Kim posted a venom-fuelled diatribe on X/Twitter about NBC Sports commentator Brandel Chamblee, who has been one of the most outspoken critics about LIV and its financial backers from Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund.
The move is not a permanent one, as this is now the third different analyst for NBC’s golf coverage in 2024 as the network continues to try to find a replacement for Paul Azinger, whose contract was not renewed this past November.
Along with Chamblee, Reed now is also targeting Golf Channel broadcasters Shane Bacon, Damon Hack and Eamon Lynch, as well as their media companies Golfweek and Gannett.
Patrick Reed, the former Masters champion who left the PGA Tour for LIV Golf this year, on Wednesday brought a lawsuit against Golf Channel and commentator Brandel Chamblee and is seeking damages for defamation.
Keeping an unusually low media profile during the opening events of his divisive LIV Golf Invitational Series, Greg Norman is finally ready to do the talking. In a wide-ranging interview with Australian Golf Digest, The Shark explains how golf found itself in conflict, what it all means for countries like Australia, and why his second attempt at globalising the pro circuit will end differently to the first.
