Rory McIlroy says he would rather `retire´ than play LIV ゴルフ events

Rory McIlroy has made it abundantly (疑いを)晴らす how he felt about short-lived 提案s that he and Tiger 支持を得ようと努めるd could own LIV ゴルフ teams and play in at least 10 events a season.

“If LIV ゴルフ was the last place to play ゴルフ on earth I would retire. That’s how I feel about it,” McIlroy said after an 開始 64 in the Genesis Scottish Open.

McIlroy was speaking to the written 圧力(をかける) for the first time since 文書s were 解放(する)d on Tuesday as part of a US 上院 sub-委員会 審理,公聴会 on the 枠組み 協定 between the PGA 小旅行する, DP World 小旅行する and Saudi Arabia’s Public 投資 基金 (PIF), which bankrolls LIV ゴルフ.

Before the 協定 was reached, PCP 資本/首都 Partners gave a 贈呈 to two PGA 小旅行する 公式の/役人s する権利を与えるd “The Best of Both Worlds” that featured the McIlroy and 支持を得ようと努めるd 提案 as part of a 非常に長い wish-名簿(に載せる)/表(にあげる) which 含むd PIF 知事 Yasir Al-Rumayyan becoming a member of the R&A and Augusta 国家の.

Neither had any chance of success even if McIlroy ? who said he still “hated” LIV when the 枠組み 協定 was 発表するd ? has now taken a step 支援する from his 役割 as the biggest 支持する of the PGA 小旅行する.

“There’s やめる a bit of apathy に向かって everything at the moment,” McIlroy said.

“There wasn’t a lot of new (警察などへの)密告,告訴(状) there for me (in the 上院 審理,公聴会), there maybe was for other people, but as I said, I’ve almost been too の近くに to it over the last year and a bit so it’s nice to be able to try to distance myself a bit from it.

“I think I’m apathetic to all the noise around it and as long as the tournaments that I play keep on 存在するing I’ll be very happy to play them and be a professional golfer and try to get a little bit closer every day to trying to master my (手先の)技術.

“The thing that I’ve realised is, no 事柄 what I do or say or try to show leadership, I’m going to be just 罰金.

“I’ve tried to step up for maybe the guys that didn’t have a 発言する/表明する 早期に on, but I think with everything that’s transpired over the last few weeks the players are going to find themselves more and more at the (米)棚上げする/(英)提議する to try to get whatever that is they want out of it.

“Again, as long as I get to play the ゴルフ that I’ve known over the last 15 years of my career, I’ll be happy.”

Asked if the PGA 小旅行する had failed to show the same 忠義 to him as he, and other players, had to it, McIlroy 追加するd: “I don’t know about that.

“I think they were trying to do what was 権利 for the 小旅行する, which in turn means what’s 権利 for the players on that 小旅行する.

“I think I read a 引用する they were 交渉するing their 生き残り. So I think that’s a very fair thing for a 商売/仕事 to do.”
