On the other hand, other fans said that LIV Golf was expected to get everything ready by New Year’s Eve for their next season.

Some even put forward their disappointment about the fact that the PGA Tour didn’t partner up with LIV Golf. Fans were expecting a tie-up between the two leagues before the new season. However, no such step was taken by either of the tours.

While some people doubted the fact that Mito Pereira would agree to join in. Fans thought it would be surprising if he does since there haven’t been any new recruitments lately.
