Trump Said This About PGA-Liv Merge

(Scypre.com) – Social media is currently abuzz with praise for former President Donald Trump, as his prediction from last year about a potential merger between the PGA and LIV Golf has proven to be accurate. News broke on Tuesday confirming that the two golf organizations have indeed agreed to merge.

In July 2022, Trump took to Truth Social to express his thoughts on the matter. He warned that golfers who remained loyal to the PGA, despite its perceived disloyalty in various forms, would face significant consequences when the inevitable merger with LIV occurred. Trump also criticized PGA officials for profiting immensely while offering only a hollow “thank you” to the players.

During this time, professional golfers were contemplating lucrative offers to join the LIV Tour, despite media scrutiny surrounding its Saudi funding, referred to as “blood money.” Trump urged golfers to seize the opportunity, highlighting the potential regret of those who missed out. He also congratulated the talented Cam Smith on his remarkable victory.

After nearly a year of stating that a merger was off the table, the PGA and LIV shocked the sports world on Tuesday by announcing their union. This momentous event was described by PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan as a historic day for the beloved game of golf.

Monahan emphasized that the merger would leverage the PGA TOUR’s rich history, legacy, and pro-competitive model, combining it with the DP World Tour and LIV, including the innovative team golf concept. The resulting organization is expected to bring significant benefits to players, commercial and charitable partners, as well as fans.
