets stronger. I love golf. I love competing. I love beating someone — and even more often, beating myself. Golf also teaches me to know myself. Chasing perfection is the goal, but nobody is perfect — so I learn from every mistake and every bad decision. No slowing down. I work every day to deliver and get better than yesterday. First tournament of the season starts Wednesday in LIV Golf — more time to train and more focus on my game. Season begins. Work continues. Let’s go #gomeronk Cleeks Golf Club LIV Golf

I’m a speed golfer now 😱 Honestly the most fun I’ve had in a long time. before the last two days, I had never played speed golf in my life. And I’ve only started running since May 1. And somehow I played all 18 holes in 70 minutes which was 5 1/2 miles and shot 85. I thought the running was going be the hard part but it turns out playing golf with your heart rate at 170 and trying to figure out timing was really difficult. I’m headed to the speed golf US open at the end of July and I’m gonna give it my best shot. Huge, thank you to legends of the sport Scott Dawley and Jason Hawkins. AND I couldn’t be doing this without the sponsor of the series Garmin i’ve been tracking all of my runs and using the watch during golf as well this summer and it is honestly becoming essential in my life.

Under the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, the Federal Government is committed to completing the National Library Headquarters in Abuja. Over the past few months, the Federal Ministry of Education has held several meetings with members of the National Library team and its contractors to discuss the resumption of the project. The project, which was designed in 1981 and began construction in 2006, is the third (3rd) of three national monuments (the National Ecumenical Centre and the National Mosque) that has yet to be completed. This week, my team and I toured the project site with the CEO of the National Library, the project’s architect, and contractor to assess the progress made before construction paused in 2012. By June 2025, we will proceed with Phase 1 of the project, which will include the completion of Basement Levels 1 and 2, the Ground Floor, the Second Floor, and the building's external works and furnishings. Mr. President is deeply passionate about Nigeria’s human capital development, of which education is an integral part. The President has also instructed TETFund to allocate funding towards the project to ensure its resumption and completion. With a National Library, we can provide all Nigerians with a communal learning environment to help them grow and become their best selves.

National support, team national support, city local support, we grass root ourselves there. There's a couple ideas that we have - quite a few ideas that we have that could be interesting."

I putted well on fast greens, slopey greens. I felt like it was the most open and fair championship for tough golf out there, that every week it could be anybody's week, right? And I think it's the difficult part about professional golf is that no matter if you're playing the best golf of your life, you can go up there and not play your best." "As long as I stay focused on the golf course at hand and the shot at hand, give myself the best opportunity to win by executing the best shots and feeling the most comfortable, that's what I'm going to do. "I think it's more of who can persevere the most, who has the most resilience. I think that's what's so beautiful about U.S. Open is that stuff's going to get thrown at you pretty hard, and it's not going to be easy to combat those issues. And I think the one that is the most resilient usually goes on top. #USOpen | Crushers GC

I think it would definitely bring more eyeballs to the sport, which is always a good thing. I think golf is a great game. I think it's something that everybody should have a chance to be introduced to. I think you learn a lot about yourself.

Chairman of Augusta National Golf Club and the Masters Tournament, Fred Ridley, delivered an impressive press conference yesterday. The most striking part was his firm assessment on the golf ball rollback debate. In his opening remarks, he said: “Finally, I've commented for the past several years on the subject of distance. We have been consistent in our support of the governing bodies in their effort to regulate the distance elite players are hitting the golf ball. Recognizing that the implementation of the Overall Distance Standard test for golf balls may be delayed to 2030, I want to reemphasize that support and affirm our position as the USGA and R&A represent their collective obligation as custodians of the game. “I also want to be clear that our position is grounded on much more than protecting the Augusta National golf course. We will continue to make modifications as are necessary to react to driving distances that in some cases exceed 350 yards. “Unfortunately, many courses, including some iconic venues, do not have that option. Until recent years golf has been a game of imagination, creativity, and variety. The game has become much more one-dimensional. As players drive the ball prodigious distances and routinely hit short irons into par-4s and even some par-5s, this issue goes beyond competitive impacts. Increased course lengths results in more time, more cost, and more environmental concerns. “The data that has been shared with all stakeholders makes one thing clear: The impact to the recreational game will be immaterial. All of us in this room and millions of weekend golfers around the world will be hard-pressed to notice the effects of this change, and I do not believe our enjoyment of the game will be affected. “As for professional golf, we hold firm in our belief that the greats of the game are defined not merely by how far they hit the ball, but their extraordinary skill in all aspects of the game. Their ability to shape shots, to take on risk, and to execute under pressure is at the heart of championship golf and is best displayed through a full spectrum of shot-making opportunities. “Regulation of the golf ball is not an attempt to turn back time or stifle progress. It is an effort to preserve the essence of what makes golf the great game that it is.” Later in the press conference when asked about the role of the Masters in the roll back, he said: “There has been -- there's always been quite a lot of agreement. My feeling on this subject is failure's not an option. I think we need to continue to work together to come to some agreement. “Tough issues like this require compromise, and I think there has been some compromise to date. There's certainly commercial interests that are at play here, and we all know what those are, but at the same time, I think, if we can look at this from the standpoint -- and it's not just trying to -- it's not the good old days. That's not what we're trying to do. “What we're trying to do is to protect the integrity of what makes golf so great. I think I tried to articulate it in my comments, and that's that it's more than about just hitting prodigious drives. “I talked to Jackson Herrington, one of our young amateurs, and he told me that yesterday he hit it over the bunker on 1 and 5, which is about a 325-yard carry, and one was into the wind. I've said that we can make changes, but there's not much we can do to make changes, number one, unless we tear down the Eisenhower Cabin, and we're not going to do that. “We'll make changes when we can, but I think it's time to really address this issue. It's been talked about for a long time.” Whatever your stance on the rollback, these are the strongest comments yet. “Failure is not an option.” The Masters

