Slugger On Norman Reaching Out To Manage Saudi Golf League's Rules

Ken Willis caught up with formerly-retired PGA Tour rules and competitions director Slugger White about his new role running that side of things for Greg Norman and the Kingdom’s ambitions in golf.

White said it came down to Norman’s outreach.

“Yeah it really is. I appreciated him reaching out to me and asking if I’d consider something like this,” Slugger says. “Thought about it long and hard. Shelly and I talked about it. She felt like it was a nice opportunity and nice of Greg to think about me and reach out. 

“Then I thought, you know what, this is something that I know, and it’s just a new chapter.”

“They’re concentrating on those 10 events on the Asian Tour right now, and that’s pretty much all I know,” Slugger says. “I’ll just wait for them to tell me where they want me to go.”
