Just saying that this past June broke the 100 degree record in Houston. That Course will be hot for spectators for sure.


The PGA tour championship is held in Atlanta, Georgia in August.

And I said that Course would be rough on the spectators, because it's not spectator friendly anyway.

So to make your point about Houston being over 100 degrees in June, which it wasn’t, you’re now linking an article that mentions a heat record in Del Rio, Texas?

I don’t know how long you want to keep grinding this axe, but playing golf in June in Houston is not the Armageddon event you’re insinuating it to be.

Assuming Jupiter is home...and return home in off wks... That's just under 60k miles in 3 months. Just for LIV. if you play Augusta and Valhalla... That's 8 events in 12 wks. Private helps but that's still a heck of a schedule. It is more front loaded though - it seems.( Unless more is added. I can't see the season ending in WV)

Its a brutal schedule. But, they are getting paid a shite ton. It’s def true LIV golfers make bank, but it’s a fallacy the schedule is easier or more relaxing. It’s pretty much the same amount of tournaments with far more grueling travel

It’s 2 tournaments a month for 7 months out of the year.

For the handful that get into the 4 majors, it’s 3 in April, June, & July.

Thinking traveling across the globe twice a month doesn’t suck is just naive regardless of private or not

It’s ok to just say the travel sucks

The schedule is set up pretty well, it’s only 1 round trip really for the tournaments “across the globe”.

1 trip to Saudi Arabia/Hong Kong in March
1 trip to Australia end of April
1 trip to Europe in July

Saudi Arabia to Hong Kong is still 11 hour flight

Australia to Singapore is still an 8 hour flight

And then you still have to get home as well

The travel and schedule is easier for a top pga tour player. It isn’t debatable.

You have to do this twice in a 14 day stretch

14 hour flight
10 hour flight
14 hour flight

That’s brutal. Yes the money is awesome, but that’s two really tough travel stretches

Sure it is. Ask someone like Brian Harman or Lucas Glover after they played 30 events last year.

Sure it’s long, but it’s only 3 flights for the entire month of March & 3 at the end of April/start of May.
