LOS ANGELES – Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., sent letters to both PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan and LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman to request information about last week’s “framework” agreement between the Tour and the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia.
The agreement was announced last Tuesday to create a new for-profit entity that will be funded by the PIF, which also owns 93 percent of LIV Golf. The agreement calls for an end to the litigation between the Tour, LIV Golf and the PIF and creates a path back for players who joined the breakaway circuit to reapply for Tour membership.
