Can someone summarize the LIV, PGA and Mickelson drama for me?

Why did Phil get cancel culture’d? Why does everyone hate LIV?

Saudi Arabia does/did bad things, which means their money is bad, which means anyone taking their money is bad.
**also, i think the pga/CBS knew that if they started this cancel train the retards on Twitter would run with it because it's an easy target. The pga doesn't even want to try and compete & just want to shoot that shite down from the start

Phil took a few months away from golf so he could work as a hitman for the Saudis. He killed a journalist, and now is pretending like it didn’t happen.

PGA can't keep up with LIV in terms of financial backing. Eventually LIV will begin paying younger players and even established golfers. In the end you won't have a collection of top talent in one league but split across two.

America does/did bad things. I’m sure the PGA is a shady organization. I have no issue with these dudes leaving to go make a shite ton of money.

Signed,
Golf media who have vested interest through cosponsors and deals with the PGA Tour

This is probably a good thing.

He tried explaining away going for the money instead of just going for the money like the other guys.

LIV has Saudi money and infinite funds to back players
PGA tour doesn’t like it because it harms their entity
Media and some people use Saudi angle to try and sway public opinion, but most people see through that
Real reason jt sucks is because it pays players to play less golf. Good for player, bad for fan
That’s about as easy as I can make it

China does horrible things and the US is knee deep, or deeper, in business with that country.

Only when it comes to sports though. It's okay when they invest $ into successful companies, twitter, uber, etc.

Phil allegedly got offered $200 million from the Saudis to play their 8 golf events.
100/100 of the golf journalists would take that pay also. Yet the journalists want to act like they are so morally superior than the players who are taking the nice retirement package.

To be fair to the media guys, if the PGA decides to blacklist them they lose their job so they kind of have to tote the PGA stance in order to get paid.

So what you’re saying is, their “hit pieces” they write are bought and paid for. Except it’s the American PGA paying their bills.

Phil screwed up and was caught basically talking about human rights record of Saudi, but still doing LIV anyway because money is so good.
If he said nothing and just took the money there would have been no cancellation or controversy.
Like most things these days the whole ordeal is stupid.

Phil is a drama queen that wants to stay relevant, be the smartest person in the room and likely needs to pay off gambling debts.. PGA knows this is a serious threat and they cannot compete with money. They have little ability to stop it. Golf Channel/NBC is a huge bunch of hypocrites.
