My bestie played golf with both Spieth and Zalatoris growing up. Isn't that something?

Yes, that is an elite name drop

It's kind of amazing how much pro golf talent Dallas produces. I'm not sure why that is, although I suspect money plays a factor.

What a choke job!

[DaBigTrain]

Brutal

I feel bad for him, but happy that my boy Zalatoris is somehow still in this!

JT was down 8 shots today and won!

Pretty tough day for the PGA Tour and I couldn't be happier. Jay Monahan trying to maintain a monopoly on professional golf is devious. We wouldn't have an issue if he just would let players play on both tours.

He'll have to eventually give in, right?

I'll be interested to see how it plays out.  I think the Saudi tour will lose significant amounts of money for a while but likely has deep enough pockets to withstand it.

Agreed. I was talking with my dad yesterday and saying it doesn't fiscally make sense on their end, but I'm sure they have a plan. They have to.

Heard they offered Tiger $1B and he mushed them.

They've signed all these American golfers and don't have a US television deal.

DJamer got 125M guaranteed just to exclusively play the LIV? What country do they play tournaments in?

You can only watch it on Youtube and their website too. That sucks. Here are the events listed so far. I'd actually be interested to attend one, just to see if I can pick up any difference in the events.

so the pga deciding to take the "getting bitter not better" approach

[Pete]

I am more than amused, quite delighted actually, to see the organization supported by the most money-motivated people in the most money motivated country in the world get mad about another money motivated country engaging in fair competition with them, and stealing money motivated players from them.
