Two more LIV Golf members have reportedly dropped out of antitrust lawsuit against the PGA Tour
On August 3, the Wall Street Journal originally reported that 11 LIV Golf Series members including Phil Mickelson and Bryson DeChambeau filed a lawsuit against the PGA Tour.
Six days later, Carlos Ortiz withdrew his name from the lawsuit. Pat Perez announced during a phone interview August 19 that he, too, decided to remove his name. Now two more players have moved on.
Jason Kokrak and Abraham Ancer have been removed in an amended complaint that was filed Friday, August 26, according to a report from Golf Channel’s Rex Hoggard.
The remaining seven players, Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau, Talor Gooch, Hudson Swafford, Matt Jones, Ian Poulter and Peter Uihlein, are challenging their suspensions by the PGA Tour for their actions in joining the Greg Norman-led series, which is backed by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund.
