The PGA Tour is being investigated over 'anti-competitive behaviour’ towards the LIV Golf Series by the Department of Justice (DOJ). Players’ agents have been contacted by the DOJ’s antitrust division in regard to the Tour’s actions against LIV.
The PGA Tour’s battle with the new Saudi-backed series has sent shockwaves around the world of golf, with a civil war breaking out within the sport. The LIV Series has looked to lure a number of the world’s best players to join their mega-money circuit.
And they have been successful, with the likes of Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau, Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson all choosing to leave the PGA Tour to sign up.
