As intrigue continues over the future of top-level professional golf, here's a round-up of world No. 1 and PGA superstar Scottie Scheffler's stance on the Saudi-backed LIV tour
Saudi-backed LIV Golf ripped up the golfing landscape when it entered the sport two years ago, sparking a battle for supremacy with the PGA Tour.
“Then you had some other guys that just left and they wanted to do something different. Everybody made their own decision and I have no bad blood towards the guys that left. But a path towards coming back, I think it wouldn't be a very popular decision if they just came back like nothing ever happened.”
“I felt like Rory was out there and was a force against the source of the money for LIV, and he was a formidable source for the PGA Tour, and he didn’t get the support from any of the players,” said Chamblee. “To be completely honest, Jon was one of my favourite people to play against,” he told Sky Sports earlier this year. "We had some good battles throughout the years and I was pretty surprised that he decided to take the money and leave. I've got a lot of good friends over there.
Speaking last month, he said: “I'm not really too much a part of it, so I haven't really heard too much, so I don't know if they're going great or if they're going poorly.
