\t\t\t\tCourt documents show one PGA Tour star secretly signed for LIV Golf, only to have a late change of heart\u2026<\/p>\n
Life is full of sliding doors moments. A few of those, in the money-crazed bubble of golf at least, came in the summer of 2022 shortly after the civil war that would rip the sport apart ignited.<\/p>\n
A number of stars, some rising and others fading, had to decide whether to accept unimaginable riches and join the controversial Saudi-backed LIV Golf Invitational, as it was known then, or relent and remain with the PGA Tour. Four years on, those decisions have had lasting impacts upon careers and \u2013 to a lesser extent \u2013 legacies.<\/p>\n
However, it is impossible to predict just how consequential a move to LIV would have been to the career trajectory of one of the very best players in the world. <\/p>\n
At the time, LIV\u2019s interest in Cam Young was well known.<\/p>\n
His breakthrough year in 2022 had included top five finishes at both the PGA Championship and The Open<\/a>. A PGA Tour win was surely around the corner. <\/p>\n But Young was seriously interested in ditching the PGA Tour for LIV, and it has been revealed in recent bankruptcy filings just how close the American was to crossing the divide. <\/p>\n
