Rory McIlroy believes a world tour is the "dream scenario" for golf's future as the PGA Tour and LIV Golf continue to negotiate a path forward.In an interview with Golf Digest in Dubai, the world number two spoke of his hope for a global approach which taps into markets such as Australia, South Africa and Japan."Going forward, if everything is on the table, venues have to be a big part of the consideration," he said."We need to make sure the courses are worthy of the players who are going to be competing.
My dream scenario is a world tour, with the proviso that corporate America has to remain a big part of it all. Saudi Arabia, too.
That's just basic economics."But there is an untapped commercial opportunity out there," he continued."Investors always want to make a return on their money.
Revenues at the PGA Tour right now are about $2.3 billion. So how do we get that number up to four or six? To me, it is by looking outward.
