No Celebration of Champions invite for Greg Norman 

NOT ON THE LIST: While other former champions will take part in a four-hole challenge on the Old Course on Monday, Norman's potential presence has clearly been viewed as an unwelcome distraction.

The R&A has confirmed that it chose not to invite Greg Norman to compete in the Celebration of Champions or attend the Champions' Dinner ahead of the 150th Open at St Andrews.

Norman won the Open in 1986 and 1993 but is now the CEO of LIV Golf, the Saudi-backed circuit which has caused a rift in the men's professional game after enticing players to compete in their £20million, 48-man, 54-hole events.
