TL;DR Summary

The US Senate's Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations is investigating the PGA Tour's partnership with LIV Golf and the DP World Tour, which is funded by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. The inquiry will focus on the sudden deal between the Tour and LIV Golf, which ended a legal battle between the two leagues. The PGA Tour's tax-exempt nonprofit status is also at risk due to the PIF's funding. Sen. Richard Blumenthal has requested documents and communications related to the agreement, the legal dispute, and the Tour's tax-exempt status. Both the Tour and LIV Golf have until June 26 to respond.
