The Issue: The PGA Tour’s announcement that it is merging with LIV Golf, a Saudi Arabia-backed tour.
The Saudi Arabian dictatorship seems to be gaining more power every week (“It’s money over morals,” Sports, June 7).
Our government’s ally Saudi Arabia has re-established diplomatic relations with Iran. The Saudis recently cut oil production, which means an increase in oil prices.
And now the Saudi-backed LIV Golf is merging with the PGA Tour.
The Biden administration should stand up to this dictatorship, instead of allowing its leaders to gain more power and influence.

I’ll never watch golf again. The merger is just wrong. What about 9/11 and the murder of Jamal Khashoggi?
I guess I will also have to stop watching Formula 1 racing, since they are racing so often in the Middle East. So disappointed!

So the folks in Saudi Arabia, who brought us 9/11 and the slaughter of 3,000 innocent Americans, are now merged with America’s golfing crown jewel.
Saudi’s murderous Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s next targets are likely the NBA, NFL and MLB.
Soon we will all have to fly to this dusty outhouse of a country to enjoy America’s pastimes.

I guess it’s all about the money to PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan.
Taking money from the Saudi government and merging the PGA with LIV Golf is the most disgusting and disrespectful thing one can do.
You, Monahan, have slapped the people who lost their loved ones on 9/11. I was a lieutenant in the FDNY and responded to 9/11, and I was one of the lucky ones who survived.
I lost a lot of firefighter friends that day, and their loved ones are extremely upset with this merger. Shame on you, Monahan.

I am not surprised that Monahan accepted blood money and stepped on the memories of those who perished in the 9/11 attack.
Time to treat the PGA Tour like Bud Light.

The winners: PGA Tour, LIV Golf and golf fans. The loser: morality.
Character should count, but that seems to be an archaic position.

The Issue: Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign for Democratic nominee in the 2024 presidential election.
While Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will most likely not win the Democratic nomination, his presence poses a problem for President Biden (“Why RFK Has the Bidenites Worried,” Editorial, June 7).
No incumbent needs a primary fight, and history has examples of how this can impact the general election.
Gerald Ford vs. Ronald Reagan in 1976, Jimmy Carter vs. Ted Kennedy in 1980 and George Bush vs. Pat Buchanan in 1992, to name a few.
While none of the challengers won the nomination, each incumbent went on to lose in November after having to deal with a difficult primary.
RFK Jr.’s insurgent campaign has become a thorn in Biden’s side.

I doubt that RFK Jr. has anyone worried about winning anything.
Aside from his crazy views on vaccines, Big Pharma and Russia, his voice has all the indicators of serious throat and vocal-cord problems. Ask any doctor.
He would have enormous difficulty serving as our president. If one cannot speak with ease, that is an insurmountable liability.
