Even though the deadline for concluding the proposed equity deal is drawing near, Tiger Woods appears to have been positioned as the man who ultimately unites LIV golf with the professional tours.
Woods’ official opinions of the process have fluctuated in public, but it’s not clear when he has been diplomatic or honest.
In November, he expressed his dissatisfaction with the PGA Tour’s slow pace of governance changes and provided a pessimistic assessment of the process.
“I’m happy to add the process, but I’m also frustrated by some of the governance changes’ tardiness.
“December 31 is rapidly approaching. There is a schedule there that we would like to use to put some of these unimplemented changes into effect. Each party is actively attempting to close a deal while conversing with the other. Our goal is to ensure that the procedure is improved. the application of governance.
“Combining business and completing it correctly is important. We would like to close a deal by December 31 and have several options. Everyone involved is aware of that. There are substitutes available.
“As long as the board acknowledges that a player has input and makes decisions more quickly.” One of the main areas on which the player directors have concentrated is that. The board as a whole has accepted that.
Woods’ optimism increased at the start of December when the sports investment group SSG indicated that they would like to acquire equity as well.
“As of right now, our deadline and time frame are December 31. After the PNC Championship, Woods stated, “That hasn’t changed.”
“We’re attempting to reach an agreement with each of the various parties involved in this situation.
“SSG is now included in the mix,” Woods continued.
“We are all going in the right direction, and they clearly have a lot of equity and a lot of name investors who have the same alignment as us.”
Woods’s confidence in his ability to regain his championship form and fitness has never wavered.
Woods remarked, “I know I can still do it if I can prepare, practice, and do the things I know I can do.”
“I can still hit a round of golf.” It just requires preparation, completing enough repetitions and work, being in good physical shape, and having the necessary endurance.
“My leg hasn’t been strong enough to allow me to compete and play a lot of rounds.
“I can still hit a round of golf.” I’m still able to chip. I’m still proficient at putts.
Granted, it’s also connecting the dots for a full 72 holes. That’s the difficult aspect of it.
