Greg Norman Says He Won’t Attend or Watch the 2026 Masters After No Invitation

Augusta National’s continued exclusion underscores lingering fallout from his role launching LIV Golf.

Overview

  • Norman said he did not receive Augusta National’s customary guest invitation and will skip the Masters, following only the scores.
  • He said he will be overseas for meetings tied to expanding his golf-course design business.
  • Augusta National withheld an invite in 2023 to keep attention on the tournament, a rationale the club has maintained.
  • After that earlier snub, he bought a secondary-market ticket and walked with patrons during the 2024 tournament.
  • He has shifted focus to his Greg Norman Golf Course Design firm and his role on Brisbane’s 2032 Olympic organizing committee after leaving LIV in September.
