Phil Mickelson is among a group of players who have removed themselves from the LIV Golf lawsuit against the PGA Tour and its suspension of players who have participated in the breakaway Saudi-backed tour.
The six-time major winner is joined by Ian Poulter, Talor Gooch and Hudson Swafford in dropping out of the lawsuit. The players filed the voluntary dismissal of their claim against the PGA Tour on Tuesday in the US District Court. Of the original 11 players who filed the lawsuit against the PGA Tour, it leaves just LIV Golf itself, Bryson DeChambeau, Matt Jones and Peter Uihlein as plaintiffs. Abraham Ancer, Carlos Ortiz, Pat Perez and Jason Kokrak had already removed their names.
” The lawsuit was dealt a blow in August when it had a request for a temporary restraining order to play in the FedEx Cup playoffs denied by a judge. PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan announced in June that golfers playing in the controversial breakaway series were suspended and would no longer be eligible to participate in PGA Tour tournaments.
