McIlroy also noted PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan was in Saudi Arabia last week meeting with PIF governor Yasir Al-Rumayyan, and Monahan is briefing the Tour’s transaction committee Wednesday night. “So maybe some news comes out of that.”

One of the transaction committee members, Rory McIlroy, will join a call on Wednesday to get the latest on the meetings between both sides. However, they also see the election results in the U.S. as a positive for a potential deal.

Rory McIlroy, a critic of LIV Golf, says Donald Trump's presidential win could 'clear the way' for a deal between the PGA Tour and the Saudi Public Investment Fund that owns LIV.
