LIV Golf's recent announcement to transition from a 54-hole format to 72 holes has sparked debate among players and analysts alike. Rory McIlroy has publicly questioned the rationale behind this change, labeling it 'peculiar' and suggesting it may not be enough to secure the tour's long-desired entry into the Official World Golf Ranking. As LIV Golf continues to navigate its identity in the competitive landscape of professional golf, this format change could be a pivotal moment in its quest for legitimacy and acceptance among traditional golf circles.
