Behind the golf’s backway league is the Saudi Public Investment Fund, with a net worth of around $800 billion. This huge fund is governed strong and goal-driven mastermind, Yasir Al-Rumayyan. PIF’s governor has made a mark in every household that has a liking for the game of golf, ever since LIV Golf’s launch. His influence on sports and the entire sports fraternity does not just end with golf.

Al-Rumayyan has recently topped the charts of the most influential people in the sports business this year by ranking first on the list. This has blown away everyone’s mind in the golf world. Merger or no merger, Rumayyan has truly made a personal record like no other through his calculated move.

It is not just his moves on the global golf scene that have driven change. LIV Golf’s governor has also displayed key interest in shaping the scene in soccer, combat sports, motorsports, and other prominent sports. His initiatives in the sports world are why the Sports Business Journal gave him an honorary position.

Thanks to Saudi Arabia’s limitless sovereign wealth, Al-Rumayyan has expanded his sight to even Formula One and eSports. Even though none of these sports have seen the Saudi effect quite as closely as golf. It is estimated that it is only a matter of time before PIF’s governor spreads his influence on the larger sports scene.

His record-breaking merger idea has truly opened previously closed gates for him. But what’s the final decision on the PIF-PGA Tour merger?
