US DOJ to investigate PGA Tour-LIV Golf pact - WSJ

The U.S. Justice Department has notified the PGA Tour that it will review its planned deal with Saudi-backed LIV Golf for antitrust concerns, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The PGA Tour, DP World Tour and rival Saudi-backed LIV circuit, which had been involved in a bitter fight that split the sport, announced an agreement last week to merge and form one unified commercial entity.
