re: Any truth to the rumors of a LIV event in New Orleans?

They said during the CBS broadcast that Zurich is about to do a long-term extension on their sponsorship, and that there was record attendance this week. They also had 5 of the top 15 golfers, as opposed to this week in Dallas who only have 1.
I think it's a valuable event for Zurich. They can stay as a major sponsor on the PGA Tour, but because of the team format, it will never be one of the rotating big money events, so they will never be on the hook for an increased purse.
As far as LIV and the Super Bowl, I was under the impression that English Turn already had a corporate event booking it that weekend. There is really no other course in the area that is remotely able to host an event of that magnitude.

LIV is planning a tourney superbowl weekend in New Orleans. A course has already turned them down. No other offers were made yet. But they will come.

Rory winning was the best thing to ever happen to the Zurich.
Means he’ll be back and the star power that isn’t already there may follow his lead.
Zurich is set up nicely for the next few years.
Changing the format to attract the big boys was a genius move.

The international pros prefer Carter Plantation

They can reach the greens your group is waiting to try the shot of a lifetime on. Hey old man, you’re 250 out after your 227 drive. You can go ahead and hit your approach…..out of bounds

It was in reference to the notoriously slow pace of play at Carter, not anyone’s golf ability.

Lack of ability is the problem with the pace of play at Carter. Nothing else

They need to bring back those old frickers that were marshals back around 2010.
