The ongoing discussions between PGA Tour Enterprises and the Public Investment Fund (PIF) of Saudi Arabia seem to be gaining ground towards a significant conclusion.

PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan, along with Tiger Woods and Adam Scott, are set to meet with officials from the White House on Thursday in the hopes of securing federal assistance for their negotiations. This comes amid growing speculation about a potential $1.5 billion investment from the PIF to unify men’s golf. The meeting will also include Yasir Al-Rumayyan, the PIF governor.

Woods and Scott, who hold positions as player directors for the PGA Tour, are optimistic about the discussions, citing President Donald Trump’s passion for golf as a potential catalyst for success.

Currently, the PIF remains committed to maintaining LIV Golf, which has been a point of contention between the two parties.

Woods recently expressed at the Genesis Invitational that negotiations are in a ‘very positive place.’ Monahan echoed his sentiments, noting previous discussions with Trump have yielded productive outcomes due to his deep appreciation for the sport of golf.
