Tiger Woods won't be teeing it up at this week's PGA Championship, but he's still making moves-just not the kind fans expected.

The 15-time major winner recently made headlines for an unexpected visit to President Donald Trump. While the meeting raised eyebrows, especially with Woods sidelined due to injury, it turns out the stop wasn't about politics or pleasantries. It was about golf-specifically, the high-stakes tug-of-war between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf.
