American politicians have hit out at the PGA Tour deal with the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund (PIF), with one saying they are “sickened” and others labelling it as a “sellout” and a blatant attempt to “sportswash” by the Saudis.
The US Justice Department is already reportedly looking into the proposed deal, in the context of the antitrust lawsuits filed by both parties before PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan and PIF boss Yasir Al-Rumayyan joined forces.
