Dustin Johnson gives the most DJ-like response ever during LIV Golf interview

Dustin Johnson gave the most Dustin Johnson-like response when pressed for comment on the PGA Tour's new $3 billion investment with the Strategic Sports Group (SSG). 

Johnson, who bolted from the PGA Tour to join the LIV Golf League at the very start in the summer of 2022, was speaking to the media ahead of this week's second event of the LIV Golf season in Las Vegas. 

The PGA Tour's new deal with SSG - led by Liverpool FC owners Fenway Sports Group - will see an initial contribution of $1.5 billion poured into the North America circuit.

SSG has also helped to fund the launch of PGA Tour Enterprises, a new commercial venture for the PGA Tour will give "close to 200 members" an opportunity to become equity holders in the circuit.

A new memo sent to PGA Tour players on Wednesday outlined how the cash will be allocated to players, with four distinct groups having been drawn up. 

It is also understood the agreement between SSG and the PGA Tour will still allow for "co-investment" from the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) in the future.

Talks between the PGA Tour, DP World Tour and PIF are said to remain headed in the right direction, albeit the deadline has been extended from 31 December 2023 to just before The Masters. 

Try telling Jordan Spieth, though. 

Spieth's comments have seen Rory McIlroy storm out the PGA Tour's group chat. 

But what does LIV Golf's Johnson, who has earned just shy of $100m in PGA Tour earnings, make of the latest $3 billion investment into the PGA Tour. 

Not very much to be frank. 

Johnson, who is known as one of the most laidback golfers in the world, said: 

Fair enough, DJ.

Anything else you would like to add? 

The former World No.1 then said he hopes the PGA Tour and LIV Golf can work together one day in the future. Johnson concluded: 

Johnson left the PGA Tour to join the LIV Golf League in the summer of 2022 for a reported fee of $200m. 

Will the PGA Tour and LIV Golf ever work together, or will the deal collapse as a result of the PGA Tour's deal with SSG? Share your thoughts and comments over on the GolfMagic social media channels.
