Players like Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm, who said no to LIV Golf's millions, will reportedly cash in following the PGA Tour merger with the Saudi's Public Investment Fund.
PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan speaks during a news conference before the start of the Travelers Championship at TPC River Highlands June 22, 2022, in Cromwell, Conn.
Those top players turned down millions to sign with LIV Golf, while others like Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson and Phil Mickelson signed on and had been banned from the PGA until the surprise merger. The amount of money the PGA Tour loyalists will receive has yet to be determined, but that part of the argument from the players isn’t being overlooked.
Brooks Koepka catches a ball on the 14th hole during a practice round for the U.S. Open at The Los Angeles Country Club Tuesday, June 13, 2023, in Los Angeles.
