After waging a war in the name of upholding the integrity of golf, the PGA Tour has finally put the vengeance aside. Its association with the LIV Golf Series and the DP Tour has left fans sweating, with many predicting a swift downfall.

However, the first steps to begin the new trident have been taken. Having spent days arguing in the court, a motion to dismiss has been issued to end all antitrust litigation, but with a twist.

Lawsuit concludes between now-partners LIV Golf and the PGA Tour

The latest reports that emerged last night declared an end to the animosity between the LIV Golf Series and the PGA Tour, at least on contractual terms. The two organizations had an ongoing case that was heard at the ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals and multiple U.S. District Courts.

Over the course of the verdict, the PGA Tour managed a small victory in its courtroom trials. Last year, eleven formerly contracted PGA Tour players were left helpless after a court ruled in favor of the American body over a temporary restraining order to contest the 2022 FedEx Cup playoffs.

However, all that is sealed now. While many cases have reopened in the past, any matter whatsoever won’t be heard at the court again. This is due to the addition of prejudice in the motion, which signifies neither the antitrust case nor the PGA Tour’s countersuit can ever be reopened again, even at the behest of a collapse between the two parties.

A timeline of the courtroom events that followed between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf

Ever since its inception, the LIV Golf Series has faced countless criticisms from the PGA Tour quarters. The matter shot up a notch when the defectors sought a trial to help them participate in the season-ending FedEx Cup last year.

Thus began the battle at the courtrooms that engulfed the golf community. The PGA Tour countersued the breakaway league, claiming it lured its players with huge bonuses. Around the same time, the DP Tour and its LIV defectors had courtroom sessions too, which ended up with the judge ruling in favor of the former.

However, all that is in the past now. With zero litigation work remaining, can the once-sworn enemies rekindle to form a part of golf’s new era? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
