I think it’s what everyone wants

Although he is obviously not a huge fan of LIV Golf and what they are currently doing, Rory McIlroy has nothing against the partnership between LIV Golf and the PGA Tour. We had an example of such partnerships years ago. It seems that both sides, especially LIV Golf, want to dominate the golf scene, and that is what spoils the whole image of this sport.

“A bunch of tours have coexisted over the last I don’t know how many years,” McIlroy said, as quoted by mirror. “You’ve had the PGA Tour, the European Tour, the Asian Tour, the Sunshine – there’s a million different golf tours that have all been able to coexist in some way.

There’s levels to it, right, and everyone is trying to make it to the top level of professional golf, which is the PGA Tour. Look, the PGA Tour are going to do what they’re going to do. LIV are going to do what they’re going to do.

I think at this point, Jay (Monahan) said it best, the PGA Tour are just trying to control what they can control and try to put forward the best product possible for people to tune into, for sponsors to get excited about, for TV to get excited about, and for the players to get excited about.”

PGA Tour changes

The PGA Tour will make big changes in the coming period, all with the aim of improving its status on the golf scene. One of the changes will be more frequent matches of top stars. “I think having the top players in the world playing together more often and competing against each other more … I think it’s what everyone wants.

It’s what the players want. It’s what the fans want, most importantly. And I think once we solve for that, a lot of the rest of the stuff sort of takes care of itself”.
