After remaining steadfast in his backing of the PGA Tour against LIV Golf in the past month, Rory McIlroy made headlines earlier this week with comments concerning the need for peace talks and felt compelled to clarify himself Saturday.
McIlroy told BBC Sport Northern Ireland on Thursday he believed the DP World Tour, PGA Tour and LIV Golf needed to come together to resolve their “messy” situation, signaling a possible shift in his stance against the upstart tour. When presented with an opportunity to further clarify his remarks, however, McIlroy told Kyle Porter of CBS Sports on Saturday that he remains opposed to LIV Golf and the league’s place in the sport.
