[QUOTE="Niblick, post: 575186, member: 4505"] As of now they are banned from playing on the PGA Tour. Ian Poulter, a European playing on the PGA Tour is filing a lawsuit but I've not read yet about the details involved. The U.S. Open is a yearly tournament that is not ruled by the PGA Tour. Its sole purpose is to bring together the best golfers (professional and ametuer) through a qualifing process. Some players gain exemption by winning certain tournaments or being in a top percentage on professional tours throughout the world. The banned players will also be invited to the Master's next year assuming they qualified for it since that tournament is separate from the PGA Tour also. I did read that the offer Tiger Woods turned down was for 750 million. Dustin Johnson is getting paid 125 million, Bryson DeChambou 100 million, Patrick Reed 50 million, Phil Mickelson 200 million etc. Greg Norman has like a 4 billion dollar start up budget to get the players and the tour going.
