Top American golfer Collin Morikawa on Tuesday stated that he will remain on the PGA Tour events rather than switching to the Saudi-backed Super Golf League (SGL), saying the tour is “where I belong”. He further mentioned that he thinks about playing against the legendary Tiger Woods and beating his records.

The two-time major champion and the World No 2 made the remarks ahead of this week’s Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles.

As it goes to the Saudi stuff, I’m all for the PGA Tour,” Morikawa said during an interaction with Reuters.

He added: “I’ve thought about playing against Tiger, beating his records, whatever, something that might not even be breakable, but I’ve never had another thought of what’s out there, right? I’ve never thought about anything else, it’s always been the PGA Tour.”

“Need concrete evidence to think about other tournaments”

The California native Morikawa also commented on if he had received a huge money offer from the SGL, being fronted by former golfer Greg Norman. He didn’t completely sideline the idea of jumping tours but wanted to get answers to some of his questions.

Right now, you look at the best players that I see and they’re all sticking with the PGA Tour and that’s where I kind of stay and that’s where I belong. I’m very happy to be here,” Morikawa added.

“The only way I can start thinking about other tours, other leagues, whatever you call it, I need concrete evidence. I need to be able to see a sheet in front of me and know what’s out there, right? And as of now, for what I know, I don’t know what’s out there. All I’ve heard are rumours, all I’ve heard is talk and that’s hard to do, right?”
