Paul McGinley has revealed he is 'hurt' by the criticism directed at the DP World Tour, since forming a strategic alliance with the PGA Tour. The alliance was further strengthened earlier this year, with more events co-sanctioned and prize money increased.
The alliance however has received backlash, with some seeing the move as a way of the PGA Tour strengthening their defence against the threat of LIV Golf, whilst the DP World Tour receive the raw end of the deal. McGinley however is fed up of these accusations.
As a result, the former European Ryder Cup captain and Tour board member has hit back at the critics and believes the strength and power of the PGA Tour is a given due to the size of the American market in the sport.
