I thought sponsors could not or would not sponsor LIV players?

I see Koepka, DJ, and Cam Smith in a few commercials along w/ PGA players. What happened to the PGA forcing sponsors to opt out supporting/promoting LIV players?
Titleist and some club mfg(Calloway maybe?) have both LIV and PGA players in their ads.

Never heard this. All of these guys still have apparel and clubs deals for the most part.

How would they enforce this?
I think callaway stopped promoting Phil after his comments last year and him leaving. But not sure anyone else got dropped.

When did the PGA ever have a say in it? Tell us.

The PGA Tour has little too do with it.

DJ was wearing a Taylor Made hat during the Masters not sure if he was paid for it if not but would guess so.

Wally retired years ago. He is 73 now.

DeChambeau got dropped by Cobra and Bridgestone for moving to LIV. Sergio got dropped by Taylormade and Adidas. Seems like Ping, Srixon, Titleist, and Callaway held firm. Both Sergio and Bryson are playing Ping.

I am asking a question. I pretty sure the PGA commish was pressuring sponsors and the majors to reject the LIV players, at least early on. I don't know about now, especially since he has made concessions to the PGA players big time due to LIV.

Some sponsors did drop players. Which makes sense since the amount of eyes watching the players play went down when they moved to LIV.
