Legendary golf coach and Sky Sports pundit Butch Harmon believes LIV Golf may never have been formed if the PGA Tour had introduced its elevated changes sooner. Since its inception last summer, LIV has sent shockwaves across the world of professional golf.
The Saudi-backed series has faced plenty of criticism, and its biggest opposer has come in the form of golf's leading circuit the PGA Tour. Since rumours of a new league began over two years ago, the PGA Tour were quick to play down the idea.
And despite the fact LIV is now well up and running - and a real thorn in the side of the American-based circuit - the stance of Jay Monahan and co is no different.
