Jay Monahan’s Career in Jeopardy? Pro Golfer’s Blatant Confession Unfolds the Dark Future the Tour Commissioner Holds

Jay Monahan might get fired once the PGA Tour-PIF merger gets finalized. That is dependent on how many players may speak against him in the coming days, as the self-imposed deadline got extended and the new one has not been disclosed.

Initially, the PGA Tour pros were upset with the sudden merger announcement, but for the 2023 season, no progress was made, though Monahan had successfully sent memos to the players. As this pro confesses that the memos are mostly “fluff,” he showcases his displeasure with Monahan’s way of tackling things.

With Jay Monahan sending useless emails, frustration seems to grow among PGAT pros.

The most anticipated merger in the golf world has been delayed, and, as reported before, it may get finalized before the 2024 Masters. While it does, it seems the two-time major champion is fed up with the delay and actions of Jay Monahan. In the time frame from June to December, there have been memo after memo sent to the pros.

Collin Morikawa said that amidst the chaos and ton of information, he tries to be updated about the deal. Although he wishes that “everything comes together” and the pros may start playing again, But he also hinted at the troubles that the pros have been facing lately because of the merger. Morikawa shared that all the emails that have been sent in the near past have been “fluff,” and he finds “no point in reading them.”

Furthermore, the 6x PGA Tour winner suggested the only solution to the LIV Golf-PGA Tour fiasco is that “deals need to be made” and the players go “back to playing golf.” Morikawa also admitted missing playing with former PGAT pros, which has made the majors more fun as all are together to play.

Morikawa explained that when he debuted, it was “normal” for golfers to play under one league, and he never expected things would turn out any different. Although he later clarified that it doesn’t take anything away from the PGA Tour or the field he is participating in, Morikawa only misses playing with the “great players” from “other parts of the world.”

Morikawa’s confession hints at the disappointment that he has been facing with the leadership of the PGA Tour. With his remarks against useless emails and memos, Morikawa somewhat hinted that he is not elated about how the Tour Commissioner has been handling things. His honest words hinted at the dark truth of just paperwork, which has probably been the major reason behind the delay. However, Collin Morikawa is not the only pro who has expressed his displeasure with Monahan and his poor management.

The PGA Tour pro has had enough of Jay Monahan and his ways

Although Tiger Woods has instilled his faith in Jay Monahan’s plans and has shown his support for his actions and plans, not all on the PGA Tour may agree with him. For instance, Viktor Hovland revealed the harsh reality of Monahan’s management. He disclosed that the PGA Tour management has “done a bad job,” and they “almost see the players as labor and not as members.” The harsh reality and the direct criticism were done after he was asked about Jon Rahm‘s departure from the Tour while denying his LIV Golf rumors.

Moreover, the players’ disgruntlement with the leadership could be foreseen when they signed an anonymous petition for an emergency special meeting with the leadership, where the fourth point of discussion was “PGA Tour leadership.” With the merger getting delayed even after being called the “firm target” by Monahan, the players are getting impatient as to what the future holds. If things continue to move as seen, Monahan’s PGAT position may be threatened as and when the PGA Tour-PIF merger takes place.
