LIV Golf members can compete in the 2023 PGA Championship

LIV Golf members will be permitted to play in the 2023 PGA Championship, according to the PGA of America, the tournament’s governing body.

On Wednesday, the PGA of America released its eligibility criteria for this year’s championship—which will be held at Oak Hill in Rochester, N.Y., from May 18-21.

CEO Seth Waugh acknowledged the ongoing PGA Tour vs. LIV Golf divide, but reiterated that the PGA Championship’s goal is to put on a competitive tournament with an appropriately strong field.

“Our decisions are always based on what’s in the best interest of the PGA of America and conducting the best Championship possible,” Waugh said.
