Major champ suggests outlandish way to end PGA Tour’s war with LIV Golf

Multiple major champion Padraig Harrington has offered his wacky solution to end the PGA Tour’s long-running feud with the LIV Golf League.

Multiple major champion Padraig Harrington has always had an interesting stance on the PGA Tour’s ‘war’ with LIV Golf. 

Harrington has consistently maintained that rules and regulations should be abided by and those that jumped across should accept that decisions have consequences.

That being said, he has also always believed there is room in the sport for two main tours competing against each other.

The 53-year-old has put forward a number of ideas over the last few years that could potentially solve the problem.

His latest came before the Amgen Irish Open at Royal County Down where he outlined what some may view as a ‘wacky’ suggestion.

As far as Harrington is concerned, simply adding more events into the schedule is not the answer.

“Most players say they want to play less so it’s hard to add another 14 tournaments and have players have dual membership,” he told reporters.

“So ideally for me I would suggest that every PGA Tour and European Tour event should have four invites for LIV players, and every LIV event should have four invites for an International team.”

So what about this week?

“If we had four LIV players this week, they would be focused on them, and people would be watching it,” Harrington added.

“Some people would be wanting them to do well and some people would be wanting them to do badly.

“But that would create a bit of a buzz and vice versa, if four PGA Tour players or four international players turned up at a LIV event, they wouldn’t want that team winning, they wouldn’t want the outsiders, so that creates a bit of a buzz for them.

“That’s the only solution I can see in golfing terms.”
