PGA Tour commissioner optimistic about PIF talks
PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan remains optimistic about the ongoing talks with Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) despite a recent report suggesting a lack of “clear vision” for a potential partnership. “We’re continuing to have discussions with PIF,” Monahan said during a media availability at the PGA Championship. “I think there’s a recognition on both sides that we’re not going to agree on every point and we’re going to have to find a way to bridge those gaps.” Monahan emphasized that the PGA Tour has been “very clear in our values” and that any partnership with PIF would need to be “consistent with those values.” He also reiterated the Tour’s commitment to listening to its members and stakeholders in making any decisions.
