The world of golf has been in a continuous state of flux for quite some time now. What initially started as uncertainties surrounding the rivalry between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf has now converted into uncertainties regarding the future of their pending merger. Amidst all these major changes, the golf world has desperately been waiting to get more of Tiger Woods’ input on the matter. Interestingly, golf sensation Tiger Woods has been actively involved in the matter of the future of golf despite being on a professional hiatus.

Tiger Woods finally speaks up on the burning merger question 

The fifteen-time major winner is not a stranger to spreading his magic at the Hero World Challenge. In fact, the legendary golfer has won the famous challenge five times before. 

This event is close to Woods’ heart for more than one reason. Not only is it being held at the Albany Golf Course he designed, but he is also the tournament host for the said event. Therefore, it makes sense that he made this highly anticipated clarification at a press conference being held shortly before its onset regarding the future of the golf world.
