Apparently not.....

"The 2023 season is in the books! It was a special and incredible season highlighted with a win at the Mexico Open. It was my 6th Win on the @pgatour. Another highlight was reaching the tour championship for the 7th year in a row! As this year comes to an end I’m grateful to play the game that I love and to have the opportunity to compete at the highest level. I’m excited for 2024 and looking forward to playing my 10th season on the PGA Tour! And stoked to be defending in both Mexico and Houston! Thank you to my partners for your continued support. Thank you to the fans for all the love for our whole Finau fam. See y’all in Maui!

      Sneakylong iirc, I've read where he does have voting power, but has never used it.

      Sneakylong The PGA of America director is a non voting position.

            Can’t believe everything you read. Lol

              Rumours, as I said.
              The fields are being weakened by attrition, so makes sense for him to stay on...

              also looks like Hatton is not leaving yet...
              prolly waiting to see if his partsy Rahm qualifies for the Ryder Cup via rule changes..

                  Spuzz If the PGA tour and LIV tour combines, there will be a 3some in that bed, very quickly. DP tour will have to join in.
                  World ranking points and Ryder Cup will come back for all.

                      I'm waiting for the big merger before I get my card. 😎

                        Yeah, the PGA Tour and DP World Tour signed a 13 year strategic alliance last year.

                          https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/pga-tour-nearing-lucrative-3-billion-deal-with-us-sports-owners/ar-AA1lzjPE?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=edcf61e0bc5b4b2da9b6903cb7f56cfa&ei=50

                          Can't see both deals going through. That much money is not necessary and doubtful that (some of)those group owners want to be associated with LIV/Saudis. Could be a ploy to save face by Monahan.
                          Then again, they probably are already in bed with them, as many U.S. companies are/have been.

                          If they snag the U.S. groups, imo, they will dump the LIV deal. And then, all holy hell will ensue upon/within the game of Pro golf!

                            Tiger was asked about it after their round at the PNC today. Reading the tea leaves it sounds like they’re close to a deal. That was my take anyway. No mention of LIV though. Have to wait and see.

                            Knew about John Henry’s Fenway Group (Red Sox, Penguins, Liverpool owners), but didn’t know that Arthur Blank (Falcons and Home Depot) along with the Celtics owners were involved as well.

                                Pockets deep enough to put LIV to sleep, if that is the intention. And, I do think it is.

                                If that happens, the 1st person to open their mouth spouting off on the PGA tour, should be made to go to LIV.
                                Just shut the fuck up and play your golf. Pot stirring is for the ingrates of society. Or GolfBuzz, which is a different segment of society. 😅

                                    While this pro sports consortium has deep pockets, PIF has deeper pockets. If LIV is left out they won’t go away. But they’ll never get the legitimacy or TV network deals that the PGA Tour offers.

                                    The fact that Yasir and Monahan were meeting this week could indicate that LIV is still part of any deal. Or it was a meeting to say we’re going it alone. Again, we’ll have to wait and see.

                                        "Good faith" has to be met. Whether sincere meetings or not. Hinders any lawsuits from taking shape.
                                        My thoughts are the deal has already been made to keep the PGA Tour all in the U.S..
                                        Although I have not checked where all the ties are of all those consortium fellas. Bet is they go outside the U.S. for money also.

                                            Par4QC Hinders any lawsuits from taking shape

                                            Lawsuits were put to bed with the framework agreement in June. Both agreed to drop the lawsuits. We just don’t know how it’ll all shake out. But my guess is we’ll know soon.

                                            The PGA Tour looks to be in better shape with the backing of this Sports Group of billionaires.

                                              Basically he has no good choices as far as what to say. He seems like an earnest person so I'm taking him at his word.

                                                  DonM He seems like an earnest person

                                                  I'll agree with the earnest part, but I think he was more earnest about catching the top spot in the PIP payout; which he did since the press was lapping all that up.

                                                    sdandrea1 I agree.

                                                    And, I'm not playing for them for any amount of money. They had their chance last year.
