The big business folks have a way better chance of navigating this dynamic than the players have of structuring a multibillion dollar financial transaction between international entities. The chance of Jordan Spieth and Patrick Cantlay figuring out how to do that is effectively zero.
You're missing my point. There's no way that Spieth or Cantlay can organize a multi-million dollar deal. That's irrelevant:
Officials: "We're negotiated a great deal with the PIF."
Players: "No."
Officials: "But it's a great deal. You'll make money."
Players: "No."
Officials: "You'll never do any better on your own getting the LIV guys back on tour."
Players: "We don't want them back. We don't care how much money we will make. They p***sed us off so to hell with them. No deal."
For the players, it's totally personal. It has nothing to do with business. And I think the feeling is mutual on the LIV side. The LIV players and Greg Norman are all in on LIV Golf and feel the same way about the PGA Tour players.

You guys are not getting this. Jay has to be the man to do this or he would already have parted ways. The two have to merge at some point. Every major makes this worse.
Having a new guy come in for Jay right now would be crazy. Maybe after this deal is done.

You couldn't be more wrong. See Jon Rahm's comments on the PGA this week.
The PGA and the players left are like the nerds who think they wield some great power now and want to stick it to the jocks.
LIV players have almost universally wanted to play some PGA events since its inception.
This is exactly why the players shouldn't have been involved. They can't separate business from personal
