What the… my son just texted me the new about LIV and PGA Tour. It will be interesting to see how this pans out. -

It's really a surprise, I thought the whole LIV story would have ended with: - world goes in a recession in 6-12 months - oil goes down to 20$ and the Saudi have to cut on the Sport washing extravaganza - LIV shuts down and the prodigal sons come back to PGA -

I don't watch much professional golf anymore anyways, but if this is what it looks like, I'll probably just watch the major tournaments from now on. -

This is honestly so comical it feels a little bit like the plot from a bad movie. The PGA Tour has spent the last 2 years railing on about how accepting Saudi money is evil and makes you complicit, while defending themselves in court against anti-trust litigation as not being a monopoly because other large organizations like the Euro Tour exist. Naturally, they chose the best possible way to settle anti-trust litigation - just invite the opposing party to merge into a single monopoly with the Euro Tour that you were previously insisting was and would remain a completely independent organization from yourself. Bonus point for the merger creating a single for-profit company when the PGA Tour had previously always been a non-profit organization. Just goes to show that the PGA Tour never cared about the source of the money, they only ever cared that it didn't filter through their pockets first before reaching any players and venues. -

To be fair, I sincerely doubt that this is a unilateral decision by one individual. But I do agree, its a complete reversal from the "sportswashing" standpoint, it shows that money really does matter more than principles in many conflicts.
