DJ goes bang. When will the trickle become a flow? When will the other Tours decide that they will have to speak to this new interloper?

It will be interesting what the PGA will do as far as sanctions.
The only major they control is the PGA championship, the other three are not run by them. DJ and Na resigned their membership which afaik means if they want it back it means starting back on the lesser tours and q schools if LIV goes bang.
Mickleson is letting the PGA push him rather than resign.

Apparently the thinking behind resigning is that they can't therefore be sanctioned, which may have included some way of preventing them playing in the majors. Now, the ball is entirely in the court of each major.

Also they get to keep their pension and other retirement benefits.

Particularly so if you have no morals or ethics.

It's quickly becoming a game of who can come up with the best excuse/reason.

McDowell feels golf is a force of good therefore he is proud to do his bit in getting the Saudis to where they want to be, yes Graeme.
