Isn't the whole LIV thing about NOT showing loyalty and doing it all for the money?
I think the PGA Tour would hope many believe that.
Even LIV contracts have expectations that elicit a form of loyalty. But once those are met they seem to allow the players to do what they like. That in itself indicates a degree of loyalty to the players. Far more so than the PGA who expect total devotion.

Showing your age Dotty!
But I have a feeling its going to take some monumental $ now the PGA has rejigged its product.
I still expect Matsuyama and Scott to end up in Liv for next season. Matsu might end up making $500m out of it, and Scottie gets a nice pension to finish his career. Both offer better value than Pat Perez

Have to agree with this.
Again, I am hardly a fan of the Saudi regime, but the hypocrisy of the US PGA Tour has probably tipped me over to being sympathetic to the LIV guys. They have happily taken Saudi money in the past, but it is suddenly 'tainted' when it goes to someone else.
I really can't see why non-Americans, and particularly the European, Asian and Australian tours, are so fan-girl about the US tour. It has used its power to bully the rest of the world for decades, solely for its own benefit, and I am starting to quite like the disruption LIV has caused. The mere fact that the US Tour were able to miraculously give players a considerably revised product almost on the spot (after years of crying poor) shows how gullible they really view the player and supporter base.
I can assure you I am no fan-girl of the PGA Tour, but its obvious why it took over the world. Why would top level players come and play for a first place purse in Europe, Australia, South Africa, Japan or Asia which is a tenth of the first prize on the PGA Tour, or pays less than a top 10 in Jackson, Missouri?
Its purely a commercial decision to play for the big bucks which opens up additional opportunities.
I would much prefer the US Tour taking a 2 or 3 month hiatus, and then have events around the world, but you wouldn't see strong fields at them as they hopped around the globe - top players would take a break at the end of their long season, and make occasional appearances when incentivised by promotors. We already had holiday month in December with a bunch of nothing events, but you rarely saw an big names travel down under.

I’m looking forward to the PGA Tour LXXII invitationals next year. The top of non LIV golf is going to look a lot like LIV golf. And those at the top now have set it up to keep them at the top.

Hmmm, a bit quiet in here.
Where are all the fanboy comments about how great it was to see a guy we have never heard of beating a guy we don't like and a guy who should never be beating the 'top players in the world', if those top players were trying hard. Is it a coincidence that those top players didn't perform when they had to travel?
What I really want to know is whether the on-course interviewer asked Sergio whether he was happy in Thailand while the Spanish Open was being played.
In a way I'm looking forward to Saudi Arabia, just to see what happens if DJ and Cam and Brooks suddenly develop injuries and can't play.

I watched the last few holes after the rain delay. was great to see someone so young get up, he didnt even have a little wobble, as most do in that scenario. But i dont feel the need to fawn all over it either, its not as if anyone didnt know or wasnt happy for the kid.
I also like watching Patrick Reed play. His composure after hitting into the water on 16 and getting on with the job is impressive ( for sure most elite golfers are the same.... sometimes), whereas if it was me, i would have had a 13. Actually I didnt even think Reed went into the water, his reaction to me indicated it stayed up. I still got a lot to learn about this game.
Some key ’s out of the weekend.
- A 22yo has changed his life by displaying quite brilliant golf
- Leish getting amongst it
- Fireballs winning the team event, but more importantly the team event podium going down to the last player on the last hole
- Rory McIlroy AGAIN coming out to say the PGA Tour needs to soften their stance
- Jon Rahm’s statement in his winners press conference on the DP World Tour in support for the winner of the LIV.
- No Laying Up’s Chris Solomon crying over the winner’s eligibility while continuing to d!ck ride for the PGA Tour
Ahhh.
And the BESTEST most WONDERFUL is Patty Ice choking and Tommy the Tank stealing the win!!!!
