"Nothing like finding out through Twitter that we’re merging with a tour that we said we’d never do that with," he tweeted.Former major champions such as Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson, Sergio Garcia, Graeme McDowell, Martin Kaymer and Louis Oosthuizen jumped at the LIV tour. Five-time majors champ Brooks Koepka broke his four-year drought without a major title after joining LIV.

The PGA Tour said it will establish a process to re-admit golfers who joined LIV following the 2023 season.
