Tiger Woods is reportedly expected to meet with a group of players – including many of the top 20 players in the world – on Tuesday in order to "rally support" around the PGA Tour as LIV Golf continues to make waves.

The meeting, which was first reported by the Fire Pit Collective, will occur at the BMW Championship in Wilmington, Delaware, where the second FedEx playoff event is scheduled to begin on Thursday.
