Jan 16 (Reuters) - LIV Golf is ‌losing steam as it has been unable to attract new major signings ‌to its roster while the return of former world number one ‌Brooks Koepka to the PGA Tour is a huge blow for the Saudi-backed circuit, Rory McIlroy said.

Koepka's return, which comes with a hefty price tag, was facilitated by the PGA Tour's "Returning Member Program" when ‍they opened their doors to golfers who have ‍won a major or The Players ‌Championship since 2022.
