LIV Golf CEO Scott O’Neil reveals talks with LPGA commissioner Liv Moore regarding alleged expansion

The newly appointed LIV Golf CEO Scott O'Neil is currently in Australia for the LIV Golf Adelaide. He gave an exclusive interview to Golf Digest Australia and discussed various subjects, including plans to expand into women's golf through the LPGA Tour.

He plans to talk about how LIV Golf can help women's golf with the LPGA Tour commissioner Liz Moore and revealed he has already had a couple of conversations with Liz Moore.

"I’ve had the privilege of having a couple of conversations with Liz Moore, who’s the interim LPGA commissioner. She’s going to join me in Miami, and we’re going to talk a little bit about how we might contribute to the women’s game."

"With LIV’s introduction, we’d like to take all the good that we’ve learned and put that into practice if the women’s game is one that we enter," Scott O'Neil revealed.

Even though the fallout between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf is yet to be resolved, the golf world is heading toward peace once the ongoing negotiations between the PIF (parent body of LIV) and the PGA Tour are finalized.

Hence, the LPGA Tour and women's golf could receive immense benefits if LIV finds a way to contribute to the women's game.
