SAN DIEGO — If the PGA Tour is closer to achieving “reunification” of the men’s game as the result of a deal with the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia, Rory McIlroy made clear Wednesday that players are going to have to move on from past rancor.
In a 25-minute interview session with reporters at Torrey Pines, site of this week’s relocated Genesis Invitational, McIlroy also disclosed that he played golf with President Trump last month and believes he is “on our side,” can influence the negotiations because he has “access” to Mohammed bin Salman and that Trump told him he’s not a fan of the LIV Golf format.
