re: LIV Viewership down again

Al-Rumayyan and his deputy, Majed al-Sorour, were omnipresent at the LIV events last year, bro-hugging their way through the pro-ams and hosting Tuesday night player parties with fancy wines. But they have been noticeably absent this year, a signal they are now treating LIV more like a business and not a fantasy camp for weekend hackers with PIF money.

This was always going to end this way. The Saudi's always move on to the next shiny object. Irrespective of your thoughts on human rights, the pga tour, etc. They were never going to put in the effort and time to compete and it was always gonna be a flash in the pan. They don't have the support system to have it any other way. Someone always comes in and temps them with soem flashy concept and then once the press and newness fades and they bleed them dry, they move on.
