re: Designated Tour events will have no cut and smaller fields in 2024

LIV has inadvertently made the PGA Tour a lot better than it was. The PGA events will now make more sense and the non-designated events will have a fun aspect, seeing guys try to get into the Top 50-70 range.
I do hope some of the LIV guys get invited back to the tour and an agreement gets made. With some of LIV's top management resigning recently, I do wonder about its sustainability. Yes, they have all the money in the world, but are they accomplishing what they set out to accomplish? Feels like they could pull the rug out at any time.
You seem to be defining LIV golf through the eyes of the PGA. Why? LIV didn't do all this to inadvertently make the PGA a better league. They aren't wanting to reconcile, they are their own international entity.

He played every card he could. Plus, it is the players tour so save me all of that plantation BS.
Then why did he and the PGA attorney laugh the players out of the room when they proposed a player/pga jointly owned series of events? This would have destroyed any chance of LIV and really proven that it is “the players tour”.
Instead the players were told anything not owned and controlled 100 percent by the tour would be considered hostile.

My biggest question with LIV is just - are they accomplishing what they meant to accomplish when they started the league? I don’t have the answer to that question.

In less than a year? They only played 8 tournaments last season. Not in Jay Monahan's fondest nightmare did he believe the caliber of player that would leave for greener pastures. Cam Smith is the crown jewel in last season's PGA harvest.
LIV has the horses in the barn, now they need to let them run their race.

About as close as he will get from Rory:

“I’m not going to sit here and lie; I think the emergence of LIV or the emergence of a competitor to the PGA Tour has benefited everyone that plays elite professional golf,” said the 33-year-old.
“I think when you’ve been the biggest golf league in the biggest market in the world for the last 60 years, there’s not a lot of incentive to innovate.
“This has caused a ton of innovation at the PGA TOUR, and what was quite, I would say, an antiquated system is being revamped to try to mirror where we’re at in the world in the 21st century with the media landscape.
“So, yeah, you know, LIV coming along, it’s definitely had a massive impact on the game, but I think everyone who’s a professional golfer is going to benefit from it going forward.”

Alfalfa has spoken out both sides of his mouth so many times concerning players leaving and its impact that it takes a scorecard to keep up.
He knows better. He just doesn't choose to do better.
