The faux moral outrage from the PGA, which allowed Saudi Aramco to be the title sponsor of the LPGA was always really about power and money. Played on peoples' sympathies. Doubtful that the LIV guys will have to pay a fine to rejoin tour, tho I'm sure PGA will try and make them
I'm expecting all the golfers that protested against LIV and criticized others to quit PGA completely. When you want to morally grandstand, you gotta stick by your word.
That’s the ultimate slap in the face for the guys that stood for the PGA tour. They were the faces in the press. They were the ones out there having to answer the questions and getting blasted from other sides! For the Tour to do this without any notification to those players is disputable. Hey you guys go fight our battle while we back room negotiate against what you’re fighting for. REAL CLASSY PGA!
They should fine every player $100 million that took the money and put that into the retirement fund. This is complete BS. As much as I want to see those guys back on the tour, that sucks for everyone who stayed
Imagine if you turned down $100 million from LIV about 3 years ago, and now this happens behind your back. Jay Monohan has to go! If I was a PGA Tour player I would rally everyone else to insist his punk ass is thrown out.

Poor Rory and Tiger… It's just such a middle finger to all the PGA Tour pros who stayed. LIV guys looking super big-brained now.
Why would liv players have to pay a fine?
Pga tour just keeps shooting itself in the foot
Jay absolutely screwed those who were “loyal” for more money and power. He sold players out…no longer player ran org…product will become crap.
Right on
All that crying rory did for nothing. He must be angry! Lol

It’s player run and they can boycott and vote to stop the merger, it would easily win in court
WTF
Guy can’t make a video or tweet without mentioning he talked to players. He’s so cringe it hurts
Class action lawsuit against the PGA Tour incoming

I just unsubscribed to PGA
Let’s go LIV!!
There wont be any fine…this is a new entity that has no grounds to levy punishments doled out from legacy organizations
I’m never watching another PGA tour event again. F… those guys who left. It was ours now it’s theirs.

how could they fine the players coming back for doing business with a tour that they just did business with?

It's a betrayal and a disgrace, so much for player led tour
I care more about my rounds with the guys than I do about LIV/PGA after this dumpster fire
Theoretically, the PGA Tour is a "member run organization." Jay Monahan blew that concept all to blazes.
Did the LIV guys get their contract money? Maybe they went there for the money and then didn't get paid out?
