Tiger Woods' Former Coach Hank Haney Sues PGA Tour over SiriusXM Radio Firing

Tiger Woods' former coach Hank Haney is suing the PGA Tour, saying the organisation is responsible for his dismissal from SiriusXM radio.

Haney's lawsuit, filed in a U.S. district court, says the tour "improperly intimidated, enticed and threatened SiriusXM Radio to suspend and ultimately terminate," per ESPN's Bob Harig.

The suit also accuses the tour of being motivated by having "wanted to settle an old score relating to professional golfer Tiger Woods."

Haney hosted a show on SiriusXM's PGA Tour Radio station. His time with the broadcaster started to be cut short back in June this year when he was first suspended, then ultimately let go altogether.
