Rory McIlroy believes the shock merger between the PGA Tour, DP World Tour and LIV Golf will 'ultimately be good for the game of professional golf', but admits he has mixed emotions over it.
The world number three, one of the most vocal critics of the LIV Tour, broke his silence on the merger in Toronto on Wednesday afternoon for this first time since it was announced on Tuesday.
“It was a surprise, I knew there had been discussions going on in the background but I didn’t expect it to happen as quickly as it did,” McIlroy said in a press conference ahead of the RBC Canadian Open.
