    A truce between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf ended with LIV’s signing of Jon Rahm for a reported $600 million. The move comes as the PGA Tour and Saudi Arabia’s Permanent Investment Fund, which backs LIV, are approaching a Dec. 31 deadline to strike a deal on a new company. Barstool Sports’ Dan Rapaport joins to discuss the implications for the future of golf.

    Plus, with the MLS Cup on Saturday, former MLS and Premier League player Eddie Lewis joins to discuss the state of the league and how it has progressed since the arrival of his former teammate, David Beckham.
