Sounds like you’re simping for the Saudi backed PGA Tour

Nope, glad PGA won but won’t make it a big deal because it wasn’t a big deal.

Man really bad showing for Bryson, feel like he’d built a lot of positive momentum on a personal likability level with his YouTube stuff.

The jacket was awful,
He couldn’t putt it into a kiddy pool sized hole and seemed petty taking the ear piece out.

Only watched the first couple holes and just read up on what happened. Sounded like a snooze fest. Not that I was wanting some grudge match because these dudes are pretty good friends, but sounds like that wasn't even any banter or smack talk between them. Kind of lame.

Can't believe Scottie and Rory got 5 million each in prize money for this as well. That's a pretty solid payday for basically just a round with your buddies.

I'd really rather they have one play-by-play guy, Chuck, and then let the rest of it be the players talking. Listening to Bryson and Brooks talk about their first approach into 1 was more interesting than most of the stuff last night.

I wish they would play a hammer game. That would be a lot more interesting. It would bring out the banter and discussion within and between teams.

Bryson: Hmm, you just hit it to 10 ft, Brooks. Should we hammer?
Brooks: Yeah. Hammer.

Rory: What do you think, Scottie?
Scottie: I'm about to hit this to 3 feet. We'll take!

Towards the end (between 14&15) when it was clear they were going to lose, was Bryson crying in the cart? Or at least tearing up?

It felt like all of them wanted to be done and in front of a warm fire. Not much interaction with each other or the crowd in the night shadows.

Bryson did seem really pissed he was putting like a muni amateur, though.

They’d have crushed them even more, I’d have hammered Bryson on every putt

Ratings coming out.

625k viewers across TBS / TNT. 2nd lowest ratings for any of “the matches”



Not a great look for professional golf as a whole, but even worse for the future of th matches. Desperately need to change the format or something.
