Olympic Gold Medalist Scott Hamilton & LIV Golf Chief Events Office Ron Cross Join Me...
In this episode, I'm joined by 1984 Olympic Gold Medal Figure Skater Scott Hamilton and LIV Golf's Chief Events Officer Ron Cross.
Scott details his lifelong battle with cancer that he learned started at birth. Scott stopped growing at 4 years old and doctor after doctor either couldn't figure out why or misdiagnosed him. At one point his parents were told he had 6 months to live following a misdiagnosis of a disease he didn't have. Throughout his life, he's battled testicular cancer and an ongoing brain tumor that continues to shrink and grow to this day. Hear about his battle with the disease while simultaneously reaching the summit of men's figure skating.
Ron Cross answers all the questions we've been asking ourselves about LIV Golf.
- What do you say to the naysayers about where the money comes from?
- Will the Saudi's get tired of spending the money 2 years from now and shut LIV Golf down?
- Is team franchise ownership the model for how they will make money?
- Are more guys set to jump to LIV following the Tour Championship?
- Is a network TV on the horizon for next year?
- Is there a way for LIV and the PGA Tour to work together?
- Will there be a Women's LIV Golf Tour?
Hear his answers to these questions plus his growth in the game from tournament volunteer to various VP roles he had with the PGA Tour.
