St Albans, England | It was only after they hit their first shots on Thursday that the professional golfers taking part in the new Saudi-financed LIV Golf Invitational Series would have learnt how high the stakes they were playing for really were.
Moments after the players set off down the fairway for the first time at the exclusive Centurion Club, located just outside London, the PGA Tour suspended 17 of them and declared they were “no longer eligible to participate” in events on the American-based tour, or any of its affiliates.
