Tiger Woods joins Jordan Spieth to provide cryptic update on ‘disappointing’ PGA-LIV merger
It has been about a year since the PGA and LIV reached a merger agreement, but they have encountered difficulty agreeing on specific terms and reaching a valid signed agreement. In this context, Tiger Woods joined forces with Jordan Spieth to take stock of the current negotiations. According to Golfweek, Woods said the deal is still in progress and confirmed that negotiations are continuing between the two parties. He added: “Is there any progress? Yes. But these are ongoing negotiations, and we all have a lot of work to do in this process, and so we’re taking steps, and it may not be big steps, but we’re taking steps.
“I can’t stop laughing because I only feel positive momentum when I’m having these internal conversations, and then every time something comes from the outside world, the opposite happens and it’s a little frustrating, so it makes me laugh a little bit.”
According to the press release, Jordan Spieth said he’s pleased with the progress so far. Nevertheless, he does not feel the same as the factor that scatters outside.
The PGA tour and LIV golf / PIF exceeded the initial conditions without reaching the agreement. The investigation by the US Department of Justice has contributed to this delay, and currently, there is no definite timeline for its conclusion. Furthermore, details about the potential resolution remain scarce. The PGA-LIV merger is one of the hottest topics in golf right now, and since the announcement, players from both sides have been eager to share their thoughts on the future of the sport and the ongoing discussions. “I think the PGA Tour has a vision of what it wants to look like in 12, 18 (months) and then down the road, five, 10 and 20 years from now, you know, or at least 10 years from now.” let’s say, and what it should turn into. But at the moment there is another party that they are negotiating with that also has to believe in this vision, and I don’t know exactly what their vision is,” he said. He continued, has achieved results and expresses his religion that they are successful. Australia’s Golfist is convinced that someone will greatly accelerate the process in the near future. “You have to sort of break the ice, and someone has to show their hand. This must happen soon. “We’re moving forward as quickly as we can,” he said.
