Sergio Garcia has seen his relationship with Rory McIlroy tested since he joined the LIV Golf league, but tensions appear to be cooling with the 'merger' talks ongoing
Sergio Garcia has praised Rory McIlroy 's shift in stance towards LIV Golf , indicating a thawing of tensions within the sport.
Garcia expressed his approval of McIlroy 's new outlook on the LIV league to Golf Magic, saying: "I think it's great. I think at the end of the day it shows we're all very emotional and we try to defend our positions and stuff like that, but at the end of the day, it shows we all want to go in the same direction and make golf better.
On the inaugural day which saw Al-Rumayyan tee off alongside PGA Tour Commissioner and fellow negotiator, Jay Monahan Rory McIlroy appeared to be in good spirits, engaging in a friendly chat with the Saudi official on the driving range. They then took their conversation to the fairways the following day.
Echoing the sentiment for collaboration, McIlroy emphasised the significance of discourse within the sport. "There's no better place than the home of golf to try and get everyone together and talking," he mentioned last week.
