The Hindu  

Merger or no merger with the PGA Tour, “long live LIV Golf” is the message players on the circuit are hearing from their bosses. LIV Golf’s schedule will not change this season or next, Dustin Johnson said on Tuesday in preparation for the U.S. Open in Los Angeles. Johnson said he heard straight from the boss - future chairman of LIV-PGA Tour Yasir Al-Rumayyan - that plans for any combined events outside of majors and select exceptions wouldn’t be in place until next season. “As far as I know, in 2024 we’ll have a full schedule just like we did this year.” When asked if he heard the details from Al-Rumayyan, Johnson said, “Yes.” “I just hope we can get all the best players in the world playing at the same time in golf tournaments.
