Since the emergence of LIV Golf, the issue of the PGA Tour's and many of its players' reluctance to embrace a global schedule has taken center stage. The issue is nothing new, but the truth is that not even the push for the breakaway league has led the American-based circuit to adopt a different strategy.The PGA Tour has five events outside the United States, not counting the Open Championship (six if you add the Puerto Rico Open). But it's also worth noting that all are smaller events, some opposite others at a higher level, and three of them are part of the so-called FedEx Cup Fall.The common denominator is that these tournaments attract few, if any, of the tour's top players."That's really disappointing," was Sir Nick Faldo's reaction when speaking about the issue during a recent interview with BBC Sport.The legendary player is a firm believer in creating a system that brings the world's best players to a much more international schedule than the one currently in place. As he told BBC Sports, he once thought the PGA Tour might move in that direction."I really did think when we started with the 'global' word a long time ago, probably at least 10 years ago, I thought we were going to lean towards that ..." he said. "America would never give up being number one and, yeah, I think it's a shame.""I thought after the ruckus, the disturbance with LIV coming on board, when they were talking about all that they'd create a real global tour. We should be doing something like that."Faldo's interest isn't in having players play around the world just for the pleasure of watching them. The six-time major champion explained the tremendous impact a global tour would have on fans and sponsors."If the public knew and television knew you had the best 100 players coming to your town or your country, my goodness, how good would that be," he told the BBC. "Rather than saying, 'well, I'm going to have a tournament and I don't really know what I'm going to get'. It's harsh on the sponsors. It really is."The sponsors want to know 'I'm going to get X number of good players and I'm going to have a great event' ... Otherwise, they're going to say, what am I getting out of this?"Currently, this issue presents itself in two very different ways, depending on the player. Although the PGA Tour has a very limited global schedule, most European players do play consistently outside the United States, although they certainly do so mostly in Europe.American players, in contrast, hardly ever play outside their country, much less if they are top players.More Golf: Rory McIlroy Uses Tour Championship Grandstand to Make Closing Birdie
