Adam Scott: The PGA tour of the meeting with the President Donald Trump ‘positive thing’

San Diego – Adam Scott, who joined the PGA Commissioner for PGA Jay Monakana last Tuesday in the White House for Meeting with the President Donald TrumpHe offered more details about that meeting, which the circle said in the statement that the “future of professional golf men” was discussed.

Scott said that the meeting lasted about 40 minutes in the oval office and was a “really positive” step for tour in constant negotiations with the Saudi Arabia public investment fund.

“It’s just positive that the president of the United States is such a lover of golf games and understands some of the challenges she is currently facing a professional game,” said Scott to a golf channel on Tuesday in Genesis. “Given how things are sitting with the Ministry of Justice among the professional game, these are all crazy things, he is a lover of the game and we hope that the professional game will be of great help and help everyone forward.”

In June 2023. year, the tour and the PIF announced a framework agreement that completed the months of legal intersection and the Gulf for the expansion in the professional game. Since this announcement, however, the final agreement envisaged, which would unite the professional match was not achieved.

According to one source, Tiger Woods helped organize a meeting with Trump, which in the past he said he could negotiate a contract between the PIF, owned by Liv Golf and Tour in 15 minutes.

“The president is passionate (golf), he has several golf properties, amazing destinations around the world. I truly think he is also a fan of the PGA tour, and is certainly a fan of tiger woods, most people are” said Scott, who was the director of the player on Woods on the PGA tour’s board of directors. “Given that (a potential definitive agreement between tour and PIF) was tied, it can be of great help.”

Although the tour did not state that Trump involvement can accelerate negotiations, the Department of Antitrust participation Department has a current investigation into potential investment for possible antitrust breaches.

The source with the knowledge of the investigation was said for the CNBC in 2023. year that the investigation of DOJ processes a framework agreement and that it is not unusual for American antitrust authorities to review the transaction of this profile. The source added that the review does not suggest that the transaction violates antitrust laws.

Scott could not offer a time frame for reviewing the potential contract contract between tours and the PIF, but was an optimistic Trump help could help move the examination process together.

“It is difficult for perhaps administrations to understand (is) why professional golf returns together, not for more convenient, say, is not a move of antitrust or anticotive issues. That is really viewed,” Scott said. “I hope it will be able to help the president and things can move faster.”
