According to the lawsuit, it was actually Nicklaus Companies that stopped Nicklaus from accepting that deal.

“The Company essentially saved Mr. Nicklaus from himself by extricating him from a controversial project that could have not only tarnished his legacy and reputation, but severely damaged the Nicklaus Companies’ name, brands and business,” the lawsuit said, via Sports Illustrated. "Thanks to the intervention of Nicklaus Companies, the Company was able to minimize fallout from the situation and protect the goodwill and good name of both the Company and Mr. Nicklaus.

“The potential irreparable harm that Nicklaus Companies faced had Mr. Nicklaus’s unauthorized activities not been abandoned has been highlighted by the continued statements made by the PGA Tour and various leading Tour players and the substantial negative news coverage criticizing Phil Mickelson’s involvement as a paid endorser of the Saudi-backed golf league. If not for the efforts of Nicklaus Companies, Mr. Nicklaus could have been pilloried in the news media for accepting payment for what could be characterized as betraying the PGA Tour."

This whole thing is really very predictable as far as who the players are. I mean all of the “big names “that left the PGA are all guys that are either washed up or have expressed a dislike of the PGA, or others have expressed a dislike of them. Even Greg Norman is a PGA outsider compared to his peers

The argument that Saudi’s are so bad does not fit well with Nicklaus desiging a course in Qiddiya right now.
