I thought that was great today.

It’s not really going to have the same sort of impact once the fields get bigger and better.

Multi-Millionaires becoming richer doesn’t really do anything for me. It was cool for Du Plessis and Uhlein in particular to earn life changing $ today.

Is the crowd at the RBC always this good, or did the 2 year covid hiatus from Canada make this year better?

Also the PGA couldn’t have it play out any better than having Rory, JT, and Burns all in the top of the leaderboard this week

I think you're going to have a lot more guys from the PGA Tour come over for the event in Portland.

I enjoy a good heel on tour but as long as it’s just morally bankrupt pricks announcing for LIV I think we’ll be a OK.

What sucks is these assholes are throwing SO much money at these players that you’d be a fool to turn it down.

I can’t believe some of y’all(not saying you are, crow) are rooting for this thing

People root for hurricanes man. The human element loves drama

Then in 6 years when golf is worse off they stand around like “what in tarnation happened?”

Crimsonian is gonna nope out of this league in 3 years and leave me following the featured group of Luke List and Richard Bland at the Valspar



I’m anticipating large crowds following JT/Burns chasing Finau and Rory.

They’re going off in 3s today. So JT gets added to the final group (pace of play will be slower, but can’t blame them for doing it).

Also, Linn Grant today was incredible. Won the Scandinavian Mixed. Strikes the shite out of the ball. LIV should go after her.

She OBLITERATED the field

I too was wondering about LIV going after some women

I don't have much interest in the PGA Tour from week to week anymore. There was a point in time where I did. I pay attention for the majors, of course. I will watch on a day like today when you have a bunch of big name players at the top of the leaderboard.

It would not bother me if LIV succeeded. It's just more golf to watch.

The second thing makes it less likely that the first thing happens.

And on LIV. If JT, Rory, Rahm and Spieth are locked into the PGA Tour, that just dilutes the golf on LIV. It’s why I’m so confused about people wanting this to succeed.

The best possible case scenario is it eventually gets all the great players from the PGA to play together

Well if that’s what you want, why the frick don’t we just stick with the PGA where the best players were already playing together? It’s insanity

The only reason any fan is rooting for LIV is drama. They can lie and say other reasons, but it’s a lie.
And you aren’t getting more golf at all. Let’s use football for an analogy

Let’s say you had LSU Alabama playing at 7pm. With this change, you aren’t getting more football to watch, you are now getting Bama vs ULL at 7pm and LSU vs ULM at 7pm…..

Not only that, but it’s only 8 weeks a year.

So if everyone goes to LIV we get 12 weeks of golf during the year? Sounds awesome…
