Tiger Woods is set to meet with some of the best golfers in the world as he attempts to stop defections from the PGA Tour to the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Series
said earlier this monthWoods himself has voiced his objection to players joining the LIV Series. “I disagree with it,” Woods said in July. “I think that what they’ve done is they’ve turned their back on what has allowed them to get to this position.”The LIV Series is not yet recognized by the Official World“Who knows what’s going to happen in the near future with world-ranking points, the criteria for entering major championships,” Woods said.
“Some of these players may not ever get a chance to play in major championships. That is a possibility. We don’t know that for sure yet. It’s up to all the major championship bodies to make that determination. But that is a possibility, that some players will never, ever get a chance to play in a major championship, never get a chance to experience this right here, walk down the fairways at Augusta National. That, to me, I just don’t understand it.
Woods is not the only prominent golfer to speak out against the LIV Series. Rory McIlroy has regularly voiced his displeasure about LIV players attempting to compete on the PGA Tour. “I don’t begrudge anyone for going over to play LIV or taking guaranteed money,” McIlroy said last week. “If that’s your prerogative and what you want to do, totally fine.
“I think where the resentment comes from, from the membership of this tour, is the fact that they want to try to get back in here with no consequences. Anyone that’s read the PGA Tour handbook or abided by the rules and regulations, that would feel very unfair to them.”
