The rivalry between the PGA tour and LIV golf continues. LIV golf is like a brash newcomer which has acted like a party crasher. Some of the PGA tour’s top players have been lured into LIV with loads of money and perks. In the ongoing bicker between the two, the US-based circuit has banned the participation of the rebel circuit. The latter has filed a complaint alleging antitrust violations on the PGA tour. But this rivalry has not yet disrupted the majors.

As of now the majors have not been affected by the ongoing feud between the PGA tour and LIV golf. After being in dominance, the PGA tour finally has a rival. A rival with pockets deeper than what one could fathom. They are seen as the poachers by those who are loyal to PGA tour.

The feud by many is labeled as an ethical dilemma. Are you going to fall for abundance of cash or reject it due to the funder’s terrible reputation?

Should the eligibility criteria for masters be changed to exclude LIV golf?

The dilemma continues: “If the masters criteria is unchanged, roughly 16 of the 78 players eligible are with LIV“, says Doug Ferguson, an AP golf writer. The LIV players are facing uncertainty over their involvement in the game’s majors and their battle for Official World Golf Rankings continues.

The ball remains in the court of the organizers of golf’s major tournaments. They have the power to ban LIV players from competing in their tournaments. LIV’s inclusion in the four biggest tournaments of golf will determine if it has succeeded or has become a failure.
