From jonmccarthySUN: Did Canadian golfer see the PGA Tour-LIV Golf merger coming a month ago?

“I don’t know the inner workings, year to year, of the Tour, trying to run events and that. But, like we discussed, from an outsider’s perspective, pumping a bunch of money in that maybe wasn’t there to begin with, is it sustainable?” Hadwin said. “That’s kind of what we talked about at the PGA .

“I am an outsider deducing that it wasn’t. I’m an outsider saying that between the PIF and the way that LIV was running, they might have been hemorrhaging too much cash … Clearly there was a lot of things going on behind the scenes that nobody was aware of that between the two entities they decided that it was best moving forward if they got together.”Article content

At Oak Hill during the season’s second major, Hadwin was one of the few golfers to offer an opinion on battle between LIV Golf and the PGA Tour and perhaps the only one to question the viability of the PGA Tour’s big money elevated events. “I don’t know whether either model is sustainable or not,” he said at the time. “I hesitate to say that LIV’s model won’t work simply because we just don’t know yet. I think that our tour was progressing very strong financially and getting stronger, but I do wonder what trying to hold sponsors over the coals to get an extra 50% from them will do in the long term for us.

“I do think golf is a game that’s in demand still and people want to be associated with, so we’ll see. I’m an interested spectator at this point to see what the future holds. The tour had to do what it did in the short term, but what does that look like five to seven years? I guess we’ll find out.”
