Bryson DeChambeau, the 2020 U.S. Open champion who was one of the first big names to sign up for LIV Golf, says he feels bad for the players who stayed loyal to the PGA Tour.

The PGA Tour, DP World Tour and LIV Golf League ended their bitter two-year dispute and announced an agreement Tuesday to form one unified commercial entity. «I do feel bad for the PGA Tour players because they were told one thing and something else happened, and our side, we were told one thing and it's come to fruition,» DeChambeau told CNN. «It does stink a little bit from my perspective that the PGA Tour players are not necessarily winning.

I hope they can find a way to make sure that they are valued in the same way that we are over at LIV. I think that'll happen.

It's just going to take some time.» The shockwaves from the deal are set to reverberate for a while. PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan faced calls to resign at a meeting with players at the Canadian Open in Toronto.
