June 10, 2022 - أوقفت جولة PGA الأعضاء المتنافسين في سلسلة LIV الدولية للغولف المثيرة للجدل التي تدعمها السعودية - حيث يشتد صراع مرير على السلطة يهز أركان هذه الرياضة.

LIV Golf is a start-up organisation headed by two-time major winner Greg Norman -- funded by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, which provided finance for the recent takeover of Premier League team, Newcastle United.

In March, LIV Golf announced a $250m eight-event invitational series, with a further £1.6bn of funding to expand to a 14-league series by 2024.

Players suspended from PGA Tour:

Sergio Garcia*, Talor Gooch, Branden Grace*, Dustin Johnson*, Matt Jones, Martin Kaymer*, Graeme McDowell*, Phil Mickelson, Kevin Na*, Andy Ogletree, Louis Oosthuizen*, Turk Pettit*, Ian Poulter, Charl Schwartzel*, Hudson Swafford, Peter Uihlein, Lee Westwood.

*Resigned PGA Tour membership
