Rory will be offended by this - Fans react as Paige Spiranac asks PGA Tour to follow LIV Golf and allow shorts

By Vishnu Mohan Modified 09 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Bass Pro Shops Legends of Golf - Round Two (Image by Getty) LIV Golf recently announced its decision to allow golfers to wear shorts during tournament rounds. The announcement by LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman was added to the long list of changes introduced to the sport by the controversial Saudi-backed league. The move received mixed reactions from fans. LIV Golf players were earlier allowed to wear shorts during practice rounds. Now, golfers are allowed to wear them at will during the series. Greg Norman released a 12-second video on social media and called LIV the "first league or tour ever" to make shorts official. Like other decisions taken by LIV, this too was met with criticism. However, a few others jumped in and lauded the decision. A few supporters of the newly introduced shorts rule even called on the PGA Tour to follow suit and make the outfit official. Golfer-turned-influencer Paige Spiranac was amongst them. Spiranac came forward lauding the decision taken by LIV Golf. She jumped in on the debate and said it was "cool."
