The merger will create a commercial operation designed to unify professional golf around the world

The most disruptive year in golf ended Tuesday when the PGA Tour and European tour agreed to a merger with Saudi Arabia’s golf interests, creating a commercial operation designed to unify professional golf around the world.

Still to be determined is how players like Brooks Koepka and Dustin Johnson, who defected to Saudi-funded LIV Golf for nine-figure bonuses, can rejoin the PGA Tour after this year. The agreement combines the Public Investment Fund’s golf-related commercial businesses and rights – including LIV Golf – with those of the PGA and European tours. The new entity has not been named.
