The PGA Tour suspended 17 players, including Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson, for competing in the new rival, Saudi-backed LIV Golf circuit
HEMEL HEMPSTEAD, England—The PGA Tour suspended 17 players, including Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson, who are participating here in the first event of the new rival, Saudi-backed LIV Golf circuit.
The long-anticipated sanctions came in a memo sent by commissioner Jay Monahan to PGA Tour players shortly after the LIV Golf participants teed off here at Centurion Club just northwest of London for the inaugural tournament. The PGA Tour had previously made clear its players were not permitted to participate and had denied release waivers for the tournament, which conflicts with the PGA Tour’s RBC Canadian Open.
