Saudi Arabia's breakaway golf competition has succeeded in luring away some of the PGA Tour 's elite, but Graeme McDowell believes the rivals can co-exist peacefully.
The 2010 U.S. Open champion was named as one of 42 professionals set to play in the inaugural LIV Invitational Series event in Hertfordshire starting June 9. McDowell, 42, conceded it's "a little scary" risking a ban from the PGA schedule, a punishment he does not believe is warranted.
The PGA has confirmed players who feature in the Saudi Golf League's London event will be sanctioned. Still, that wasn't enough to deter the likes of Dustin Johnson, Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood and Ian Poulter from signing up to take their shot at the $25million (£20m) prize purse.
