The PGA Tour will never boast the world’s top golfers again and its new rival LIV Golf is «here to stay», according to Phil Mickelson.
The six-time major winner is one of many top players to have separated from the PGA Tour and joined its lucrative, Saudi Arabia-backed rival circuit.
Ad “The PGA Tour, for the last 20 or 30 years have had all the best players in the world. That will never be the case again,” Mickelson said after the opening round at the LIV Golf event in Chicago.
