Danielle Kang withdraws from tournaments over health concerns
Branding for the forthcoming LIV Golf event which begins this week. Photograph: Glyn Kirk/AFP/Getty ImagesFar from being “dead in the water”, as Rory McIlroy described the start-up efforts of the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Invitational circuit, the new tour will tee-off this week at the Centurion club in London with some familiar names on board – Dustin, G-Mac, Poults and Na among them – and, also, with a newly announced broadcasting vehicle for global viewership.
Danielle Kang has decided not to play in this week’s Shop Rite LPGA tournament or next week’s Meijer Classic on the LPGA Tour and is undecided about playing in the KPMG LPGA Championship due to ongoing worries about her health. So much pretence with LIV about how golf ‘needs’ new formats and innovation. This happens to be a week where that is legitimately happening on @DPWorldTour and @LETgolf with the Scandinavian Mixed, putting men and women on equal footing. Maybe tune in to the better side of golf – LET player Meghan MacLaren sounding out.
