You are right, we need to see the details first...

Maybe not...Golf Channel just showed a statement from Jay Monihan, and he specifically called out the team aspect.

Golf guy on Sirius just said he’s texted some pro guys and everyone said they had no idea and all feel betrayed and hurt



Would be amazing if we see a class action suit by the players against their own tour.

Also absolutely remarkable that CNBC had a taped interview with Jay and Yasir that they were able to hold onto, unleaked, until the announcement was made this morning.

But if he stays on the PGA Tour, it's hard to argue against those that call him out for all the integrity stuff he was spouting since he'd now be doing the same as the Liv bros, playing in a league funded and run by the Saudis.


I agree - the big time players need to revolt and flat out refuse to play under these circumstances. There’s now a great opportunity for a new American tour that doesn’t take blood money.

Uou think that has an impact on this deal?



In the sense that his win may have an influence on additional PGA Tour defections? I don't think that's inconceivable.

One of many absurd things said about LIV golfers is that they wouldn't be able to compete with PGA Tour golfers in the Majors because of the lesser competition week in and week out. Well that myth was shattered.

Everyone should be allowed to wear shorts now. It’s too damn hot out there.

Hope they have the moral fortitude to do it. This Monihan guy seems like a sleaze.

The one thing I haven't seen is what happens to Norman with Jay being the new CEO? Is he just out now? If so, I'm sure he will get paid a ton but sucks for him getting it going to be ousted just like that.

Jay says he's holding a players only meeting at 4 at the Canadian Open. Man, what a meeting to be in that will be

Former United States President Donald Trump called on the world’s best golfers to break away from the PGA Tour to join the LIV Golf Invitation series this week. Trump is predicting an eventual merger between the rival golf leagues and telling loyal PGA Tour players to “take the money now”

I like Trump but never understood this position. Not very “America First”

If they could have gotten the chicks from One Tree Hill on the broadcast it would have been at least 4.

I wonder if he will have a meeting with the 9/11 families he weaponized against LIV too?

You can be "America First" and be able to read the bold-lettered writing on the wall at the same time.

This is incredible. PGA cucks are eating a huge shite sandwich. Imagine being one of the players who turned down LIV money
