Adam Scott Believes LIV Golfers Won’t Be Welcomed Back to the PGA Tour With Open Arms

Published

The Australian thinks PGA Tour players may have an issue with LIV golfers playing in Tour events.

Adam Scott thinks there will be some hard feelings if LIV golfers are welcomed back onto the PGA Tour.

“I wouldn’t be surprised—or I wouldn’t judge anyone, the members—if reunification happened and they weren’t happy with how it happened,” the former Masters champion said to the Associated Press at the Genesis Invitational. “I hope they’re not spending as much time talking about it as I have.

I wouldn’t hold it against anybody if there were negative emotions attached to it, the thought of players coming back.”

The Australian was elected as Player Advisory Council chairman, which eventually turned into becoming a player director. In that role, Scott and PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan met with President Donald Trump two weeks ago to discuss the unification of the sport.

“I’ll be honest, it took a couple of months to wrap my head around stuff,” he said. “Within the first few weeks of me coming on the board, we’re voting for a minority shareholder to take equity in the tour. There aren’t easy answers to any of this stuff. Everyone is entitled to feel something about what’s happened.”

“The one thing I do know is we’re not going to please everyone, but everyone should know that I will stand behind these player directors. They’re trying to do the best thing for the entire membership. They’ve been faced with some tough decisions the last two years—tough calls, big consequences—for whatever we vote on.”

Last week, Rory McIlroy said players need to “get over it” for the good of the professional game.

“So I think everyone’s just got to get over it and we all have to say, O.K., this is the starting point and we move forward,” McIlroy said. “We don’t look behind us, we don’t look to the past, whatever’s happened, happened. And it’s been unfortunate. But reunification is the best thing for everyone.

“So if people are butthurt or got their feelings hurt because guys went (to LIV Golf) and whatever, who cares? Let’s move forward together and let’s just try to get this thing going again and do what’s best for the game. From my point of view, I don’t think it’s complicated.”

While McIlroy doesn’t think it’s complicated, Scott believes the exact opposite.

“But it’s not solely the tour’s decision, you know what I mean?” he said. “There’s two people in this discussion, more to be honest—the DP World Tour, a lot of other stakeholders in the pro game. The tour and its representatives talk a lot about it. But we’re not in control of the entire situation. There’s another side to the story.

“It’s not been an easy thing to solve, otherwise we’d have solved it, I believe.”

Whether the players like it or not, there are signals that a deal to unify the professional game in on the horizon. While appearing in the CBS booth during the Genesis Invitational, Tiger Woods said he thinks that “things are going to heal quickly.”

“We’re going to get this game going in the right direction,” Woods said. “It’s been heading in the wrong direction for a number of years and the fans want all of us to play together, all the top players playing together and we’re going to make that happen.”

The PGA Tour is in Mexico this week, but all eyes remain fixed on the overall state of the game and the ongoing effort to bring all of the best players in the world together once again.

Express Sport brings you the latest tennis news from the Paris Masters.

We’re reaching the business end of the Paris Masters, as eight players become four in the French capital. Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming favourite to lift the trophy after Carlos Alcaraz was dumped out by Cameron Norrie in the Spaniard’s opening match. Norrie was then beaten by Valentin Vacherot, whose amazing 10-match winning streak at Masters 1000 level came to an end when he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.

Canadian star Auger-Aliassime will face Alexander Bublik in the semis. Bublik defeated Alex de Minaur, who is among those to have already qualified for the year-end ATP Finals. Sinner is through to his first Paris Masters semi-final after beating Ben Shelton. He’ll face defending champion Alexander Zverev, who survived a tough match against Daniil Medvedev.

Novak Djokovic is not involved in the Paris Masters, having decided to skip the event for the second year in a row, but he has learned his fate in the draw of next week’s ATP 250 in Athens. And over in Riyadh, the WTA Finals are about to get underway.

Tennis fans across the globe are rallying behind Holger Rune, after the Danish star shared an emotional but determined message following his devastating Achilles injury that abruptly ended his 2025 season.

The 22-year-old, known for his fierce competitiveness and electric energy on court, was forced to retire during the Stockholm Open semifinals after collapsing in pain mid-match against Ugo Humbert. Moments later, Rune confirmed what fans feared — a torn Achilles tendon, one of the toughest injuries any athlete can face.

But instead of silence or despair, Rune chose to face the challenge head-on. In a heartfelt message posted to social media, he wrote:

“It’s gonna be a while before I can step on court again… It’s tough. I had so much joy out there, and it’s unbearable to think I won’t feel that energy for some time. But I’ll be back — stronger, wiser, and more grateful than ever.”

His words, filled with pain yet overflowing with resilience, immediately resonated with millions. Fellow players, coaches, and fans flooded his post with encouragement, calling him a “fighter”, a “true champion in spirit”, and the embodiment of perseverance.

Rune has already undergone successful surgery and, in a move that stunned many, shared photos of himself training from a seated position — refusing to let recovery stop his momentum. The images showed a young man focused not on what he’s lost, but on what he can rebuild.

Even as he faces months of rehabilitation, Rune’s story has become a symbol of mental toughness and grace under pressure. His family and team remain by his side, reminding the tennis world that this setback doesn’t define his career — it refines it.

As one fan beautifully wrote:

“He may be off the court, but his spirit is still winning matches.”

For Holger Rune, this isn’t the end of a season — it’s the start of a comeback story that could inspire a generation. 💥🔥
