The penultimate group was the ultimate this weekend
Rory and Hovland were 12 under Saturday
The Cams were 15 under Sunday

He's been turned into a non person by NBC and the Golf Channel already. Don't blame him.
Completely on brand
LIV has the two biggest gamblers now
And Trump never forgets
Bedminster hosting LIV not the PGA championship
Using 9 11 families is low rent but this is a blood fued
-
OK this is a current and young star but I won't miss him. He had a beef with Patrick Reed but now they are on the same side
-
The traditionalists are really taking this whole LIV thing hard. My golf buddies are all losing their minds.

Let the market work it out
Saudis are at 650 million for a handful of players
Doesn't seem sustainable
LIPO -
Free money. $100mil just to show up, play a light schedule with an easy tourney format, and get paid whether you play well or not.RaceBannon said:OK this is a current and young star but I won't miss him. He had a beef with Patrick Reed but now they are on the same side
I dont blame anyone for taking it. Just don't be fags about it. -
I like the PGA Tour in this one
I wondered if some of the money being thrown around is real -
By the way no restraining order
The trial goes on
LIV won't let a player play opposite a LIV event -
I saw someone (Freddie, or JT maybe) commenting about "growing the game", and calling bullshit...paraphrasing, "Just say it's about the money, because that's what it's about".chuck said:

True competitors don't play "for the money" (I know, the money is NICE), they play to be the best, and to do that you have to compete against the best, and fucking grind it, every week.
The greatest golf-watching memories / moments I have were majors and Ryder / President's Cup. When "the Field" gets appearance money (LARGE), it lets the air out of the pressure-balloon, for me, and for them, I'm sure. From what I've seen, they party like rock stars on the plane, even the guys that finished +10...Why grind when you cash every week?
John Daly can't get into LIV (he begged Norman), but he will be treated as "royalty" in GB as long as he lives because he won The Open, 30-whatever years ago. IMO, history will judge them harshly, if at all.

If nothing else, this should get the Tour to get its shit together. I'm guessing they won't though. Playoffs should be for top 8 or 16 and do matchplay from there. And for gods sake can we get a playoff event at a real course for us architecture snobs? Eastlake and TPC Southwind fucking suck. Willing to LIPO out Biden's Wilmington Country Club, but I bet it sucks too.Fishpo31 said:
