PGA Tour players talk about the LIV series and competition, “Why are you doing this?”

PGA Tour players, talking about the LIV series and the fight, “Why are you doing this?”

(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Dong-chan Kim = The American Professional Golf (PGA) Tour players reacted bitterly to the possibility of organizing a match against the LIV Golf Invitational Series, which is at an angle to the PGA Tour.

Golf Channel, an American golf media, reported on the 21st that “American players who participated in the Presidents Cup did not show much interest in the possibility of a third competition.”

The Presidents Cup is a men’s golf competition between the United States and the International, held in Charlotte, North Carolina, United States, on the 22nd.

Separately, the men’s golf competition between the US and Europe will take place in the Ryder Cup.

Therefore, the “third game” can be a match between the PGA Tour and the LIV series.

The LIV Series, sponsored by the capital of Saudi Arabia, is a league that was founded this year and eliminated key players from the PGA Tour with a huge prize pool.

The PGA Tour prohibits players who have progressed to the LIV Series from participating in tournaments.

In this year’s Presidents Cup, which starts on the 22nd, players who have moved to the LIV series do not appear.

Asked about the possibility of a match against the LIV series, Justin Thomas, who represented the United States at the Presidents Cup, said: “There is no reason to do it.

In this year’s international squad, notable players such as Cameron Smith (Australia), Joaquin Nieman (Chile), Louis Usthizen (South Africa) and Abraham Anser (Mexico) were unable to participate in the Presidents Cup while they moved on to the LIV series.

Billy Horschel (USA) also replied in the negative, saying: “It’s okay to play against the LIV series, but I don’t know what the PGA Tour can achieve.”

“If we win, of course, we win what we win and we only lose,” Horschel said.
