I have similar questions. Sure, he put his foot in his mouth, but it's not like he murdered anyone. 

Right.  And I assume he could just refuse the media with a smile and thumbs up. No ?  
 

makes me wonder if Greg is dangling the money and pulling his strings ? 
 

makes no sense to me that last year we saw Phil do what he did and 12 months later he’s in hiding. I’ve seen nothing to warrant this.  Not even the gambling debt. 
 

i mean he’s not done what thunder bear did in my opinion, and that guy not only came back. He won .  Who knows.

I don't think he's hiding. I think he's probably done with the PGA and has money assurances from the other Tour so he just doesn't care

how is it a ghost suspension if the PGA says they welcome him to participate?

In all seriousness, I'm sure the PGA made it clear to Phil he can play and they would do their best to accommodate, but at the same time also made it clear there is only so much they can do to minimize the circus.  Ultimately, it would be inevitable with the book release, Norman always in the news, and everything else...this would be the story, not the golf.  And it clearly would diminish the accomplishments of the winner.

 

Unlike the debacle of Will Smith robbing the other Oscar Winners of their moment, at least the PGA and Phil can prevent the train wreck.

 

The fact not long ago Phil registered to play in the PGA means he was still wrestling with the idea.  Why?  Who knows...ego?  Thinking there was a way to spin this towards the positive?  Simply because he's defending champion?  Regardless, whatever the process, cheers to Phil to step aside and not be the center of attention this particular week.  He can do that some other week.
