DISAGREERaceBannon said:The PGA tour is 4 majors and their big money dozen events. They devalued the rest of the schedule. Nogaf about LIV regardless of who is there. Golf going the way of tennis down the drain. Some kind of merger is inevitable. Unless you win a major like Koepka you are rich and invisible. Not sustainable. Golf was a niche sport anyway
Ok maybe partially. In terms of youth sports participation in the US in the past 4 years the two fastest growing sports are tennis and golf.
Tennis has a distribution problem for TV since only the majors show up on major TV. Otherwise you need the tennis channel. (In the US)
The Saudis have tried to buy their way in to tennis as well but with so much revenue tied to the women’s game the push back is much stronger. -
I'm in the golf watching demographic
Old circling the drain and white
Also rich allegedly
Lot of kids play soccer too. -
I pay attention to the west coast stuff, Phoenix, Pebble, Riviera and Torrey Pines because I’ve played the tracks…and, the majors / Ryder / Presidents…I’m good with that

I half-follow the Korean LPGA, Very competitive. My two favorites... Yoo Hyun-ju is ranked about 276th so is a non-factor, despite her big endorsement deal with TaylorMade. My other fav is Yoon Ina, but she's still serving a three-year suspension for cheating.RaceBannon said:I'm in the golf watching demographic

I watched what I posted.Bob_C said:
Interesting hearing that Daly's best buddy on tour was Fuzzy Zoeller. Can't imagine some of the conversations those two had in practice rounds. -
Fuzzy got canceled before it was cool

El Guapo has one of the better swings of all time, especially considering he's a big boy.
