PGA has treated the players badly for years because it was a monopsony on golf talent. And playing the "Saudis are bad card" is equally hilarious as they simultaneously take money from PRC state-owned-enterprises.
This new rivalry is good for golf and good for the players. And who knows, if the PGA cuts ties with China as a statement that it will be the one not to take blood money, it will be one small step for the good of the world.
