Bc it was the most ridiculous?

Imagine also not watching bc they only play 3 days instead of 4

The only practical complaint is that it’s only on CW or a mobile app. I’m sure that will change soon, but does the broadcast really change if it’s on Fox or is it just easier to find?

Why was it ridiculous and where did he say he wouldn’t watch golf over music?

That’s a pretty common opinion bud, even one Rahm has, so ok

So you think the ONLY gripe any reasonable person should have with LIV is them being on the CW? well that’s certainly a take

The 54 holes vs 72 holes, sure

But complaining about only watching 3 days instead of 4?

Pretty obvious I was just criticizing the 3 that were listed…

Apparently you’re incapable of understanding a view different than your own.

ETA: LIV Golf promotions just played 72 holes in 3 days…

I’m not sure what kind of dick measuring mood you’re in this morning, but I was simply responding to another post with my opinion

your thesis was his opinion was ridiculous and then you told me that I don't like people with different opinions.

So I'll ask you again, are you fricking retarded?

Aside from the best players being split into 2 tours, this is the main thing I hate about it. The shotgun start just isn't a good TV product for me.

The funny thing about LIV and their fanboys is that almost everything they have brought that they claim is some kind of new version of golf, has pretty much been tried before. But for some reason, cough cough $$, the PGA just kept coming back to their traditional format.

Why? I’ve liked it because even at the end of the round it has a ton of golf that is counting versus two dudes walking up the 18th. And since LIV has the top 6 players on the last day tee off on #1 the leaders have always finished on 18

IMO it takes away from the drama. Knowing what the guy in the last group has to do to win or tie makes for great tv drama. The LIV shotgun setup the leaders could be on different holes and not knowing what he needs to do takes away from the buildup

You’re criticizing something you’ve never even watched. He just mentioned that’s never happened with the leaders

The leaders at the beginning of the round aren't always going to be the leaders at the end of it, so they will not always finish on 18. But I just find it hard to follow the round and knowing where everyone is. I know it says "2 holes left" at the top, but that isn't always true for everyone on the course. Some might have 3 holes left, some might have 1. It's just not for me. I prefer seeing everyone go through the holes before the leaders and watching them field narrow down to solely focus on those leading at the end instead of still jumping around and showing other shots that really just don't matter.

And losing players. And adding shortened events with no cuts

The Finau rumor seems to just be a rumor though he just put this on instagram...

“The 2023 season is in the books!” Finau wrote.

“I’m excited for 2024 and looking forward to playing my 10th season on the PGA Tour! And stoked to be defending in both Mexico and Houston! Thank you to my partners for your continued support. Thank you to the fans for all the love for our whole Finau fam. See y’all in Maui!”


Even more telling...
