Potential Congressional Hearings on Golf Mergers and Monopolies

A Congressional hearing on the LIV Golf-PGA Tour merger could happen “within weeks,” according to Sen. Richard Blumenthal. The merger, announced earlier this month, has prompted outcry from political leaders and activists, and from 9/11 families, who have criticized the LIV Golf tour for its ties to the Saudi royal family. Blumenthal, the chair of a Homeland Security investigative subcommittee, launched a probe into the controversial deal on Monday, demanding leaders submit scores of records related to the merger June 26.
