Rory McIlroy has left no room for interpretation. When it comes to the idea of a new start up league that would rival the PGA Tour, the world’s No. 1 ranked golfer says, “I’m out.”
Representatives from the Premier Golf League have been approaching and meeting with high-profile players around the PGA Tour over the past few months. In recent weeks, Tiger Woods confirmed he’d been approached by the PGL and Phil Mickelson played a round of golf in Saudi Arabia with backers from the League.
The PGL is proposing an 18-event schedule of 54-hole tournaments around the world.
