re: Bryan Bros Update - Corales Puntacana Championship
Posted by holmesbr on 4/19/24 at 12:25 pm
Say they do get into the Zurich. If they put a camera on the bag and record the round and do a voice over later. Does the PGA have the final say if they can broadcast that? Is that the type of stuff that the players are complaining about? Independent contractor but not really independent?...

Amateurs showing logos at Masters
Posted by holmesbr on 4/14/24 at 11:27 am
Watching the Woods/Shipley group and Shipley has logos on bag and such. I thought the Master asked/made amateurs cover up logos? Is golf brands ok if it's like a stock bag vs having Canes or something plastered all over? Or as long as it doesn't conflict with tournament sponsership?...
