The effective Saudi buyout of the sport comes despite PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan invoking the suffering of 9/11 families in previous hostilities
It ends a bitter feud and legal hostilities that have dragged on for more than a year thanks to a sizeable “capital investment” from Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund., already the chairman of Newcastle FC and state-owned petroleum company Saudi Aramco, will also chair the new golfing body.– comes despite PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan previously invoking the suffering of 9/11 families in previous hostilities with LIV Sport.
9/11 Families United said in a statement on Tuesday that despite “co-opting the 9/11 community” previously, the PGA and Monahan “appear to have become just more paid Saudi shills, taking billions of dollars to cleanse the Saudi reputation so that Americans and the world will forget how the Kingdom spent their billions of dollars before 9/11 to fund terrorism, spread their vitriolic hatred of Americans, and finance al Qaeda and the murder of our loved ones.
He added: “Mr Monahan talked last summer about knowing people who lost loved ones on 9/11, then wondered aloud on national television whether LIV Golfers ever had to apologise for being a member of the PGA Tour. They do now -0 as does he. “PGA Tour leaders should be ashamed of their hypocrisy and greed. Our entire 9/11 community has been betrayed by Commissioner Monahan and the PGA as it appears their concern for our loved ones was merely window-dressing in their quest for money – it was never to honour the great game of golf.”
