(Reuters) - Golfers playing for the PGA Tour have demanded more information about the potential impact of capital tie-ups being discussed, saying they had been "kept entirely in the dark" about the organization's future.

The PGA has announced plans to merge with Saudi-backed rival LIV Golf but has also recently said it would advance discussions with U.S.-based Strategic Sports Group (SSG) which could come in as a co-investor.
