I would have thought he could get more. He seems to have more upside than Bryson.

LIV is a legit threat. Players don’t give a frick about the PGA suspending them.

PGA may need to wave the white flag and coexist with LIV if they want to keep a product.

Like I say, the Saudis are booking about 200 million a day in production revenue. This is nothing.

It’s just interesting that so many people are cheering for the Saudis

I understand some of the unhappiness with the pga tour but is the pga tour really worse than the Saudis?

It’s a shitty corrupt government that exports extremism and manipulates the price of oil to their advantage and our disadvantage. I could understand it a lot more if it was an American or European start up.

Are the Saudis worse than the Chinese? Thats the real question, theyre actively carrying out a genocide, running death camps, have millions of Moslems in concentration camps.

What did the Saudis do? Lol whacked one guy that was an Al Qaeda supporter?

But no one said a word when the Tour partners with the CCP

The Tour already partners with the Saudi's, but many are too stupid to know it.

The Saudi PIF fund, the one backing LIV, has a piece of the PGA Tour Fan Shop.

How exactly could they tour stop that? A third party Fanatics runs the tour shop. And the Saudis are invested in Fanatics

The Tour and their talking head lackeys righteous indignation and muh Saudis like their sone holier than thou organization that only works with saints is what is a joke. We arent stupid, and I dont care if they play with China or whomever. The DP plays with UAE, Qatar, Dubai etc. and no one cares. Theyre as bad as the Saudis in every regard.

Ok, you see, that is so fricking dumb. You can say the Saudi blood money is oversold, and I’ll agree

But trying to further the message by trying to equate America and the Saudis in terms of who is worse is just ridiculous

I didn't say who was worse, but tons of PGA tour media dickriders are pointing to the one dead journalist as an example of why these golfers shouldn't take the payday being offered to them and their family.

I think attacking the blood money angle is silly. But it isn’t really a conversation to be had in terms of the Saudis are ruthless and an awful ruling group of people and America is worlds ahead of them for human rights and everything else in terms of proper government

Trying to turn the conversation around with whataboutism with American is a ridiculous concept as well

Bro I mean the Saudis have their shite in Yemen but we have literally killed thousands of children, destroyed entire nations, roasted carload of children with hellfire missile.

We have done terrible shite, it is what it is.
