re: LIV Players file a Anti-Trust suit against the Tour

It’s an interesting situation for sure.
At face value I agree with the facts that an independent contractor should be able to seek better opportunities without facing the type of restrictions and bans that have been placed on them. I also agree that the LIV tour is getting discriminated against to a point by the PGA and other big players in pro golf because they fear the competition.
At the same time these LIV guys should’ve read their PGA contracts better because from what I’ve seen the PGA has every right to do what they are doing based on the contracts.
I want LIV guess to be able to play PGA events and vice versa because that’s what would be best for the game but not sure if that will happen

Yes, and I have worked as a Independent Contractor before and I still had to adhere to certain policies that the company had in place.
I think it is very interesting that DJ is not part of the suit.
I believe that LIV has a list of players that they are going to cull at the end of their season and some guys may not have a place to play.
How long will LIV tolerate Mickelson shooting 9 over every week...

The whole point of the lawsuit is their contracts can't say that. They know what they said, they're arguing the legality of that.

The one thing that seperates them from the “independent contractor” verbiage is they pay a membership fee per year to be a member. Not sure how they even have a leg to stand on here.
