What are the chances the European and US PGA Tour could one day merge?

Question

Wouldn't it be better for the game to have all the best players on the same tour?

Answer 1

Well, you could argue that, but don't forget that at the moment players are free to take part in both tournaments - Rory McIlroy will be competing in US events as well as the European tour. Of course, the argument against that is that it spreads players too thinly, dividing their attention so they fail to shine in either tour. I can't see one giant tour replacing the two most successful tours coming any time soon, though.
