LIV Golf have signalled their intent with five key arrivals.

LIV Golf have signalled their intention by recruiting five new members to the executive team in an ambitious shake-up. It comes in the wake of Tiger Woods’ comments indicating ongoing discussions with the PGA Tour.

The reshuffle at LIV includes the appointment of David Phillipps as Chief Financial Officer, Ross Hallett named Head of Events, Katie O’Reilly made Head of Team Business Operations,

Pam Sacree taking over as Head of Human Resources, and Tim Taylor serving as the leader of the Saudi-backed league’s UK headquarters in London.

In the middle of this restructuring, golf icon Woods disclosed that talks with the PGA Tour were “heading in the right direction”,

ort’s future. However, the fresh appointments imply that the breakaway league is set on bolstering its position regardless of the outcome.

With a historical agreement signed last June between the PGA Tour and the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia (PIF), the existence of the breakaway league had been under question. But PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan reaffirmed that this agreement wouldn’t result in a ‘merger’ with the LIV set-up.

He said last summer: “Let me be clear that despite numerous reports, this arrangement is not a merger between the PGA Tour, LIV Golf and the PIF. The PIF will be a minority investor.”
