LIV Golfers Dealt Brutal Blow by PGA Tour Amid Uncertain Future
LIV golfers were dealt a brutal blow by the PGA Tour this week as the league enters an uncertain future with funding concerns.
PGA Tour CEO Brandon Rolapp announced that the organization has no current plans to revive the Returning Member Program, which would have allowed LIV Golfers such as Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, and Cameron Smith to return to the PGA Tour. This decision was made clear during a news conference ahead of the Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club.
Rolapp emphasized that the main priority for the tour is to have the best golfers competing week in and week out, and any potential returnees would have to face penalties. Despite leaving the door slightly open for a possible return, it appears that Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, and others like Tyrrell Hatton are unlikely to be back on the PGA Tour next season.
