Cameron Young REJECTS LIV Golf to stay on the PGA Tour after Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy proposals

Cameron Young, the world No 17, says he is staying with the PGA Tour after having talks with LIV Golf about joining the Saudi-backed breakaway circuit.

Young, speaking after the last round of the Tour Championship on Sunday, admitted he had been tempted by LIV but after Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods spearheaded proposals to make the PGA Tour better, decided to stay.

‘It’s a really difficult situation because it’s not anything that anyone really wanted to happen,’ Young said. ‘I think it wasn’t meant to be this kind of hostile between the two.

‘We don’t know who’s going to go after this week or next year. 

‘I think there’s a really nice core group of guys that are just going to stay, and a lot of them are highly ranked players in the world. 

‘I don’t think the competition on the PGA Tour is going to go downhill significantly.’
