The lawyer who is representing Patrick Reed in his defamation lawsuit against Golf Channel and Brandel Chamblee has two new high-profile targets for more legal proceedings: Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy.

According to a press release posted Wednesday on the Freedom Watch website that he owns, attorney Larry Klayman gave the courts in Florida’s Palm Beach County notice that he would subpoena for deposition of Woods and McIlroy in regards to the players-only meeting that was held prior to the BMW Championship in Wilmington, Delaware, on August 16. The release said Woods is noticed for deposition on September 21, 2022, followed a day later by McIlroy — both in their current hometown of Jupiter, Florida.

At the BMW meeting attended by many of the game’s top-ranked players, Woods reportedly laid out plans for PGA Tour events with limited fields and much larger purses, while he and McIlroy also shared their ideas for technology-driven events that would be shown in primetime starting in 2024. Woods, McIlroy and the PGA Tour later made their own official announcements that confirmed those intentions.

The most recent press release says document requests have been made of Woods and McIlroy, as well as audio and visual recordings of the Wilmington meeting. The release says the documents will be used at Woods’ and McIlroy’s depositions, as well as Monahan’s deposition, for which he has been noticed to appear on September 27.
