LIV Golf Investments CEO and commissioner Greg Norman told the Washington Post the Saudi-funded rival league of the PGA Tour made a monstrous offer to Woods, and the 15-time champion turned it down.
"Phil has said some things that I think a lot of us who are committed to the Tour and committed to the legacy of the tour have pushed back against, and he’s taken some personal time, and we all understand that. But I think that some of his views on how the Tour could be run, should be run, been a lot of disagreement there.”
Mickelson on Monday became the sixth former major champion to sign up for the breakaway league, joining Dustin Johnson, Sergio Garcia, Louis Oosthuizen, Martin Kaymer and Charl Schwartzel. The LIV Golf Invitational, which is the league's inaugural event being held outside of London starting Friday, will award $4 million to the winner and $25 million total in prize money.
The PGA Tour did not grant releases for any of its 14 members who signed up to play in the first of LIV Golf's eight planned tournaments this year. At least six of those 14 players have already resigned their Tour memberships, including Garcia, Oosthuizen, Schwartzel, Branden Grace and Kevin Na.
