If golf fans are upset that the best players in the world do not play the same events such as the players’ championship this week, Scotti Sheffler N ° 1 said they had to turn their anger in the direction of which Sport S ‘is broken. “If the fans are upset, look at these guys that left,” Scheffler said Tuesday. “We toured and we were all together, and those guys that left are not here anymore. At the end of the day, that’s where the splintering comes from.
“As far as our tour goes, like I said, we’re doing our best to create the best product for the fans, and that’s really where we’re at.”
While Scheffler will try to defend his title at the 50th Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass, reigning Masters champion Jon Rahm and other past major champions like Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, Cameron Smith and Bryson DeChambeau aren’t in the field because they’re playing in the rival LIV Golf League.
The PGA Tour’s main event, known as the “fifth major,” doesn’t offer the same depth of field as it once did.
“If guys want to take the money and walk away, that’s their decision,” Scheffler said. “I don’t mean to sit here and tell everyone so that I don’t get hundreds of millions of dollars. If it’s better for their lives, do it. I don’t force everyone to sit here and stay on our tour.
“But in the end, this is the place I want to be, and we continue to develop things we don’t really get excited about what we are and what they are.”
Earlier, at the first press conference on Tuesday after the tour championship in August, at the Atlanta in August, PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monakan said that the district negotiations with public investment in Saudi Arabia were “accelerated”. I mentioned.
The parties are discussing the $ 3 billion investment on the Soblin Social Protection Fund, which has been funded by LIV golf in the past three years. Monahan and his partners in Strategic Sports Group, a consortium of billionaire sports team owners who have already announced they will invest up to $3 billion in the PGA Tour, met with PIF Governor Yasser Al Rumayyan in Saudi Arabia in January.
Monahan said the Tour understands that fans are “tired of hearing about the conflict and the money and who’s going to get what.”
One of the next steps in a potential deal is for Al Rumayyan to meet with the PGA Tour’s player directors on the policy committee, which includes Tiger Woods and Jordan Spieth. The players’ directors also serve on the board of directors of PGA Tour Enterprises, the entity formed by the tour and SSG.
“I think it’s really important that we’re all rowing in the same direction,” said Patrick Cantlay, one of the players’ directors. “With the help of these enterprise PGA tour hints, we think it’s really exciting. Fortunately, we start a new one and start everything together in the right direction.”
In a Monakan’s press conference, the journalist asked if he had a complete support for the Board of Directors when he worked to transfer the agreement with Saudi Arabian strikes. Monahan acknowledged in our council that he had many good energy discussions about his future as a commissioner. “You know, that’s a question you’ll have to ask the players,” Monahan said. “I can’t generalize as far as the players, but obviously with the responsibility that’s been given to me by both boards, I have the support of our board and I’m the person that can move us forward. I know that. I believe it in my heart and I am determined to do just that.”
Xander Schauffele, the world’s sixth-ranked golfer, said he remains skeptical that Monahan is the right man to lead the tour. Schauffele has called for Monahan’s resignation in the past.
“Trust is a very delicate thing, so words are words and in my opinion, he still has a lot of work to do,” Schauffele said. “Some decisions are taken with him so I’m sure he has the backing of the (players) board but personally I think he still has a long way to go.”
