“I think I could be helpful to the process. But only if people want me involved, I guess.
“When Webb and I talked and he talked about potentially coming off the board, I said, ‘Look, if it was something that other people wanted, I would gladly take that seat,’ and that was the conversation that we had.
“At the end of the day, it’s not quite up to me to just come back on the board. There’s a process that has to be followed. But I’m willing to do it if that’s what people want.”
McIlroy added that a unified circuit was ‘the only way forward for the game of golf’.
“We obviously realize the game is not unified right now for a reason, and there’s still some hard feelings and things that need to be addressed.
“But I think at this point for the good of the game, we all need to put those feelings aside and all move forward together.”
