Your comment regarding the NHL and NFL being "the same as the PGA Tour" is misleading, disingenuous and factually incorrect.
Neither of those leagues has ever purported itself as being a charity or lauds itself week and and week out as giving billions upon billions of dollars to charity.

The IRS website still refers to professional football leagues as exempt. I don’t see the point of sports leagues paying taxes.

If you don’t like organizations patting themselves on the back for their charitable works, I understand that. Nothing to do with their tax status IMO. A whole lot of companies that pay taxes love doing this.
If the PGA didn’t have exempt status wouldn’t they still be talking about this every tournament?
