Bryson DeChambeau, the former U.S. Open champion who was one of the first big names to sign up for LIV Golf, said he felt 'bad' for the players who stayed loyal to the PGA Tour after the bombshell merger was announced on Tuesday.

The most aggrieved players are likely to be those, like Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and Hideki Matsuyama, who turned down eye-watering sums from LIV Golf to remain loyal to the PGA Tour only to see the tours merge. "What I can tell you is that ... Yasir has always been a staunch supporter of golf globally, and wanting to grow the game," he added.
"I mean look, it's unfortunate what has happened but that is not something I can speak on because I'm a golfer," the American said.
