Billy Horschel blasts 'hypocrites' playing LIV golf series, accuses some of 'lying'

Billy Horschel became the latest PGA Tour player to criticize members who have been lured to the Saudi Arabian-financed LIV Golf Invitational Series by lucrative signing bonuses and $25 million purses.

During a news conference ahead of the Scottish Open on Tuesday, Horschel said he didn't have "ill will" toward players who have left, but did take exception to some of their comments about the PGA Tour.

"I've been really frustrated by it because there's a lot of guys that are hypocrites, that aren't telling the truth, that are lying about some things, and I just can't stand to sit here anymore and be diplomatic about it as I have been in the past," Horschel said.
