Judge orders LIV, plaintiffs to disclose key communications in lawsuit against PGA Tour

The four remaining plaintiffs suing the PGA Tour for antitrust violations will be required to disclose communications between themselves and "outside counsel" that predate the filing, according to a recent court ruling.

Those plaintiffs include LIV Golf and three individuals: Matt Jones, Bryson DeChambeau and Peter Uihlein.

The ruling marks yet another split decision for the PGA Tour in its ongoing legal battle against LIV, as the two sides inch closer to the discovery phase of the lawsuit.

U.S. District Court Judge Susan Van Keulen ruled that these communications "may be relevant," particularly following the Tour's decision last week to file a counterclaim against LIV for contractual interference.
