The most disruptive year in golf ended Tuesday when the PGA Tour and European Tour agreed to a merger with Saudi Arabia’s golf interests, creating a commercial operation designed to unify professional golf around the world, per the AP.

Still to be determined is how players like Brooks Koepka and Dustin Johnson, who defected to the Saudi-funded LIV Golf for nine-figure bonuses, can rejoin the PGA Tour after this year.
