LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Good morning from brisk, gray Kentucky, where the PGA Championship is two days away. Today, the conversations will take center stage: Tiger Woods, Brooks Koepka, Scottie Scheffler and many others are slated to speak, as well as the PGA’s leaders.
A certain topic of conversation: The news that Jimmy Dunne, one of the architects of the surprise “framework agreement” of last June that ended hostilities between the PGA Tour and Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, has resigned from his PGA Tour post. Dunne cited “no meaningful progress” as a reason for his departure, which comes as frustrating news for anyone wanting to see golf unified again at more events than just the majors. Any chance for unification now likely won’t happen until the 2026 season, if it happens at all.
