LIV Golf suffers setback with Asian Tour joining new alliance with European and PGA tours

The Asian Tour has announced it is joining a new strategic alliance with the PGA Tour and the European Tour, marking a significant development in professional golf's ongoing power struggle. This move is considered a setback for LIV Golf, the Saudi-backed breakaway league, as it further consolidates the establishment tours' global reach and influence. The alliance strengthens the traditional tours' position against LIV Golf's efforts to attract players and partnerships from the Asian golf market.
