I note the fact that the question hasn't come from the Leader of the Opposition, who himself is somewhat conflicted by even his own admission I think that his brother is on the US PGA, or connected to the US PGA, which might explain why he has been so ardently opposed to the event which was an unparalleled success.</text>

The government has signed a four-year deal with LIV Golf. There are a range of contractual obligations upon them, and for as long as that tour goes ahead we very much look forward to an event here in Adelaide that we believe can be bigger and better than the huge success that it already was only a few weeks ago.</text>
