San Francisco officials are unsure how the PGA Tour's controversial merger with the Saudi-backed LIV Golf will impact The City-owned TPC Harding Park.

The PGA-owned Tournament Players Club Network runs Harding Park, which hosted the 2020 PGA Championship. What Tuesday's merger means for that tournament coming back to The City, or Harding Park's relationship with the tour moving forward, is unclear.

Much of the blowback centered on Saudi Arabia's human rights record.
