“Parent trap”; “Embarrassing” – Fans roast Billy Horschel for his reaction to PGA Tour chief and PIF governor embracing

PGA Tour chief Jay Monahan and PIF governor Yasir Al-Rumayyan are currently in action at the Pro-Am event on the DP World Tour. Amidst talk of a merger between the PGA Tour and PIF, Monahan and Al-Rumayaan were spotted embracing each other, and images of the same went viral on social media.

However, since these images went viral, another aspect about them has also been making rounds; professional golfer Billy Horschel's reaction to their hug. Horschel could be seen with a smile in the background in the images.

Fans posted interesting reactions to Horschel's reaction to the embrace between the PGA Tour chief and PIF governor. Patrick McDonald from CBS Golf posted a funny comment regarding this picture on his X handle. He wrote:

These are some more comments on Horschel's reaction:

"Please do not make a deal with LIV. That exhibition league is toxic garbage," a user wrote.

"Rich people hanging out," another user wrote.

"Embarrassing." one user wrote.

"Billy is a legend," wrote a user.

"He is aiming for the Nobel Peace Prize." a user wrote.

Amidst the embrace at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, it's important to note that the PGA Tour and PIF are yet to agree on a merger. After a framework agreement was announced in June last year, the two parties failed to finalize terms within the set deadline.
