Donald Trump has made a dramatic about-face on the future of LIV Golf players, now calling for their return to the PGA Tour. The man who once branded the PGA Tour "stupid" and "disloyal" is singing a very different tune these days.

Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump weighed in on the brewing golf civil war just as Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund confirmed it would stop funding LIV beyond 2026. The president made it clear he wants to see the sport's biggest stars competing together again.

"I do believe that all of the golfers should be playing – the great golfers – should be playing against each other," Trump said. "I want to see Rory playing Bryson DeChambeau. I want to see 'Big' Jon Rahm playing Scottie Scheffler. They're great players. There's something nice about all of the players playing together."

The timing is telling. This week, the PGA Tour is holding one of its signature events, the Cadillac Championship, at Trump's Doral course. It's a stark contrast from the early days of LIV, when Trump urged players to "take the money" and abandon the PGA Tour.

"Now they'll all be accepted by the tour… they'll all be back on tour and it'll be great," he added, signaling a complete reversal of his previous stance.

For context, Trump was LIV's most vocal champion when the Saudi-backed league launched, largely because it brought significant business his way. LIV held tournaments at his Doral course four times and at two other Trump properties. The league still has a tournament scheduled at Trump's Virginia course for May 7-10, though its future remains uncertain.

"I don't know what's happening with LIV, I'm not sure what's happening with LIV," Trump admitted. "But they are playing at my course in two weeks on the Potomac, beautiful course."

As the golf world watches the drama unfold, one thing is clear: the sport's landscape is shifting, and even its most vocal critics are changing their swing.
