A filing last week with the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) by a public relations firm that had been hired by LIV Golf could lead to more scrutiny for the Saudi-backed league.
Gitcho Goodwin, a Boston-based firm, filed a registration statement with FARA last week after “further consideration” that “the Saudi [Public Investment Fund] occasionally oversaw [LIV Golf’s] public relations activities.”
According to the filing, Gitcho Goodwin – which no longer works with LIV Golf, according to the Wall Street Journal – drafted press releases and marketing brochures for LIV Golf and also provided media training for players.
