MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The federal judge who denied temporary restraining orders to three LIV Golf players who wanted to come back to the PGA Tour to compete in the FedEx Cup playoffs said the plaintiffs failed to «even show that they have been harmed — let alone irreparably.»
LIV Golf turned its cannons on Tiger Woods, with the Saudi-funded series accusing the 15-time major winner of doing the PGA Tour’s bidding. The first legal salvos between LIV and the PGA Tour took place earlier this week, with Hudson Swafford, Talor Gooch and Matt Jones failing in their bid to have their suspensions overturned in order to be able to play in the FedEx Cup play-offs. Ad The PGA Tour has suspended all players who have taken part in LIV events, and the emergence of LIV has rocked the sport.
Open champion Cameron Smith has said he is motivated by competition as opposed to money. Smith claimed his first professional win in 2017, but this has been his breakthrough year as he followed up victory at the Players Championship with success in the Open at St Andrews. Ad The Australian has the golfing world at his feet, but his future is shrouded in doubt as he has been strongly linked with a move to LIV Golf.
