This is just fascinating, if true. The article is a long read but basically it says that Monihan will become the boss over LIV and will be free to do with it as he pleases at the end of the year.

Sounds like the PGA just went around Greg Norman to screw him and LIV over the way the article reads.


Still doesn't clear them of trashing the "Saudi Tour" then going straight to them.

Norman screwed himself years ago by thinking he was bigger than the game.

Pretty sure that Greg Norman actually is the real winner in this competition. Norman has also been very vocal that he did not want to continue being the commissioner of LIV in the event of a resolution with the PGA. Norman had a guaranteed $800 million dollar deal in place at $ 50 million per year. In the event of a resolution between the PGA and LIV he would be paid the entire amount and a replacement would be named. So I would say he did pretty fricking good!

Yep, Norman made a cool 800 million in two years, I would say he is the winner in this deal. He successfully made the PGA tour look silly for over a year and a half. I don't know if he is really such an evil person like everyone claims he is, but he accomplished his goal in this adventure.

And he became an even bigger golf icon in Australia for bringing in LIV after the PGA abandoned it.

So he basically shite and LIV and then forces those players to retire. Everyone knows he gonna fine them for the amount they went to LIV for and no PIP. They will just practice all year and play the majors.

I wouldn’t believe anything the PGA is putting out. They’re scrambling hard to stop a mutiny from the current PGA players.

The less I have to read about Jay Monahan and Greg Norman the happier I am. Golf will be better for everyone when they both disappear.

My only hope is the guys who stayed on the PGA tour get rewarded for their loyalty, brooks, cam, and DJ return to the tour, and we all move on.

In 48 hours it went from LIV won and their players won, to the exact opposite. If the newest reports are accurate Yasir sold out LIv like a $2 whore

If I had to make a guess, the Truth, like always, will likely land in the middle
