Senate Subcommittee Sets Tee Time For First Hearing On LIV Golf-PGA Tour Merger

PGA Tour COO Ron Price and board member Jimmy Dunne will testify before the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations on July 11.

The panel will probe the merger deal, reached June 6, citing its impact on the future of the sport as well its implications for Saudi Arabia’s influence in the U.S. LIV, which had lured several of the PGA Tour’s top players to its side as part of the bitter feud with the PGA, is backed by the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund.

In a letter to Monahan last month announcing the Senate probe, Sen. Richard Blumenthal said the PGA’s “sudden and drastic reversal of position concerning LIV Golf raise[s] serious questions regarding the reasons for and terms behind the announced agreement.”
