Sad news: Xander Schauffele strongly disagrees with Rory McIlroy after his five-word comment…
Xander Schauffele doesn’t agree with Rory McIlroy’s criticism of PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan.
The new US PGA champion resisted the temptation to join LIV Golf despite negotiations with the breakaway series. Schauffele emphasized his commitment to the PGA Tour, although he voiced his dissatisfaction with Monahan’s leadership amid golf’s civil war.
Monahan initially tried to suppress LIV’s influence on top-level golf, but was forced to make a U-turn as the Saudi-backed tour attracted a host of prominent players and gained enormous popularity as a result. Monahan was surprised at sports 12 months ago, announced a framework agreement with LIV customers, and opened a potential merger.
Initially, Monkan tried to cancel the LIV effect on golf at the highest level. Saudi’s tour attracted many players from the brand and gained great momentum, so it was forced to reach a large divorce. Monahan stunned the sports world 12 months ago when he announced a framework agreement with LIV’s backers, paving the way for a possible merger.
I’ve been critical of Jay in the past, but the fact is, our commander in chief has never stood up for all of us athletes and said, ‘This is what’s happening, this is where we’re going,’ and he didn’t. He didn’t stand up for us. In fact. He didn’t have an attitude when someone left, and he didn’t go out in public and face the music.
