coming to the other side of the debate in a moment, we will hear from poulter and westwood now.has just returned from a self imposed for absence from the game after he made controversial comments about the saudi backers of the event, calling them scary. he also had some criticisms of the pga tour, accusing it of obnoxious greed, then he left the public spotlight for several months, going into hiding. in the nick of time, would you believe it, he's appeared in time to play another tournament, he's appeared in time to play anothertournament, but he's appeared in time to play another tournament, but he's netting $200 million is the most effective name, and here's what he had to say along with westwood and poulter. i don't condone human rights violations_ i don't condone human rights violations at all. nobody here does, throughout— violations at all. nobody here does, throughout the world. and i'm certainly— throughout the world. and i'm certainly aware of what has happened with jamaal certainly aware of what has happened withjamaal khashoggi, and it is terrible — withjamaal khashog

of more money has proved persuasive for some — dustinjohnson, lee westwood, sergio garcia, and ian poulter with formula one. $a00 million went for a controlling stake in newcastle football club. and now, over $2 billion will go to golf in the coming years. and the players who take the money know it may affect where they can play — here's ian carter again. pro golfers like to think of themselves as independent contractors, but the reality is that if they are playing on a tour, they have obligations to it. and if they want to play for a rival, well, they have to apply for a waiver. that's exactly what they did when liv golf came calling, and the tours said "no". the tours said "no" — but greg norman has kept making the case. this is a once in a lifetime - opportunity to unlock the potential for the game of golf to truly grow. it's certainly a chance for the players�* bank balances to grow and for saudi arabia to pursue its goals. for golf, more broadly, we'll see. and as the series began, it tweeted... indeed it did. as we see golfers trying to explain where, if at all, they draw the line. i

lifetime member phil mickelson, dustinjohnson and european ryder cup stars like lee westwood, ian poulter didier lallement, says he has sincere regrets over. but he says a tragedy could have happened without the action that was taken by police. the premier league has suspended it's six year tv deal with russian broadcasters match tv. the deal — worth li£3 million — was due to start at the beginning of next season. however — with russia's invasion of ukraine ongoing — the premier league says it feels it has no option but to suspend the contract. it's not clear how long the suspension will run for — or if the deal will be scrapped completely. arsenal forward alexandre lacazette has re—joined lyon on a free transfer — five years after leaving the french side to join the gunners for a then club record $58 million. he scored 5a times in 158 premier league appearances for arsenal and helped the gunners win the 2020 fa cup final. lacazette says a return to lyon was the "obvious" decision — despite the french side's lack of european football next season. he's signed a three—year deal. andy murray

ian poulter has said he will appeal the decision, others have said they are not that bothered that theycompete in the us open. was it literally once they hit their first ball? they would have been looking at the bones and it was on an e—mail that the tournament was under way but only when they saw their e—mails. they knew it was coming. the players, who are getting huge amounts of money for appearing in the first tournament of this saudi arabia—funded series, had just teed off when an email was sent out, suspending them from the pga tour. it announced all of its players, who are competing in this week's event will be suspended, although this won't apply to next week's us open, which is too soon. now in response, the organisers of the breakaway series, hit back, calling the pga tour "vindictive," and saying the ban, "deepens the divide between the tour and its members." six—time major winner phil mickelson is among the biggest names to be affected, but says he'll be playing in the liv golf events for the next few years. i was kind of saying that i didn't feel contractual agreements shoul
