‘Jay [Monahan] Has to Go’: Golf Community Livid as PGA Tour Pro Faces Career-Ending Fate Over LIV Golf Ties

2 min read

Wesley Bryan’s decision to participate in the LIV Duels event in Miami has landed him in hot water with the PGA Tour. Bryan confirmed to Monday Q Info that he has been suspended for his involvement in the LIV event, marking a harsh consequence for the rising star. The suspension comes at a time when tensions between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf have reached new heights.

In his conversation with Monday Q, Bryan addressed his time on tour, expressing no regrets about his LIV appearance, but revealing uncertainty about what lies ahead. Fans, however, aren’t taking the news lightly. Many have rallied behind the suspended golfer, flooding social media with calls for his reinstatement under the hashtag #FreeWesley.

The situation is further complicated by criticism of PGA Tour leadership. As one fan pointed out, “How good is this? Jay Monahan suspends Wesley Bryan for playing in the LIV Duels, then—without missing a beat—hands Grant Horvat, who also played in the Duels, an invite to a legit PGA event. One of the worst leaders in the history of business.” Another added, “The PGA Tour is making a bad decision here. This is the kind of stuff that could turn people off on the PGA Tour, and with LIV actually having a real broadcast network now, viewers could find their way to LIV.”
