They say time heals all wounds, but PGA Tour veteran Lucas Glover may not know that old saying.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Or, more likely, doesn\u2019t care to buy into it when it comes to those who defected from the PGA Tour to LIV Golf.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite calls from some of golf\u2019s biggest stars \u2014 and even from the White House \u2014 Glover isn\u2019t interested in playing against anyone who left to play in LIV.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The PGA Tour and the rebel golf league have remained in a state of stalemate as the two sides have attempted to broker peace in the golf world and unify the two circuits.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to play with them, me personally,\u201d Glover, who shot a 1-over 72 in the first round at the John Deere, said on his SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio show before the tournament. \u201cI don\u2019t think they should be back here. I don\u2019t want them here. They made their decision. I don\u2019t blame any of them. They made a decision, I don\u2019t care, but they also went away from this tour and chose to. As a PGA Tour player and somebody that dreamed of playing on the PGA Tour, and have poured my heart and soul into this Tour and game for 21 seasons now, I don\u2019t want somebody that chose another path and a path of least, or, less resistance.<\/p>\n

Stalled negotiations have led to a stalemate in reunification talks in men\u2019s pro golf<\/p>\n

Lucas Glover says he\u2019s \u201chaving a hard time with it” and grapples with the different perspectives on what’s next for the PGA TOUR on “The Lucas Glover Show:”<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want them back here competing and taking part of my pie and these kids\u2019 pie that are trying to make it now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Though the six-time PGA Tour winner may not like the idea, speaking from a more objective standpoint, he acknowledged that having LIV stars such as Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm back on the Tour would be a boost when negotiating television rights.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would benefit all of us because our TV deal in 2030 would be great,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Glover is currently ranked 46th in the world and 31st in FedEx Cup rankings.<\/p>\n
