McIlroy would vote for LIV players to return to PGA Tour

Rory McIlroy stated he would vote to allow LIV Golf players to return to the PGA Tour, arguing that bringing them back would benefit the business of traditional golf tours. Speaking in New Delhi ahead of the DP World India Championship, the world number two said he no longer views the breakaway circuit as a threat to the sport's established order.

McIlroy noted that LIV Golf wasted substantial capital and expressed doubt about its future amid ongoing financial and structural turmoil, including Jon Rahm opting out of the circuit. He also acknowledged that he and Tiger Woods initially opposed LIV partly to protect their own interests, including Tomorrow's Golf League, and admitted the division led to strained relationships with former European Ryder Cup teammates.
