With so many new changes in the golf world, let’s speculate where the PGA Tour stands now.

The PGA Tour is in deep waters of dismay following departure of Jon Rahm

The PGA Tour is going through a tough time. While the date to finalize the framework agreement nears, its asset, Jon Rahm, left the tour. Rahm left the tour at a juncture where LIV has an upper hand in negotiations and the PGA Tour lags behind. In these times of ordeal, when some significant golfers have refused to continue for money, others have stayed back.

Rory McIlroy has decided to support his tour. Tiger Woods, who returned after a long time of rehabilitation, is continuing with PGAT. Also, players like Patrick Cantlay, Justin Thomas, and many others are reported to be seen at the marquee events.

The PGA Tour is also contemplating having other financial backing than PIF. It has already received a lot of sponsorship requests. On that note, though the PGA Tour is striving, with time, it will get through the storm and approach bright days.
