Major champions Rory McIlroy and Lucas Glover are afraid of the future of the PGA Tour after Jimmy Dunne resigned from his position on the tour's Policy Board.
Earlier this week, Jimmy Dunne resigned from his role on the PGA Policy Board, just under one year after he helped negotiate with the Public Investment Fund alongside Jay Monahan and chairman Ed Herlihy. Dunne, vice chair and senior managing principal at Piper Sandler, wrote in his resignation letter that 'no meaningful progress has been made towards a transaction with PIF' and that 'my vote and my role is utterly superfluous.
It’s really disappointing and I think the PGA Tour is worse off because of it,' he told reporters on Wednesday at Valhalla on the eve of the PGA Championship. McIlroy added that he, too, felt that no progress has been made with the PIF and LIV Golf, calling it 'concerning.' But that was a light reaction compared to 2009 U.S. Open winner Lucas Glover. With Dunne's resignation, there are now six players on the board as opposed to four independent directors.
