Donald Trump is stepping in to help bring an end to professional golf\u2019s civil war.<\/p>\n

In a statement on Thursday, the PGA Tour said it was\u00a0\u201ccloser to a deal\u201d with rival series LIV Golf after both sides requested that Trump help mediate the situation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know golf fans are eagerly anticipating a resolution to negotiations with the Public Investment Fund and want to thank President Trump for his interest and long-time support of the game of golf,\u201d read the statement which came from PGA Tour Chairman Jay Monahan, player director Scott and 15-time major winner Tiger Woods.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe asked the President to get involved for the good of the game, the good of the country, and for all the countries involved.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful that his leadership has brought us closer to a final deal, paving the way for reunification of men\u2019s professional golf.\u201d<\/p>\n

LIV Golf launched in 2022 with the backing of the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF), attracting several world-class players from the PGA Tour with massive signing bonuses and prize money.<\/p>\n

However, players who joined the LIV Tour are currently prohibited from competing in PGA Tour events, with the exception of the four majors.<\/p>\n

Notable defections to the tour included DeChambeau, Phil Mickelson, Jon Rahm, Brooks Koepka, Ian Poulter, and Sergio Garcia.<\/p>\n

In June 2023, the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour revealed a framework agreement<\/a> for a merger between the two sides, but the deal\u2019s deadline expired at the end of the year without completion.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, it was announced that this year\u2019s U.S. Open will be the first major tournament to grant LIV Golf players exemptions based on their rankings.<\/p>\n

Trump is famous for his love of golf and is still achieving impressively low scores at the age of 78.<\/p>\n

Last year, he participated in a video with U.S. Open winner Bryson DeChambeau.<\/p>\n

\n

It was an honor hosting 2X U.S. Open Champion @b_dechambeau at the iconic @TrumpBedminster<\/a> for his series, Break 50.<\/p>\n

DeChaumbeau later attended Trump\u2019s election night party at Mar-a-Lago, where Trump thanked him during his victory speech.<\/p>\n
