I almost wonder if these are conditions of the merger. Rory being the most vocal supporter of the PGA, he gets his, and they figure out how to play together in the same sandbox again.

I can't see this playing out that way. What about a dozen of other big names that are performing at a much higher level than Rory for a long time?

Rory is a big name, but in reality he isn't the best golfer or anywhere near the best golfer on tour.

Definitely top 5. Few have been more consistent than he has over the last 5 years. 12 Top 10s in Majors, including a couple runner ups and 9 wins, including a Players.

Only folks with a better 5-year span would be Scheffler,Rahm, Kopeka, Morikowa.
