PGA and DP World Tour to merge with LIV in stunning end to bitter golf war

The PGA Tour and LIV Golf, the insurgent league bankrolled by billions of dollars from Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund have agreed to a merger

MERGER: Brooks Koepka poses with the trophy after winning the PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club last month. Koepka was one of the biggest names to move to LIV. 

The most disruptive year in golf ended Tuesday when the PGA Tour and European tour agreed to a merger with Saudi Arabia’s golf interests, creating a commercial operation designed to unify professional golf around the world.

As part of the deal, the sides are dropping all lawsuits involving LIV Golf against each other effective immediately.
