The Saudi-backed LIV Golf Invitational Series has drawn some big names, including Dustin Johnson, Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau and Sergio Garcia. Don’t expect Rory McIlroy, the PGA Tour’s No. 8-ranked player and a four-time major winner, to join them anytime soon.
Ahead of this weekend’s Canadian Open, McIlroy made his thoughts on the LIV tour very clear.
“I was speaking to a few people yesterday, and one of the comments was, ‘Any decision you make in your life purely for money doesn’t usually end up going the right way,’” he told reporters. “Obviously money is a deciding factor in a lot of things in this world, but if it’s purely for money it never seems to go the way you want it to.”
