BROOKLINE, June 16 — US Golf Association chief executive Mike Whan said Wednesday he could forsee Saudi-backed LIV Golf players having a harder time getting into future US Opens, but nothing has been decided.
“The question was could you envision a day where it would be harder for some folks doing different things to get into a US Open? I could,” Whan said. “Do I know what that day looks like? No, I don’t.” The PGA Tour imposed an indefinite suspension on 17 current or former members who played the LIV Golf opener last week in England, including US stars Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson.
Whan, a member of the world rankings board, said LIV Golf has made no submission seeking such points, but notes how it has evolved over time. “It looks like it’s good for a few folks playing the game, but I’m struggling with how this is good for the game.
