re: PGA Tour suspends all current and future LIV players in letter sounding like jilted lovers

PGA tour has money, they just choose to spend it in ways other than paying players (lpga, korn ferry, woke agenda, etc). NFL pays players around 50% of gross earnings. If LIV establishes a following around the world they could easily make enough money to compensate 48 golfers along the lines of other sports.

But the opens are open? They have to go through the qualifying process like an avg joe?

I would love to watch the R&A make Phil go through the whole qualifying process.
Phil: Sir, I am a past champion.
R&A: cool, you will be teeing off on 10 at 6:30 in the morning. We have 120 for 2 slots….good luck.

Par Perez just gave the PGA Tour the finger and joining LIV. They must have thrown a lot of money his way.

It was 10 mil.
Mainly they paid him 10 mil for his wife to market them on social media.

They’re already doing that. They have over a billion dollars invested in 48 players and that’s with Tiger turning down the billion they offered him. Easy to do when you have the financial backing they do and no imperative about being profitable
But no, the sport of golf would never legitimately generate the revenue needed to pay their players like the biggest leagues in the world. That’s just not realistic. The top 10 or so players, sure maybe, but only at the expense of the remaining 200

The PGA tour releases its finances?

Commissioner coming up on cbs.

This is hilarious. They have a great tournament going, and instead they’ve got the commissioner up there basically crying. Total buzz kill.

What a bad interview. Nothing was answered and they tried to make the players feel bad for going by bringing up 9/11.
Posted on 6/12/22 at 2:35 pm to BallChamp00
That was awful. If I was a tour player I think I’d be more likely to join LIV now

Monahan has been a total clown this whole time. Dude can't handle this gig

For the life of me, I can’t believe the PGA Tour hasn’t figured out that outside of a small handful of players NOBODY is just playing for trophies out there.

Rory just buried NORMAN AND LIV
paraphrasing
“It’s nice to play against the best in the world and get 21 victories at my age. One more than someone else has in his career”
Norman has 20 titles
