However, the spokespersons from the PIF were absent along with the LIV CEO Greg Norman. Even the PGAT Commissioner Jay Monahan was not present at the gathering. Despite all this, the hearing took place as scheduled. It exposed many eye-popping information.

Among the revelations, one of the major uncoverings starred Rory McIlroy and his meeting with PIF chairperson Yasir Al-Rumayyan. The disclosure came forward in the form of a long email that was sent to Jimmy Dunne (the policy board member who helped broker the deal). The email came from Roger Devlin, a British Businessman who had been sought out by Yasir Al-Rumayyan probably to settle the differences between the opposing groups.

In accordance with this communication, Golf.com presented that one of the discussed concerns was a business outlook.

Prior to these shocking yet anticipated revelations, Pawan Kant Munjal was captured on the greens at LIV Golf London.
