While some players, including Rory McIlroy, advocate for the return of LIV Golf players without punishment, others, like Christiaan Bezuidenhout, oppose it. The potential PIF alliance is still uncertain and subject to regulatory review, but Spieth remains optimistic about the future of the PGA Tour.

The goal is to have SSG, PIF, and DP World Tour as minority co-investors in PGA Tour Enterprises by 2024, aiming to unify and innovate the game. The update comes as players gather in Maui for The Sentry event, which starts the 2024 PGA TOUR season.
