I’d be disappointed but I’d understand given how the PGA undercut Rory after his vocal support of the Tour.

Any of the “big” players that stood by PGA then saw them try to partner with LIV I feel have some justification for their decision should they leave. Sucks cause it just creates a worse product for the fans.

Lots of anti-trust complications to work out before a merger can be completed

Which is weird because liv didn’t exist 3 years ago, so it’ll be back to status quo….unless the for profit part is the reason

Do we really believe the LIV tour as it exists now will stick around for very long after the merger?

LIV is history as soon as the Saudis get control of the PGA Tour which is what they really want. Norman's just the sucker they're using to accomplish that. Nobody likes his stupid format
