Rory McIlroy has ‘changed his tune’ and now believes that there should be no penalty for LIV rebels who want to return to play on traditional golf tours.

After taking an initial hardline stance against the LIV Golf Series, McIlroy said: ‘I’ve come to the realisation I’m not here to change people’s minds, I’m here to just try, especially when I was at the board level, trying to give them the full picture of where things are at and hopefully where things are going to go.

They can do with that information what they want. But at the end of the day I think I’m done with trying to change people’s minds and trying to get them to see things a certain way.’

A deal between the PGA Tour, DP World Tour, Saudi’s Public Investment Fund and Fenway Sports Group is currently in the works, of which McIlroy was very supportive. ‘The sooner that we can all get back together and start to play and start to have the strongest fields possible I think is great for golf,’ he said.

You know I’ve said this before but I’ve come to the realization is I I’m I’m not here to change people’s minds I’m here to just try to especially when I was at the board level trying to give them the full picture of where things are at and

And hopefully where things are going to go um they can do with that information what they want but at the end of the day uh you know I think I’m done with trying to change people’s minds and trying to get them to see things a certain way or

Try to see things through my LS because that’s ultimately not the way the world works I think life is about choices guys made choices to go and play Live guys made choices to stay here and you know you if people still have eligibility on this tour and they want

To come back and play or you want to try to do something let them come back I mean I don’t I don’t think I think it’s hard to punish people um I don’t think there should be a punishment for I’m obviously I’ve changed my tune

On that because I see where golf is and I see that having a diminished PJ T and having a diminished Liv t or anything else is is bad for both parties be much better being together and moving forward together for the good of the game um and

That’s that’s my that’s my opinion of it so you know the to me the faster that we can all get back together and start to play and you know start to have you know the strongest feels possible I think is great for golf
