(Reuters) - Olympic champion Xander Schauffele has become the latest high-profile player to commit to the American-based PGA Tour, saying the proposed Saudi-funded breakaway league is not close to a "finished product".

Four-times major champion Brooks Koepka, former world number one Dustin Johnson and several other top players have turned down the Super Golf League (SGL) project.
