Xander Schauffele trusts PGA Tour chief Jay Monahan ‘a lot less’ after LIV deal

• Monahan returns on Monday after break on medical grounds
• Schauffele: I'd say he has a lot of tough questions to answer'

Jay Monahan will return to his office on Monday with the whiff of revolt in the air after Xander Schauffele, the world No 6, said he and other golfers have trust issues with the PGA Tour commissioner. Schauffele highlighted a split between the players and the Tour's leadership.

Monahan took a break from work on medical grounds shortly after last month's announcement that the PGA Tour and DP World Tour had reached a shock agreement with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. Schauffele is among PGA Tour players who rebuffed overtures from LIV Golf - which is funded by the Saudis - while under pressure from Monahan and his board to remain loyal to golf's traditional ecosystem.
