Andrew 'Beef' Johnston has admitted he would "consider" a lucrative offer from the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Series, but says it would be a "very difficult" decision.
Johnston is currently out of action with a thumb injury and has not played since the Portugal Masters in November 2021. "From my perspective, I've got an injury now and I've been out for a year," he told the Stirkers and Radar Podcast.
"If you get offered £10m, how do you turn that down? I would have to seriously think about it because that changes my life and sets me up for the future."
However, Johnston wants to continue playing majors and would be reluctant to give up those 'amazing experiences'. He continued: "It comes down to your values and why you're playing golf.
"You'd have to seriously consider it [but] I'm not saying I would go. In other worlds, how would you feel if someone came along and offered you X amount to do the same job.
"You'd have to consider it, right? Financially it's great, but that's the only reason you're going.
"When it comes down to your values and why you play golf, that's where it gets very difficult for someone like me, because you go, 'Hang on, I'll never play another major again'. If you can't play the majors and the big tournaments with all the history, people are going to miss that.
"That's another question that goes through your head. The experiences that I've had at some of the majors have been amazing.
"When you go and tee up at The Open or in the US, they are incredible and are memories that last forever. If I'm fit and healthy for the next 10 years, I'd be playing majors, Ryder Cups hopefully, because you cannot buy that experience."
