Saudi-backed series and PGA Tour announced shock deal having initially caused rift between golfers

“I mean, look, it’s unfortunate what has happened but that is not something I can speak on because I’m a golfer,” DeChambeau said. “What I can say is that, what they’re trying to do is be better allies, because we are allied with them. I’m not going to get into the politics of it, I’m not specialised in it. But what I can say is they’re trying to do good for the world and showcase themselves in a light that hasn’t been seen in a while. Nobody is perfect but we’re all trying to improve in life.

He added: “As time has gone on, 20 years has passed [since 9/11], and we’re in a place now where it’s time to try to work together to make things better together as a whole… I have a huge amount of respect for [the 9/11 families’] position and what they believe. Nor do I want anything like that to occur again. I think as we move forward from that we have to look towards a pathway to peace. Especially in forgiveness. Especially if we’re trying to mend the world and make it a better place.
