Northern Irishman deserved better treatment from PGA Tour but has a tendency to prevail against a backdrop of tumult
in October. McIlroy did not believe Saudi intentions in golf were bad but that they had been “misguided” in how to spend vast swathes of money; namely on the rebel LIV circuit.
As the PGA Tour’s most prominent voice in the locker room, McIlroy went above and beyond in public and in private to keep players within the traditional model as LIV offers hovered. Little did McIlroy know that, as he tried to compute desperate disappointment after the Masters in April, the PGA Tour’s commissioner, Jay Monahan, was breaking bread with the very people he had not only resisted for so long but encouraged the Northern Irishman to do on his behalf.
Those who spurned LIV’s advances will be squealing or, more accurately, will want to be compensated for supposed loyalty now it transpires there would have been a route back to the PGA Tour in any case. “All I’ve tried to do is protect what the PGA Tour is and what the PGA Tour stands for,” said McIlroy. “And I think it will continue to do that.” The PGA Tour had a duty to be more protective of McIlroy, including by way of Monahan speaking routinely on his own behalf, long ago.
