"A penny for the thoughts of the PGA Tour hierarchy, who awoke in Ponte Vedra Beach to news of a LIV duel in Dubai. A penny for the thoughts of LIV's office bearers, who had information they would presumably rather remain private put into the public domain by the new Desert Classic champion. Patrick Reed emerged from the joust, thereby delivering a reminder that he remains among the finest golfers in the world."
"The DP World Tour continues to accommodate LIV rebels, which can lead to eye-catching scenarios such as the one that played out on the Majilis Course. With the PGA Tour now bullish about seeing off LIV and its Saudi Arabian riches, a theory endorsed by Brooks Koepka's recent swapping of domains, it is hardly a leap of faith to suggest those in Florida might ask the DP World Tour to reassess tournament entry rules if the dollars are to keep flowing across the Atlantic."
Patrick Reed won the Desert Classic in Dubai by defeating David Puig and showcased that he remains among golf's top players. David Puig faded late, was overtaken by Andy Sullivan into third, and later received a two-stroke penalty for grounding his club in a bunker behind the 18th green, dropping him to a tie for seventh. The DP World Tour continues to allow LIV members to compete, producing situations where LIV players can earn prize money underpinned in part by a PGA Tour agreement. The PGA Tour may push the DP World Tour to tighten entry criteria while Reed says his LIV deal is not yet finalised.
