WHOA.
WHOAAAAAAAAAAA!
It’s a wild day in the golf world. Because, seemingly out of nowhere, after months of fighting publicly and in court, the PGA Tour and LIV Golf are … merging.
Along with the DP World Tour, the deal announced on Tuesday sent shockwaves through the golf world, including with players, many of whom didn’t have a clue this was happening.
What does it all mean for them? What does it mean for the future of professional golf? Those questions will be answered down the road. For right now, all we know is there’s an agreement, and all that fighting between players and tours is done.
Here’s the reaction from pros on Twitter:

I’ve grown up being a fan of the 4 Aces. Maybe one day I get to play for them on the PGA Tour!

Very curious how many people knew this deal was happening. About 5-7 people? Player run organization right? 🤷🏻♂️
