What is the LIV Golf controversy?

The controversy over the LIV Golf series started as soon as the idea was introduced.

Initially, the skepticism had to do with political reasons as Saudi Arabia's PIF backs the new series.

Many thought the country's motive was to restore its global image by reinstating the breakout tour.

The controversy then expanded to the PGA Tour with the focal point being around paychecks. Many stars of the PGA Tour decided to make that switch after signing hefty paychecks that they weren't getting with the traditional tour.

The controversy is still alive as players like Tiger Woods and Rory Mcllroy have openly criticized LIV Golf and have rallied to support the PGA.
