In a historic move, the PGA Tour has agreed to merge with LIV Golf, a rival league that launched earlier this year. The merger will create a new global tour that will feature some of the world's top golfers and bring together two of the biggest names in the sport. This announcement comes as a surprise to many, as the PGA Tour had previously expressed concern over the involvement of Saudi Arabia in the sport.
The new tour will be called the PGA Tour International and will feature events around the world, including in Saudi Arabia. According to reports, the deal is worth billions of dollars and will see the creation of a new company that will manage both tours. The merger will also provide opportunities for young players from around the world to compete at the highest level and potentially earn millions of dollars in prize money.
While there has been some criticism of the decision to merge with a Saudi-backed league, many are hailing it as a positive step forward for the sport. With both leagues now working together, golf is set to become even more popular on a global scale. Fans can expect to see some exciting new events and fierce competition between the best players in the world. The merger between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf is set to take effect in 2024 and promises to be a game-changer for golf enthusiasts everywhere.
