World No. five golfer Patrick Cantlay talks about the current PGA-LIV tour limbo ahead of The Sentry in Kapalua, Hawaii this weekend.
The PGA Tour and LIV Tour are trying to hammer out a deal following an agreement to a three-way merger with DP World Tour.
Negotiations were supposed to be concluded at the end of last year, but have now been extended into 2024.
Cantlay, whose caddie clashed with Rory McIlroy at the 2023 Ryder Cup, also spoke about his reaction to the incident.

Just don’t think it’ll help I think uh you know it’s expected that people will have different perspectives and so if people have different perspectives that’s perfectly fine because that’s what makes the world so exciting
