  • Keith Pelley, Chief Executive of the D.P. World Tour joins us with this fast breaking story.
  • Keith, we appreciate your time.
  • Keith, how did we get here?
  • How did we get here?
  • Well, I can tell you that it's not really how we got here.
  • The fact is that we that we got here.
  • And the fact that I love that quote there by Padraig Carrington, that it is is good for the cohesion of the of the global game.
  • And so I'm thrilled with the announcement today to be partners with the the Public Investment Fund and PIF, who we would have been partners with.
  • We brought them into the game in 2018 as we started the Saudi International in 2019.
  • And then we've enjoyed such a wonderful relationship with the PGA Tour.
  • Now for us to be involved in this new venture with them that will see us grow collective revenue, which is great for all our members, is is a phenomenal opportunity for us at the D.P. World Tour.
  • And and I would say, Damon, when you ask how we got there, I'd say I think we got there by using the art of confidentiality.
  • And I'll stay with that of that art and and not tell you exactly how things transpired.
  • But is the fact is that we did get there.
  • Well, the mystery and the intrigue certainly has our attention.
  • Keith, George Savaric is here and talking with D.P. World Tour members.
  • It seemed like this was a potential opportunity for the D.P. World Tour going back two, three, four years ago.
  • So why now?
  • Well, I think we we looked very closely at the opportunity with the then called the PGL.
  • And we looked at the PGA Tour at the same time and we we chose to to stay.
  • What we do was on the right side of history with the PGA Tour that have been around for 50 plus years and a
  • Partner of ours for so long and such a strong partner in so many different ways, whether it be the the World Golf Hall of Fame or whether it be the the World Golf Championships.
  • And and now the the ability to put both of them together and to have the PGA Tour and PIF together just is is incredible.
  • It ends the divisiveness of the game.
  • It's it's a phenomenal opportunity for our members.
  • Somebody just just walked in, as we mentioned it to the staff just an hour ago and said the opportunities are so great for the tour and and the list is endless of what we can do together.
  • And that's what we're looking at.
  • We're looking we're looking forward, not backwards, George.
  • And there's a lot to be excited about.
  • Keith, I imagine your phone's been buzzing quite a bit today.
  • What do you say to the players who stayed loyal to the DP World Tour over the last couple of years who didn't chase the dollars in now are saying, wait a second, what about me?
  • I'm two years older than I was.
  • Well, I think, you know, as as you know, we've we've enforced our rules and regulations that we're allowed to by the decision by sports resolution and that will continue.
  • You know, the the players have been sanctioned.
  • They are welcome to come back, providing that they pay their fines and serve their suspensions.
  • Nothing's nothing's really changed.
  • So that's what I would say to all those members.
  • You're saying those suspensions will be upheld, what, through the end of 2023, what will the reassimilation process be like for Ian Poulter, Ali Westwood or some of those other guys, Henrik Stenson going forward?
  • Yeah, George, as as the press as the press release states that, you know, after the 2023 season, the PIF, the PGA Tour and us will work very closely together to try to find a way to to allow those players that wish to rejoin the tour.
  • And that's that is that is also an important word because some of them may not want to rejoin the tour at that particular time.
  • We will look at it, but in in in the back of our mind and in the forefront of our decision will be be our rules and regulations.
  • So it will it'll be something that will require a tremendous amount of thought and and conversation over the coming months with with our partners in in the PIF and the PGA Tour.
  • But it's it's not as simple as saying that that they will be able to come back without any consequences.
  • And reading the release, the Public Investment Fund, they have a innovative approach to value creation is what it said for the DP World Tour and the PGA Tour.
  • Sketch that out for the average golf fan.
  • What's that going to look like five years down the road?
  • Well, I think I think it just just take your imagination, George, and and think about what is the best for the consumer and what is the best for all our stakeholders, all our broadcasters and everyone involved in the professional game.
  • And now you have the opportunity to bring these three entities together.
  • You know, the the the Public Investment Fund and the the access to the the capital that they have is is a real strong benefit.