Chairman of Augusta National Golf Club and the Masters Tournament, Fred Ridley, delivered an impressive press conference yesterday. The most striking part was his firm assessment on the golf ball rollback debate. In his opening remarks, he said: “Finally, I've commented for the past several years on the subject of distance. We have been consistent in our support of the governing bodies in their effort to regulate the distance elite players are hitting the golf ball. Recognizing that the implementation of the Overall Distance Standard test for golf balls may be delayed to 2030, I want to reemphasize that support and affirm our position as the USGA and R&A represent their collective obligation as custodians of the game. “I also want to be clear that our position is grounded on much more than protecting the Augusta National golf course. We will continue to make modifications as are necessary to react to driving distances that in some cases exceed 350 yards. “Unfortunately, many courses, including some iconic venues, do not have that option. Until recent years golf has been a game of imagination, creativity, and variety. The game has become much more one-dimensional. As players drive the ball prodigious distances and routinely hit short irons into par-4s and even some par-5s, this issue goes beyond competitive impacts. Increased course lengths results in more time, more cost, and more environmental concerns. “The data that has been shared with all stakeholders makes one thing clear: The impact to the recreational game will be immaterial. All of us in this room and millions of weekend golfers around the world will be hard-pressed to notice the effects of this change, and I do not believe our enjoyment of the game will be affected. “As for professional golf, we hold firm in our belief that the greats of the game are defined not merely by how far they hit the ball, but their extraordinary skill in all aspects of the game. Their ability to shape shots, to take on risk, and to execute under pressure is at the heart of championship golf and is best displayed through a full spectrum of shot-making opportunities. “Regulation of the golf ball is not an attempt to turn back time or stifle progress. It is an effort to preserve the essence of what makes golf the great game that it is.” Later in the press conference when asked about the role of the Masters in the roll back, he said: “There has been -- there's always been quite a lot of agreement. My feeling on this subject is failure's not an option. I think we need to continue to work together to come to some agreement. “Tough issues like this require compromise, and I think there has been some compromise to date. There's certainly commercial interests that are at play here, and we all know what those are, but at the same time, I think, if we can look at this from the standpoint -- and it's not just trying to -- it's not the good old days.

Scottie Scheffler says if the PGA Tour were to help elevate national opens he’d love to play in Australia and New Zealand: “It definitely interests me. I'd like to see how it shapes out the next couple of years. There's a lot of places I think I'd like to play. “There's always just, you know, the time and the place for me. I'm at a time in my life where I have a young family at home and young kids. Those are times -- the fall is a special time for our family. It's where we can really check out and be together, and I get to spend a lot of time with my kids. So I hold those moments pretty sacred. “But at the same time I love golf and I would love to be able to play more internationally. Like Australia; New Zealand is a place we would love to be able to go to. My wife as always wanted to go to New Zealand. “But like I said, I love this style of golf, and I feel like it's pretty unique to here. But going to play the Sandbelt in Australia would be pretty special as well. Hopefully I can find the time. It's definitely an intriguing part of the schedule and yeah, it definitely interests me, as well.” Personally, I think it would be absolutely class if more top players travelled to these countries. The fans deserve it and so do the incredible golf courses they have to offer! 🇦🇺🇳🇿 DP World Tour PGA TOUR Genesis Scottish Open
