ロリー・マキロイは、ジョーダン・スピースが銃撃戦に巻き込まれた時の感情をはっきりと表明した。
Jordan Spath has been criticized for receiving sponsor exemptions to PGA Tour signature events, but Rory Moy has previously made it clear he is all for big names getting invites to tournaments. Jordan Spe has faced backlash for getting sponsorship exemptions to PGA Tour signature events following the addition of the Miami Championship to the schedule, but Rory Moy has backed appeasing tournament sponsors with marquee names. The tour launched signature events in 2024 to boost the circuit’s attractiveness following the emergence of LIIV Golf. While organizers started with eight events, by 2026, there will be nine of these high-profile tournaments, some without cuts that let sponsors invite specific players. Next year, the currently unsponsored Miami Championship will occur between the Masters and PGA Championship at Trump National Doral. This reveal has triggered criticism with tour veterans Robert Garagus and James Han condemning the decision and targeting speed for his exemptions which he got at both the AT&T Pebble Beach ProA and Genesis Invitational last year. Mroy has previously made his position on these pound 15 million purse events clear, saying he supports keeping sponsors happy by having superstars compete as he was among the professionals who helped create them. Speaking to Golf Week following the schedule change, Han said an extra signature event without a title sponsor at a course owned by the president. This is a joke, right? The candid confession challenged the PGA Tours sponsorship choices and the Doral venue’s connections to President Trump. Garagus added, “What is happening to our tour?” So, does that mean one more sponsor invite for Jordan Speath? Tell Spith I’ll play him for any amount he wants. I win. I get his five invites to the signature events. Spe became a target because he ended up outside the FedEx Cup top 50 as the season wound down, meaning he wouldn’t typically qualify to compete in signature events. However, it’s anticipated he will receive sponsor exemptions, which Mroy supports.
