A group of PGA Tour stars have risen to the defence of rival player Patrick Cantlay after the 2021 FeEx Cup champion was accused of staging a 'coup' against the Tour.
The suggestion was made by Golfweek in regard to the PGA Tour's decision to sign an agreement with the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia (PIF), which will see them operate in unison with their LIV Golf rivals. According to the report, Cantlay was allegedly rallying he and his fellow players against the Tour's Policy Board in regard to the Saudi deal.
In the aftermath, a number of the American star's fellow competitors have leaped to support him, including PGA Tour Player Advisory chairman Adam Scott.
