COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The day of reckoning arrived for the PGA Tour and more than a dozen of its players on Tuesday, as 13 tour members were included in the field for the first LIV Golf Invitational Series in London next week.
PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan has warned players that they would face stiff penalties for competing in the rival circuit. The tour issued another statement saying as much again on Wednesday.
While the London field lacks much of the punch that LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman had initially hoped for, the series still dealt a blow to the tour and the current state of professional golf.
