AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Eight-time major championship winner Tom Watson doesn't believe the PGA Tour and LIV Golf will be able to reunify men's professional golf anytime soon.
Watson, who won the Masters in 1977 and 1981, said there are too many obstacles for the PGA Tour to reach a deal with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, which has financed the rival LIV Golf League since its inception in 2022.
The PGA Tour, DP World Tour and the PIF signed a framework agreement to form an alliance in June 2023, but the sides have been unable to hammer out a deal -- even after a recent four-hour meeting at the White House.
