This kind of thing opens the floodgates. These major orgs are no longer afraid of public backlash to joining with hate groups/human rights violators. It’s cynical as fukk. I know we have been heading that way for a while now, but what kind of society/civilization backslides as opposed to progressing? lol
money the only thing that matters here, out of sight out of mind type of thing
if u seen how ruthless meat companies were with animals u might think twice about eating meat
if they didnt sign with them the same shyt would still be going on so they said fukk it

What's crazy is it probably wouldn't even be too much to just buy both and pull off the same idea.

Rock would do the transaction in one second lol

I don't think it works. The reason LIV had leverage was because all the players were independent contractors and they snagged most of the top up and coming talent. You even had Cam Smith coming off a major then going to LIV. This made all the PGA events irrelevant because the best players weren't playing.

Unless the Saudi's could pull top talent away from the NFL and even then, the NFL brand is so strong that it wouldn't matter. The bigger question would be does this country have an appetite for a second fiddle league/year round football.

LIV does not have most of the stars. They have three. And DJ has been playing like shyt

:dahell: They have the best young talent right now. Look at the finishes in the past two majors.
If Netflix is doing a Full Swing second season and they are filming it now, the fukkery levels are gonna be through the roof :wow:

They've confirmed they're filming as this happened. :mjlit:

No they absolutely do not. This isnt up for debate. Theres only two elite golfers on LIV in Cam and Brooks. Bryson having his first good finish in years at the last PGA doesnt chang that.


All the top young golfers in world rankings are on the PGA except Niemann

I went to a LIV golf tournament in September. It was actually a lot better than I expected. Those criticizing it as "exhibition" golf and saying the quality is poor are jus flat out wrong. It was actually a really good atmosphere, plenty of drinks and food, and it was well priced.

This isn't even a good comparison since the LIV events don't even count in the golf world rankings. :stopitslime:


I'm going by majors. You had 3 LIV golfers in the top 5 at the Masters and 3 in the top 10 (including the winner) at the PGA Championship

Golf is a name game. LIV has some of the biggest relevant names in the sport. They definitely have more than 3 stars as you originally stated. Because of that the PGA had to lean back.

It is what it is. :yeshrug:

This would've gone differently if the LIV guys weren't competing in the final rounds at majors.

LIV guys can and have gained owgr points on the euro tour and the asian tour. Even when they left, they were not the best guys on tour.

You dont know golf. It really is that simple.

Why would the PGA TOUR give a shyt about two majors that they dont run, or have control over? This is about money

And reed, phil, brooks, and bryson arent young, so that has nothing to do with LIV "having the best young players."

Greg Norman, Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson gotta be laughing their asses off.

All that loyalty and morality nonsense…all to get slapped in the face by it a year later.

Let this be yet another example for all of us - fukk all that loyalty in the workforce. Read the signs, map it out, don’t act blindly.

This was inevitable…just don’t think anyone thought it’d happen in 12-24 months.

I'll concede on the best "young" players point but you wildin on the bolded. Major wins are what make stars in golf. You don't think the PGA tour would care if their guys weren't winning majors? :dwillhuh: The perception would be that the best guys aren't on the PGA Tour... so yes they give a shyt. Hell, that's why they were subtly trying to influence the majors into not letting LIV guys play but the Majors held firm.
