'I have no plans to play the LIV series' - Hovland
Viktor Hovland, the Norwegian golfer, has denied rumours suggesting he was set to join the LIV Golf Series.www.eurosport.co.uk
Schauffele said just 2 days ago that the rumors about him are bullshyt:
“Honestly, I’m so happy. You actually asked me,” Xander Schauffele said. “You’re the first one. No. I’m not going. I want to play against the best players in the world, and they’re on the PGA Tour. Nobody that has left has moved the needle for me.”
Morikawa and Koepka say in the same article that the rumors are bullshyt, but they don't outright deny that they'll go so maybe they're keeping the door open?
'No, I'm not going': Swirling LIV rumors vex players at U.S. Open
LIV rumors have everyone looking for inside info, from media and fans to the players themselves. Some enjoy the rumor mill more than others.golf.com
Honestly, unless ALL the players are lying, this sounds like pro-Saudi bullshyt to try to get people to go by making them think other players are about to go. Not saying it's impossible for any of these guys to change their mind in the future, but it would be a pretty big lie to say straight-up that you have no plans to go if you've already decided to go like the rumors claim.
Brooks Koepka confirmed going to join LIV
Sources: Koepka latest to leave PGA Tour for LIV
Four-time major champion Brooks Koepka is the latest golfer to defect from the PGA Tour to the LIV Golf Invitational Series, sources have confirmed to ESPN.
Also Abraham Ancer another top 20 player.
I think these players are gonna milk as much money from the Saudis until the money runs dry or if this tour somehow becomes successful. LIV is just offering way too much money guaranteed money for these guys to pass up.
The PGA may have to fall back on them banning these guys from their tour or events like Ryder Cup or Presidents Cup.

Theegala's caddie failed him. Should have let him know getting out of that bunker was the most important thing and not go for a hero shot.

Straight up jacked Rory for this major 
Cam Smith clearly entered this season primed to win his first major. Congrats. One more victory and he might snatch poty from Scottie.
