Rory McIlroy’s Leadership On The PGA TOUR Continues

Rory McIlroy continues to speak out against the LIV Golf Tour. The golf star has been one of the most outspoken PGA Tour golf players since the LIV Golf Tour was discovered a year ago by a long-time retired professional golf player Greg Norman.

It does not look like McIlroy will be joining the LIV tour after two recent strong finishes in winning the RBC Canadian Open and finishing fifth at the U.S open.

In an interview with CBS sports, McIlroy did not hold back on what should happen with the LIV Tour moving forward: “There is no room in the golf world for LIV Golf,” and he disagrees with what is recently happening. “If LIV Golf went away, I’d be super happy”, the second-ranked player in the world stated.

Despite the many controversies surrounding LIV golf, many players have resigned from the PGA tour to join LIV Golf.

LIV Golf provides more players to spend time with loved ones, a more balanced golf schedule, and offers more upfront money than the PGA tour does. On the other hand, Saudi Arabia’s government has been accused of sports washing due to many human rights violations after spending a billion dollars to prove its reputation

Commissioner Jay Monahan has suspended PGA tour members who have already committed to leaving the PGA tour from participating in any more PGA tour events.

Will more players continue to follow the leadership behind golf star Rory McIlroy? Will they continue to stay committed to building a legacy behind the greats of Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, and Gary Player?

Is it just for the money, or is it more about staying true to your roots as a golf professional? It’s up to the golf players’ decision on what’s best for their golf career.
