DORAL, Fla. — The PGA Tour has declined the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund’s request to assure it that the LIV Golf League could exist in its current form, with governor Yasir Al-Rumayyan also getting a seat on the Tour’s Policy Board, leaving the two sides far apart in their efforts to reunify men’s professional golf.
The Guardian newspaper reported that the PGA Tour replied to the PIF on Monday and deemed such an arrangement unacceptable but still wanting to reach agreement on a deal that would see the PIF invest more than $1 billion into PGA Tour Enterprises.
