the pga tour is moving with a guy like rory mcilroy with a guy like justin thomas, i think what pga touriv money involvement in a nice way. as far as i'm concerned, i think that what tour has done, said we agree, we want the very best players in world playing against each other more frequently. we don't want to be just major championship or be the player as championship, we don't want to be in yo our play-offs, they have elevated some, events and required top players, there will be 20 to play in three additional events on the pga tour that are not elevated purses, they will pay for purses in 2 10 million dollar range. the tour has done a great job, i think they will talk about it no, but no question people said they will go to liv, cameron, just released saying he is leaving, at the same time, one of the bright young stars on the pga sto payin pga tour, cameron young said he is not going anywhere and hideki matsuyama has said, he is not going, he will stay with the pga tour. i think that is probably bigger for the tour than any other person that has said they are not going to the liv . b

so the pga tour has suspended golfers lured to liv golf through significant appearance fees, as well as massive prize funds. the tour has pointed to its own bylaws that ban members from taking part in any other event without the permission of the commissioner. effectively what the tour is doing, banishing tour players if they decide to take part in the liv golf tour. phil mickelson and bryson dechambeau are part of the lawsuit, saying the tour conduct's serves no purpose over other than to harm players and foreclose the first meaningful competitive threat the tour has faced in decades. here's what liv golfers had to say about the lawsuit this past weekend, exclusively to your show. >> i think it's unfortunate that we couldn't bring everybody together. they've separated themselves from us. everybody is against us. they've basically treated us like, you know, the black cats of the world. >> the pga tour is saying anybody who participates in liv will be banned for life from the pga tour. >> it doesn't make sense. >> you're 28. are you worried about that? >> no. it will get figured out, w

as the pga tour set out its strategy to fight for the best players in the world. l tour for the controversial saudi—backed liv series. the pga needed to make a move. so it has turned out its pockets to and prevent any more going the same way. the tour commissioner jay monahan made the announcement today. that the tour�*s top players have committed to play at least 20 events a year. they include the four major championships. the players championship plus 12 what they're calling "elevated" tournaments which include the three fed ex play—off events amongst others each of the tournaments will have an average purse of $20 million. players will then choose a minimum of three other pga tour events to add to their schedules. and the pga tour will also guarantee income of half a million dollars for every player that plays a minimum of 15 tournaments. even if they don't make that in prize money. 0ur our top players are firmly behind the tour. helping us deliver unmatched product to our fans. we will be all but guaranteed to see the best players competing against each other i

i�*ve told people before that if there�*s something i need to say regarding the pga tour or liv, i amouth african went on to win the title after a fourth playoff hole on sunday and she told the bbc that she got a very special text after the win. no, it hasn�*t sunk in, i think. i have been very busy, pretty much a whirlwind, we finished so late on sunday that the ceremony press and we went back on monday morning to meerfield, which is pretty cool once things calm down for some more photos. by do change my travel plans and travel to the states but then we flew back on tuesday. this is, to be called the 2022 women�*s open champion, to be the first female to win at this place we have the history ofjoining them, it is such an honour. he sent me a voice message and it was after the friday and hejust told me, stay calm, stay patient, remember, everyone�*s going to hit a bad shot. keep your head down when you putt and think one. i�*ve had multiples of african men and people from sports inside africa and friends and family back in on that voice supported me i�*ve had multiples of african men
