PGA Tour Stars Condemn Journalist's Controversial Opinions and Personal Attacks
Golfers Justin Thomas, Rickie Fowler, Adam Scott, and Will Zalatoris have come to the defense of Patrick Cantlay after journalist Eamon Lynch accused him of rallying players against the PGA Tour's agreement with the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund. Scott initially criticized Lynch's article on Instagram, questioning its place in the debate, while Cantlay expressed confusion rather than anger about the pending deal. Cantlay serves as a director on the PGA Tour's Player Advisory Council, and the support from fellow council members Scott, Fowler, and Zalatoris suggests that other players likely back Cantlay as well.
