, pay little to no federal income taxes, taking advantage of legitimate tax breaks, but also using strategies that many believe are solely about avoiding taxes. The legislation would require companies that make over $1 billion in profit a year to pay no less than 15 percent of their “book income” — the amount they report to shareholders but not to the I.R.S. — in federal income taxes. That figure would be adjusted for various factors, including foreign taxes and R.&D. credits.

The LIV Golf circuit is bankrolled by the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia.

It poached several prominent players from the PGA Tour with mammoth upfront payments and appearance fees. Phil Mickelson, a six-time major-tournament winner, reportedly received $200 million. The circuit has become

The organization has invested time and money and given golfers a platform to build their careers, said K.
