By your definition it’s just Tigers story that moves the needle. He has the best story yes? It’s entertainment. Tiger himself means nothing to the viewer. It’s his history and what he can do next. You can’t say it’s this way for this player but not for this other one. Rory moves it some. Rickie being in contention again has moved it. Scheffler can move it. Rahm can move it. Tiger does move it most. Thats not some crazy epiphany. But it’s all because of their history and “story” as you put it. And it still makes them valuable to sponsors. Dunlap is valuable. His story makes it so. But that goes for everyone and especially Tiger.

I am saying nobody is close to being worth any material value besides Tiger. No golfer is worth millions in guaranteed dollars besides Tiger. It’s why guaranteed large contracts paid out by an entity isn’t a viable product for golf

Giving any golfer a guaranteed contract worth millions thinking it’s going to produce actual return is insane from a product viewership/attendance return. They aren’t money makers by their own brand. Only Tiger, as an individual, is a golfer whose brand is worth millions just to play golf tournaments from a contract perspective
