And: NPR: The PGA tour is merging with its Saudi-backed rival,LIV Golf and creating a new entity. The PGA will gain majority board seats and Yasir al-Rumayyan, the governor of the Saudi Sovereign Wealth Fund, will become chairman. The deal was a surprise to everyone, including star golf players, according to The New Yorker’s Zach Helfand. When asked if the deal is a way for the Saudis to cover up its poor human rights record, Helfand said this aspect “has been a little bit overblown,” and people tell him a golf league can’t wash away human rights abuses. Instead, the league will serve Saudi business and economic needs.”

Doesn’t surprise me,. If it surprised Zach Helfand, I can see why the New Yorker is losing readers. Maybe the Saudis can buy tht rag up also.

So now, by association with LIV, the PGA has blood on it’s hands.
