Trump, PGA Tour, LIV Golf Leaders Meet for Reunification Talks in D.C.

Donald Trump's involvement in peace negotiations between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf is intensifying, with a key meeting scheduled at the White House that includes golf figures such as Tiger Woods, PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan, and Yasir Al-Rumayyan from Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. Discussions have been ongoing for nearly two years, with a framework agreement established in June 2023, yet the two tours remain divided. Woods expressed optimism that an agreement could be reached soon, emphasizing the desire for top players to compete together. Trump's influence is considered significant, particularly regarding potential approval from the Department of Justice, which had previously raised concerns under the Biden administration. The meeting aims to clarify roles within the sport and explore a unified schedule, which could revitalize professional golf. Both Monahan and Woods have indicated that the talks are progressing positively, with hopes for a resolution in the near future.
