Changes to the tour include elevated events. There is a 0:41
The former world No. 1 said he only could laugh at the changes the tour made.
According to Westwood, his former tour is taking a lot of ideas from his new tour.
In an interview with Golf Digest, Westwood said he was amused by what the players on the tour had come up with. There is a copy of what LIV is doing. A lot of people are hypocrites. LIV is not competitive according to everyone. They all agree on the no-cut aspect of LIV.
13 elevated events that will have average purses of $20 million are included in the 20 tournaments that the top players have committed to play in.
The majority of the tournaments on the PGA Tour are 72 holes. There are 54 holes in the golf events.
Westwood said that they are proposing 20 events that look like LIV. At some point they are going to choke on their words. Hopefully, they will be held to account as we were in the beginning.
More than two dozen players on the PGA Tour have been suspended for competing in tournaments without the tour's permission.
In 2010 Westwood became the first British golfer since Nick Faldo to hold the top spot in the Official World Golf Ranking. There is a strategic alliance between the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour.
Westwood has seen how the PGA Tour has acted in the past. There isn't a lot of "giving." They're getting their comeuppance because they've always been a bully. The prize purses have gone up since Woods joined the tour. All the best players from Europe have left the European Tour due to that. They took all their world ranking points with them when they played in the US. They wanted to put up the money. All the players are needed. All the world ranking points, hog. Which leads to self-perpetuation. Over the last few months, we've seen LIV doing what the PGA Tour has done for the last 25 years.
