Cameron Smith Signs Lucrative LIV Golf Deal
Golfing Superstar Joins Controversial Tour
Millionaire Deal and World Ranking Influence Move
After weeks of speculation, it has been confirmed that Cameron Smith, the 2022 Open champion, has signed a lucrative deal to join the LIV Golf Tour. The deal, according to reports, is worth over $100 million.
Smith, the captain of Ripper GC, has claimed his second career individual title and currently ranks second in the FedEx Cup standings. He has a realistic chance of winning the FedEx Cup this year, which would be a major accomplishment in his career.
After his victory at the 150th Open Championship at St Andrews, speculation arose about Smith's potential move to the LIV Golf Tour. On Tuesday, LIV Golf officially announced his signing.
Smith has revealed that financial compensation was just one of the factors that influenced his decision to join LIV Golf. He also cited the tour's innovative format and its commitment to growing the game of golf globally.
The signing of Smith is a significant coup for LIV Golf, which has been criticized for its breakaway from the traditional golf ecosystem. However, the tour has attracted several high-profile players with its generous paydays and unique format.
