PGA Tour turn to Tiger Woods in desperate attempt to validate $3bn investment deal

Tiger Woods heralded the PGA Tour’s new deal after receiving a huge cash injection from an investment group that includes Liverpool owner John W. Henry and Fenway Sports Group
2024

The tour announced the deal, fronted by Liverpool owner John W. Henry, on Wednesday after negotiations were completed late on Tuesday evening, bringing an immediate $1.5b (£1.2b) cash injection, with the potential for that investment to double over time. New York Mets owner Steven A. Cohen and Atlanta Falcons supremo Arthur Blank are also part of the investment group.

The deal will give almost 200 PGA Tour members the opportunity to hold equity in newly-formed PGA Tour Enterprises, seen as a reward for loyalty amid the LIV Golf breakaway. The SSG investment is not directly tied to the PGA Tour’s ongoing negotiations with LIV backers the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund, with merger talks that would heal the fractures in the elite game being held up by US Government scrutiny.

It was the most memorable moment of my career.” Brought up in China’s southern Guangdong province, neighbouring Hong Kong, an 18-year-old Feng became the first Chinese player to earn an LPGA tour card in 2007. The easy-going Feng went on to be the first Chinese player, man or woman, to win a major and lifted 10 LPGA titles during her 14 active years on the tour. In 2017, Feng became the only Chinese golfer to date to reach the world No 1 ranking. During a supremely consistent career, Feng registered 18 top-10 finishes in majors, two of them in 2021 even as she was winding down her playing commitments.
