Trevor Immelman explains ‘LOL’ response to LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — We’ve all used “LOL” as a response, usually to a funny message online. Normally it’s not literal. I mean, who actually laughs out loud, then says so?

Trevor Immelman, that’s who.

The captain of the International team at the 2022 Presidents Cup couldn’t help but react honestly when Greg Norman, the former leader of the International squad turned CEO and commissioner of LIV Golf, wished Immelman and the worldwide all-stars good luck on Twitter.

I pretty much say it exactly as I’m thinking it,” Immelman said after Friday’s four-ball matches at Quail Hollow Club. “What I said was exactly what I was doing when I read that tweet.
