    Amazing that a week after this merger occurred, everyone is acting like all is normal! Sign of the times, human attention span at an all time LOW! Sad!

    PGA: no way we will accept LIV
    Saudi's: here's a few million in bribes
    PGA: uh... so, we were a little hasty.... :)

      That’s it. Feels sad that a bunch of people had critizized LIV, but now that PGA gave the green light, now its ok.
      Money talks, simple as that

    The U.S. Open is not part of the PGA Tour. It is run by the USGA.

    Good explanation, it confirms what I have thought, and my choice to spend my interests in a different sport as a viewer and consumer

    The LPGA found a way to work with the PIF in the Aramco Team Series offering Rolex World Ranking points and Solheim Cup points to the individual players without forcing the ladies to choose between which tour they were going to play...........Just sayin, it's time for all of the boys to grow up and end the pissing contest, it's ruining your sport!!!
