Fred Couples’ Recent Dig At Greg Norman Reveals The LIV Golf CEO Buying 2024 Masters Ticket Himself
The 1992 Masters champion Fred Couples recently shared a post on X (formerly Twitter) targeting the LIV Golfer camp for not arranging a ticket for their CEO. A total of 13 players from the Disruptive League were invited to play at the 2024 Masters. However, the 64-year-old took a sly dig at them and offered the Shark a ticket to next year’s edition.
In the recent X post, Fred Couples wrote,
“13 @livgolf_league players in the field for @themasters and none of them could get @sharkgregnorman a ticket? Greg had to buy one? Next year if you need one Shark let me know.”
