Moreover about 30%-40% of entrants in a PGA event do not make the cut and receive nothing. LIV has no cut line. You could shoot 3 x 100 and get the $120,000 minimum.
This is their life's work and why would you play for a winner's share of $1.25M when someone else is offering you $4M? A tie for third gets you $1.25M at an LIV event. Sure, you lose your sponsors, which may only be temporary. And there will be sponsors come along without ties to the PGA.
