Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy are set to team up to spearhead a new PGA Tour ‘stadium’ competition amid the body’s battle against LIV Golf.
The lucrative LIV Golf series is funded by Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund and it has divided golf, leaving the PGA and DP World Tours fractured after the new series poached some of the sports biggest names. Several of the world’s most prominent players have decided to switch to LIV Golf, including the likes of Phil Mickelson, Brooks Koepka, and Dustin Johnson.
Woods and McIlroy have been two of the biggest supporters of the PGA Tour as the traditional tour has been divided by the controversial new Saudi-backed LIV Golf series. The duo have seemingly taken it upon themselves to lead the retaliation against the breakaway tour.
