LIV vs PGA Tour was formed to improve Saudi Arabia’s image as a solid international citizen, but it has completely split the professional golf ranks worldwide. The PGA Tour has had its way with profits generated by its schedule of professional golf tournaments and the golf public’s fascination with the skill level of top-level professional golfers. Sam Snead, Ben Hogan, Byron Nelson, as well as many others grabbed the attention of casual golfers back in the 1930’s and 1940’s.

Jack Nicklaus carried the ball in the 1960’s In 2024 the fireworks between the PGA Tour and the LIV continued to rage with golf fans becoming increasingly unhappy with the greed and ultimate destruction of the professional game.
