The constant floating of ideas to get LIV Golf and the PGA Tour back on the same page has become tiresome to some but Phil Mickelson appears to have stumbled upon what he believes is a great idea.
Mickelson has been one of the most vocal critics of the PGA Tour since he made the move to LIV and the six-time major winner remains open with his opinions on matters to this day.
With no sign of any potential deal being done despite Donald Trump getting involved at one point, golf is still stuck with two tours not aligned.
Throw in the DP World Tour stuck somewhere in the middle of all this, and it’s clear golf is a mess.
However, in one of his more active days on social media platform, X, Phil Mickelson seems to have found something he very much likes the sound of.

Phil Mickelson backs idea to bring PGA Tour and LIV Golf together
There have been some wild suggestions over the years but ultimately, we are no closer to anything being done.
Golf analysts, players and fans of the game have all thrown their ideas over what to do into the mix but in the end, most have fallen flat.
However, after coming across an idea from a fan on social media, Mickelson believes there could be something in it.
The suggestion of the best players in the world battling it out to play in a select number of events over the season is something to consider.
However, as with most ideas about a LIV and PGA merger, this will no doubt leave those players who aren’t always close to winning as the big losers.
For the big players who compete at the top end regularly, any plan in the future will benefit them.
But for those who simply do well enough to make a good living from golf, these sorts of ideas impact them massively in terms of earnings.
Golf might end up staying just as it is
We’re approaching the four year mark now when it comes to LIV and the PGA Tour splitting and in all honesty, are things really that bad?
Sure, we see some big events lacking a bit of star power and LIV still struggling to attract the audiences it might want through TV.
But in the main, it’s created opportunities for those who might normally not have them and subsequently, we also get a bit of head to head needle in the majors too.
For now, there’s simply no rush to make a deal and the PGA Tour probably know it. For the first time since the split, it does feel like the PGA holds more cards than LIV.
