PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — Tiger Woods made no secret of his disdain for LIV Golf in its early days. He questioned the format, the access to major championships, the perceived lack of incentive for players who were getting millions in upfront money and playing for large purses without a cut.
As he morphed into a role on the PGA Tour Policy Board, Woods has been viewed as an impediment to peace, one who would take a hard line in negotiations with the Public Investment Fund and perhaps thwart pathways back—when appropriate—to the PGA Tour for LIV golfers.
