It looks like Phil Mickelson can now say, "I told you so."
The LIV Golf pro presented an interesting dilemma on social media earlier this month in a since-deleted post on X when he questioned what the future of golf might look like if some of the best players in the game weren’t allowed to compete at the majors.

Three-time major winner Padraig Harrington seems to agree in a way.

Following the thrill of last week’s PGA Championship at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, Harrington told Golf Channel on Wednesday that he missed playing with some players that qualified for the major, despite having moved on to the rival, Saudi-backed tour.
"I realized last week, God, we missed Bryson [DeChambeau]. Like Bryson was box office last week and really, really helped that tournament… It was fantastic, interesting, exciting watching."
"Yeah, we do miss those guys," he continued. "As I’ve said before, it’s hard to believe we miss Patrick Reed. That’s just the way it is."
Drawing from his experience playing on the European Tour, Harrington suggested the feelings towards LIV could be similar to what players at the time might have felt about having two "strong" circuits.
