Adrian Meronk is one of the newest members of LIV Golf. The Polish golfer joined the Saudi Circuit earlier this year and made his debut at the third season’s opening event at Mayakoba. He has showcased a decent performance on the LIV Golf circuit thus far.
Recently, Adrian Meronk was featured in the latest episode of the Fairway To Heaven podcast, hosted by Jerry Foltz and Su-Ann Heng. He opened up about his experience on LIV Golf, expressing his enjoyment of playing and describing it as an “elevated college experience.”
Speaking about his LIV Golf experience, Meronk said:
“I’ve been really enjoying it. Obviously, it took me two events to get used to it. But it feels like an elevated college experience. The team plays individually as a team, playing rounds with practice rounds with the teammates and going out for dinner with teammates.” (26:43- 27:05)
Meronk also spoke about his time playing on the Challenge Tour, the European Tour, and the PGA Tour. He revealed the difficulty of getting familiar with people across different series but was happy playing on LIV.
“Me being from Poland, and the only one from Poland on tour, so when I got to Challenge Tour, I was kind of lonely cause they had French guys, German guys, and English guys all together. I didn’t have anyone same when on European tour.
“It always took me some time to get to know people and then spend some time with them. So I’ve always been kind of lonely like traveling and eating dinners and it was probably going to happen the same on PGA as well. So I was like, I don’t want to really go there, to be honest, so when I got an offer from LIV, I was quite excited,” he added. (27:05-27:40)
