British golf star claims PGA Tour changes could boost LIV's hopes of luring more players

Amid the ongoing threat posed by the LIV Golf series, who continue to raid the status quo by attempting to sign players for extortionate sums, the PGA have introduced a number of no-cut, limited-field events to its 2024 schedule. The changes mirror the format of the Saudi-backed series, who responded by tweeting "imitation is the greatest form of flattery" from its official Twitter account.

The changes have been mocked by LIV rebels Ian Poulter and Lee Westwood, while Pick Mickleson has also chimed in. And now Pepperell, who plays on the DP World Tour and has been a vociferous critic of the LIV concept, has voiced his discontent.
