DETROIT – Peter Malnati was in a Residence Inn at the Toronto Airport on Tuesday morning, June 6, when his phone rang at 7:36 a.m., informing him of the PGA Tour’s blockbuster agreement with the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund.
Malnati, 36, whose lone win came at the 2016 Sanderson Farms Championship, is in his first year on the PGA Tour policy board. On Tuesday, he and the nine other board members met for approximately eight hours in person. (Lunch was served at noon, there were two five-minute breaks and the meeting wrapped around 8 p.m.)
