In his exclusive interview with The i Paper, Lee Westwood talked about various problems on the golf scene, analyzing things and having interesting points of view. The famous golfer put a special accent on the negotiations between the PIF and the PGA Tour, having a lot of question marks over his head. 

The English golfer specifically referred to the role of Donald Trump in these negotiations, feeling that although Trump is a passionate lover of golf, he is not a person who can change the stubbornness of the PGA Tour, which does not want to take important steps towards unification.

“He’s a keen golfer but I don’t think he has that kind of influence. What can he do? He can’t force the PGA Tour to make a deal. I don’t think the PGA Tour want the deal. To do a deal both sides have to move on a few things but I don’t think they want that.”- he said.

Lee Westwood on LIV Golf’s format

The experienced name of this sport drew a parallel between the LIV Golf 54-hole format and the PGA Tour format. Although many fans and experts explain that such a system is not functional, Westwood disagrees with them. 

He believes that it is the same feeling to perform at Saudi-backed Tour events, just like at others. Lee put an accent on the aggressiveness of golfers in the LIV format, mentioning some of the names that really have that aggressiveness factor that is needed to perform at LIV Golf.

“It feels exactly the same as it does contending in any tournament. The difference at LIV is you only have three rounds. You can’t ease your way into a tournament the way you can over 72 holes. You have to come out fast. You used to have three rounds to catch up, now you have only two. That’s a huge difference.

The guys are much more aggressive. There is no hitting an iron down the fairway. You have to go for everything. You see the guys at the top of the leaderboard, the likes of Brooks, Rahm, Waco [Joaquin Niemann] and Tyrrell, these guys go for everything, there is no backing off.”- he concluded.

The Englishman hopes that the problems on the golf scene will be resolved, given that he himself has felt the consequences on his skin. As someone who has played on the DP World Tour and the Ryder Cup for years, Lee has been deprived of such an incredible experience. However, things have not seemed to move from a dead point for some time.
