Two PGA Tour golf officials will testify as witnesses in front of a Senate subcommittee hearing on the LIV Golf merger next week, the committee's leaders announced Monday.

The Senate Homeland Security Committee’s Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations will hear testimony from PGA Tour COO Ron Price and board member Jimmy Dunne on July 11, subcommittee Chairman Richard Blumenthal and ranking member Sen. Ron Johnson said in a joint statement.

The subcommittee also sought testimony from LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman, PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan, and the Saudi investment fund’s governor, Yasir Al Rumayyan but was told Norman and Rumayyan were unable to testify next week because of scheduling conflicts. “Both Governor al-Rumayyan and Mr. Norman have valuable information to share about the operations of the Public Investment Fund, the future of LIV Golf, and Saudi Arabia’s plans to invest in golf and other sports. Consistent with our subcommittee’s practice, we look forward to working with both witnesses to find a mutually agreeable date for them to appear in the very near future.”
