That was Sen. Richard Blumenthal, a Democrat from Connecticut, addressing the proposed merger between the Saudi-backed LIV Golf and the PGA Tour during a Tuesday Senate subcommittee panel. “If any person had the remotest connection to an attack on our country or the murder of my friends, I am the last guy who would be sitting at a table with them,” Dunne said.

The PGA Tour will have “full decision-making authority with respect to all strategic and operational matters related to competition,” Dunne said. “Sportswashing is a legitimate issue, but no amount of money can wash away the stain of the brutal Khashoggi assassination and other humans rights abuses,” said Sen. Ron Johnson, a Republican from Wisconsin.
