LIV merger exposes McIlroy and his PGA peers as pawns in callous corporate game

This, from July last year.

Nobody saw it coming. Not the players, not other executives, not the best-connected journalists. Collin Morikawa tweeted, “I love finding out morning news on Twitter.” LIV CEO Greg Norman was told about it a moment before it was announced on CNBC. Journalist Alan Shipnuck only yesterday tweeted that he had just completed the final draft of his upcoming book about the LIV split.

We also know that the players who signed up from LIV will be given a chance to return to the DP World and PGA Tours, meaning they will be back competing in regular events and will be eligible for future editions of the Ryder Cup. When LIV were enticing many of Monahan’s best players to LIV, he dismissed the Saudis’ claim on the sport on moral grounds.

Monahan wasn’t content to be the sole voice of moral outrage in defending his territory from LIV, and was happy to wheel out his best and brightest to take a righteous stand against the Saudis. It was a classic piece of executive delegation: if you don’t have a backbone, find someone who does.
