Overview
- Speaking on The Overlap podcast, McIlroy said he would be OK with Bryson DeChambeau and other LIV golfers returning if it strengthens the tour.
- He emphasized that any change would be decided by PGA Tour members, noting the tour’s existing one‑year wait for players coming from non‑sanctioned events.
- Brooks Koepka’s December departure from LIV could test that return pathway, though no attempt to rejoin the PGA Tour has been announced.
- LIV has moved from 54 to 72 holes in a bid for Official World Golf Ranking points, and OWGR says its review of LIV’s application remains ongoing.
- McIlroy questioned LIV’s staying power with fans and said golf needs its top players competing together more frequently to stay relevant.
