Keith Pelley departing CEO of DP World Tour anticipates the inevitable unification of the PGA Tour and LIV Golf even if it takes a decade. The golf industry has been in a civil war for two years due to LIV tempting offers to top players.

Pelley believes a collective product is crucial for global golf’s best interests and sustained growth in prize funds. Rory McIlroy shares concerns about a fractured golf landscape and supports a world tour that incorporates both “corporate America” and Saudi investment while also highlighting historic national Opens globally.

Pelley acknowledges McIlroy’s alignment and values his outspoken stance in shaping the future of golf.
