To say the breaking news of the PGA Tour’s merger with the LIV Golf League caught virtually everyone off guard would be a massive understatement.
Golf Twitter has been ablaze on this Tuesday morning with shock and awe and the reactions have been flying fast and furious.
Since the inception of the PGA Tour vs. LIV debate, there have been a few prominent, outspoken critics of the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund-backed breakaway tour, most notably Golfweek’s Eamon Lynch and Golf Channel’s Brandel Chamblee.
A tweet he posted on May 31, essentially sums up his long-held view of LIV golf:
Chamblee has made his position clear time and again
As I have said many times, LIV Golf is not so much a sports entity as it is MBS / Saudi Arabia trying to hide their atrocities and launder its reputation by buying sports stars. Any yielding to or agreement with them is a deal with a murderous dictator.
Chamblee’s last tweet before merger news
Chamblee’s last Tweet on record pertaining to the situation was posted on June 2 as part of a continued thread about Phil Mickelson in particular and Chamblee’s efforts to get Lefty to join the Golf Channel set to discuss on live TV the state of affairs.
By this type of “journalism” do you mean teasing the truth out of Phil Mickelson’s desultory attempt at turning Khashoggi’s murder and dismemberment into leverage? And btw, I made overtures to have a debate with him outside of LIVE FROM and he turned it down, because he no doubt…
Brooks Koepka offers early opinion
Now, with the golf world turned on its head, Chamblee is a popular search term.
One of the early mentions of Chamblee on social media came from LIV golfer Brooks Koepka:

Koepka ‘buried’ Chamblee
The New York Post went so far as to say Koepka “buried” Chamblee with those four words.
