Wyndham Clark addresses LIV Golf Rumors after Pebble Beach win

Clark moved to world No 6, with the American revealing after his victory details surrounding his conversations with LIV Golf and why he rejected their advances.
"I definitely met with LIV and went through those discussions," Clark said after his victory. "I wanted to see what they could bring to the table. I ultimately declined going to LIV because I felt like I still have a lot of things left in the tank on the PGA Tour and I wanted to chase records, I wanted to chase world ranking.
"My dream is to try to be one of the top players in the world, if not the top player. I just grew up always imagining winning PGA Tour events. So ultimately, I chose my legacy over LIV…that's really what it came down to.
"I don't know what the future holds with my career and what the PGA Tour and LIV is going to do, but at least for this season I am 100 per cent set on the PGA Tour and I want to try to get to as high in the world as I possibly can."
"I did my due diligence," Clark explained. "I felt like if I was going to make a life-changing decision, I wanted to make sure I did all the right things and call the right people, get the right information, understand what both tours are doing, what I should do.

One of two things
He simply didn’t get his money he wanted
Or
Things don’t look good with the merger for LIV and OWGR at all and that was important to him
(Or a mix of both I suppose)

Or what he said was exactly what he meant. So that's three now? Spin that.

What’s there to spin? LIV is paying guys out the arse. Most everyone will listen to offers for that kind of money and evaluate the decision.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what he said or anything surprising.

Fwiw, he is qualified for all majors for 5 years so I’m a little surprised he stayed because OWGR isn’t as important for him as other guys.

Legacy and ranking are important and LIv doesn’t have that

Saw in an interview today being #1 in the world is a huge goal of his
So that could have been part of his due diligence as he said. Finding out just how possible it would be for liv to get points in the future

Good news for him. A majority of the best players are playing on the LIV tour now so him and others will skyrocket up the rankings with substandard PGA events.

I am glad he made the choice he did.. and he has already added to his legacy in golf history because of it.

My take is that he stays on the PGA Tour this year so he can try and get the #1 designation or close to it. The PIF would pay top dollar for the #1 player on the PGA Tour next year so keep moving up to financially leverage yourself upwards in 10 months.
