Trump Backs Return of LIV Golf Players to PGA Tour After Saudi Funding Withdrawal

Donald Trump has expressed support for LIV Golf players returning to the PGA Tour following the league's announcement that Saudi Public Investment Fund funding is being withdrawn. Speaking at the Oval Office, Trump said he wants to see top golfers competing against each other, naming Rory McIlroy, Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm and Scottie Scheffler. LIV Golf has postponed its June tournament in New Orleans, with its next event scheduled for May 7-10 at Trump National in suburban Washington. PGA Tour loyalists including Brian Harman said returning LIV players should face consequences, while Jordan Spieth said he was glad not to be involved in decisions about their return.
