That's a good article.  I remember when he disappeared, and the talk was that he quit for the $10 million in insurance money.  I wonder, if he has to pay it back, will he have to pay interest on it?  After all, the insurance company did not have use of that money for the past decade.  At 5% interest compounded annually, it would be $17 million.  

I've always wondered if his quitting had something to do with drugs.  I don't see how anyone would give up a career like he had for any other reason.

I don’t think it was drugs. I’ve never seen anything which pointed in that direction. My take has always been that as injuries began to slow him down, he decided to game Lloyd’s of London rather than suffer financially as his golf earnings dwindled away.

Given his personality, I think he’s perfect for LIV. Plus, they have the means and willingness to settle his insurance debt to bring him on board. Hopefully Rahm’s team picks him up.
