Rory McIlroy has admitted he feels like a “sacrificial lamb” after the PGA Tour struck a deal with the Saudi Public Investment Fund.
And the four-time Major winner insisted he still “hates” LIV Golf. But the Ulsterman has given his grudging approval to the Saudi takeover of world golf by admitting: “At the end of the day, money talks." The bombshell news of a deal between the PGA Tour, DP World Tour and the PIF stunned golf on Tuesday.
The four-time Major winner has been a vocal critic of the breakaway league which started in Hertfordshire a year ago.
And speaking before his defence of the RBS Canadian Open, McIlroy said: “It is hard for me not to feel like a sacrificial lamb. I have put myself out there. I can see that this is better for golf. As an individual, there are going to be conversations.”
