Joaquin Niemann Hopes PGA Tour-LIV Golf Merger Will Allow Select PGA Tour Appearances

LIV Golf star Joaquin Niemann has declared that he is hopeful a merger between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf will allow him to play a select few PGA Tour events each year.Speaking to Fox Sports ahead of his title defence at the Australian Open starting Thursday, the Chilean expressed that he wants the reports that a merger between the two warring factions to be true and change the current landscape in men’s professional golf.

Niemann earned himself an invite to this year’s Masters from Augusta National Golf Club because they were impressed by his efforts to come down under to play, and win, last year’s Australian Open in Sydney. “Playing on LIV Golf and having the DP World Tour around - I played the Rolex series for the first time - was awesome, and if I can play those plus a few other events and the majors, I am happy,” Niemann said.

Niemann is strongly opposed to the men’s professional season expanding beyond its current borders, as he believes that he has landed on the perfect formula in a throwback to days past. “They just want to play on LIV and that’s it, and there’s a few guys who probably just want to play on the PGA Tour and that’s it.
