PIP payout should end effective immediately.

And the PGA Tour just caved and merged with LIV. It’s not like the LIV guys quit LIV and begging to come back. They took advantage to go make that money and people are salty that if they knew this was the outcome, most would have done the same. The LIV guys owe nothing to the PGA Tour.

You obviously don't know how this will work.
You still seem to think the LIV stuff will be a separate thing and those people get screwed.
You are going to be in for a surprise.

I have no idea how this will work if/when it goes through. Either do you. There is no telling how the rejoining of players and delegation of events will go
I am sure PIF will want all the best players to be together again, so they will try and work it out to keep the majority of those happy to make it work. The biggest advantage the players on the Tour has is they have the majority of big meaningful players
The biggest advantage liv has is they will argue they did nothing wrong and the new entity should exist as stand alone

I can bet you there won't just be a place for LIV guys to go wallow while the PGA gets stacked.
That is a guarantee.
It will be a world tour. Already said.

No one knows how this is going to go down. Speaking in absolutes makes you an a-hole.

As part of the agreement, the groups will establish “a fair and objective process for any players who want to re-apply for membership with the PGA Tour or DP World Tour”
“Fair and objective” Are guide posts that a lot can be driven between, so how this works will be interesting to watch. PGA players that remained loyal will want something that doesn’t make them look like chumps and PIF will want something that isn’t too punitive to the LIV guys. I imagine there will be some sort of remuneration from the LIV guys that have more of a PR look than actual substance to them.

So now Rory told Murray to play better when saying Jay should resign. Glad Murray told him to frick off.
Piece of shite move Rory.
Once again, if this is true. Seems confirmed.

They could also fine the LIv guys half of their bonuses, but have PIF pay the fines and have it paid out to the pga tour players in a tiered system
That way
Everyone gets money, everyone saves face, and the only loss is to PIF monetarily (who cares to them)
That would literally allow for every player to be happy
There is a million ways it could go and it will be interesting as you said

It will probably be something along those lines. Getting the details of this merger papered up will be a nightmare, but publicly there is no point to any continued infighting and animosity from the perspective of PGA, DP, and PIF. Now that they’ve come together organizationally, they have to find a way to bring all of their players together. Easiest way is the Jerry Maguire method.

Except for that whiny bitch Grayson Murry.

I’m a tiered system, the guy ranked 227 gets like $14

I could see LIV as a much better version of itself with 6 total tournaments (a couple in US, a couple in Europe, one in Australia, one in Asia and one in the ME) and team captains selecting the best players from all over the world. I would prefer a fresh start and a draft, but that is likely not possible with all of the contractual commitments already made.
There are many different ways to incorporate the LIV "tour" into the PGA tour season. They are already different enough to transition from competitors to complimentary entities.
The FedEx cup could be replaced by the LIV Championship. 5 tournaments at the end of season, 54 hole no cut team events made up of the top 48 from that season that culminate in a points based individual and team champion. Rory could even decline to participate every season so he can sleep at night in that scenario.

The LIV guys owe a lot to the PGA guys for sticking it out. If they all would have jumped, then the PGA would have had zero bargaining power and LIV would have taken over. Instead because of the PGA players sticking it out, the PIF most likely had to pay way over market value to buy the PGA, which should mean a lot more money for both PGA and LIV players in the future.
LIV players should be thanking the PGA guys for not caving.

The PGA Tour is what gave them the ability to go to LIV.

So Rahm was likely going to LIV. Now we know who caved.

That is the rumor right now. Likely will never know the truth.
Supposedly was about to go public.
