Although the parties will remain three distinct market entities, they have decided to consolidate their commercial activities and draw together from Saudi Arabia's vast wealth in a new period of cooperation.

After qualifying on the sixth hole of a playoff Monday, LIV Golf rebel Carlos Ortiz snuck into the US Open. Golfers from around the world and Canada were competing for a spot in the US Open at Los Angeles Country Club on Monday on June 15 over 36 holes. Ortiz, who jumped ship to Saudi-backed LIV, was keen to participate in the big championship the old fashioned way, and he did well. In the meantime, a repeat of the PGA Championship's Block Party was not meant to be. Michael Block, a club professional who stole the hearts of fans at Oak Hill with his tied-15 finish, and his 18-year-old son Dylan failed in their efforts to make it a family affair in the third major of the year.