  • You look at the PGA Tour with the history and the tradition, just just just watching this week at the Memorial, 40,000 fans there on Sunday as as Victor Hovland walked up the 18th, it was just magical.
  • I think putting us all together really spells a massive opportunity.
  • And it really is how creative you are and how big your imagination is, because I think five years down the road will look completely different as a professional game.
  • But I think it'll be considerably stronger.
  • Keith, as you mentioned, you brought Saudi Arabia to the game of golf at the Saudi International a few years ago, you know, put two and two together.
  • How important was the DP World Tours role then in brokering this merger?
  • But again, once again, Damien, in terms of how the the merger was brokered is is is somewhat irrelevant.
  • The fact is that the merger has been brokered.
  • You know, we were an important participant.
  • We certainly know both parties, know both parties very well in terms of of the PIF and have great respect for Yasser, His Excellency, and his unwavering passion and commitment to the game.
  • You know, he's shown that he started that back in 2018 and saw that very early.
  • And and obviously the PGA Tour and Jay Monahan, you know, and Ed Hurley and Jimmy Dunn, the entire board of the PGA Tour, have created an unbelievable product and have been terrific partners for us.
  • So I think we were a really, really felt privileged to be to be part of these discussions and part of this new entity.
  • And I think that we we having played in 45 different countries over three tours on an some great experience that we can bring to this this new this new entity and this new merger of of our commercial entities.
  • Keith, it's Rich Lerner from Los Angeles to fully understand that money and geopolitics are extremely powerful forces and they're at work here to those who would be uncomfortable with or affected by Saudi Arabia's human rights abuses in the past.
  • And I'm thinking about the family of the murder journalist Jamal Khashoggi or the families of September 11th.
  • What would you or could you say to them as you go forward in this new enterprise that would alleviate the concerns they they no doubt would have?
  • Rich, Rich, I've been consistent with that, that this has never been about human rights for us.
  • We play in in many countries that that you could question some some of the things that that that might happen.
  • We have never mixed sports with politics.
  • We are a members organization.
  • We we brought Gulf Saudi into the game in 2018.
  • They have they have enriched the game over the last three or four years.
  • And that is that has been our that has been our approach.
  • And it's been a consistent approach that we have we have never discussed human rights in terms of our tour.
  • So you don't feel they have a duty in any way to at least express a desire to improve in some of those areas?
  • I again, again, Rich, we I've been consistent that that we we have we've not this is not about human rights for us.
  • Our membership has played in in all different types of countries and we don't miss mix sports with politics.
  • Keith, going forward, we saw the changes that will be implemented after the 23 season into 2024.
  • But what impact will this have on the Ryder Cup for the European side?
  • Well, I don't know if it'll have an impact on the Ryder Cup in the short term to be a Ryder Cup player, you have to be there's a number of things that has to happen.
  • First, you have to be European.
  • Second, you have to be a member of the tour.
  • Third, you have to qualify or fourth, you need to be picked for by by Luke Donald.
  • So I don't think really anything changes.
  • Keith, I know you say you don't want to get into the geopolitics, I'll put that aside, but what makes the Saudis good business partners?
  • Well, I think I think Yasser and his excellent, as I said, has shown an unbelievable commitment and unwavering passion for our game.
  • And and we saw that firsthand in 2019 and 2020 and 2021.
  • And and we, by all means, never, never criticized.
  • We've been very consistent in the fact that we wanted Gulf Saudi to continue to play a role in our game, but we wanted to play inside the ecosystem and inside global infrastructure that has been created for the past 50 years.
  • And and now that's what's happening.
  • Now, the they're doing that.
  • And that that to me is pretty exciting, exciting for for all our members and exciting for all the golf fans globally.
  • Did the PIF's investment into Formula One and their success over the past two or three years, was that a factor in pushing this across the finish line where you thought, OK, the DP World Tour, PGA Tour and PIF combining is now the right move?
  • I don't think we ever, George, had a conversation about Formula One, to be honest.
  • We just focused on our own business.
