Americans Have Not WD'd From European Tour's Middle East Events, But That Was Before...
/Joel Beall reports for GolfDigest.com that, as of Tuesday morning, the likes of Koepka, DeChambeau, Johnson, Mickelson, Reed and other top stars had not withdrawn from any of the European Tour’s upcoming Middle East events.
But, that was before Iran sent ballistic missiles toward American troops in Iraq and also threatened to “unleash Hezbollah” on Dubai, home to the Dubai Desert Classic, January 23-26.
Given that the events offer significant appearance fees, we’ll see just how determined these players are to head overseas for pay.
Bryson DeChambeau, while playing Twitch, Twitching, Being A Twitcherer—please, I have no idea and won’t try to figure it out—says he’s “really not sure” now about his planned trip.
