They are among 20 of the top 50 players in the world in Saudi Arabia. That leaves Pebble with a weak field. The Saudi players are required to play Pebble in the next few years. For now, Greg Norman has a captive audience in Saudi Arabia to talk about greener pastures of big money and possibly a world tour.
