Sky's IanKingSky writes that the shock merger with the Saudi backers of breakaway LIV Golf will be aimed at healing the deep rift in the sport, but says it also secures a top seat for the country in the wider professional game

Mr Monahan noted that, while interest in golf globally is at an all-time high, more people now follow professional golf 'off-course' - in other words by watching on television or the internet - than those paying to watch tournaments live 'on-course'.
