For the players, it's totally personal. It has nothing to do with business. And I think the feeling is mutual on the LIV side. The LIV players and Greg Norman are all in on LIV Golf and feel the same way about the PGA Tour players.


You couldn't be more wrong. See Jon Rahm's comments on the PGA this week.

The PGA and the players left are like the nerds who think they wield some great power now and want to stick it to the jocks.

LIV players have almost universally wanted to play some PGA events since its inception.

This is exactly why the players shouldn't have been involved. They can't separate business from personal

They can’t see it because they’re too pro-PGA & anti-LIV.

Even their own Rory said this today:

"Yeah, honestly I think it's a huge loss for the PGA Tour, if they are trying to get this deal done with the PIF and trying to unify the game,"

"It's really, really disappointing, and you know, I think the tour is in a worse place because of it," McIlroy said.

Hard to tell what you’re trying to say, but most LIV guys are very happy playing over there. They also signed multi-year contracts. Some would play in more PGA events on off weeks, but they’re not quitting LIV anytime soon

Maybe the European guys but the US guys would come back in a second if everybody was able to let this go and move on in a new deal. There are definitely some personal issues that have to be handled first also.

Not sure about that.

Gooch, Bryson, DJ, Phil, Bubba, Wolff all seem to enjoy playing on LIV. I don’t see them returning or playing many additional events.

They left for a reason. There are some events they want to play, but they didn't want to be forced to play terrible events in bad cities with no appearance fee.

The memorial and the players are probably the 2 that most would want to play.

Those guys play LIV because they are not drug tested. FYI

Lets be honest here. The LIV guys are happy to get paid to play over there. There is nothing wrong with that, but its not like they left the PGA for any reason other than money. And I would've been the first one out the door.

The problem with the players being to involved is that you end up inadvertently having agents involved behind the scenes.

The problem with the entire thing is the pga tour is run by the players. It’s the same shite when medical practices are run by the doctors They can blame jay all the want if it makes them feel better but it’s their tour and their choices.


So it was the players that laughed in the players faces when they asked for elevated events and equity in those events years before LIV began? Or was that Jay and the tour’s GC? If the players run the tour, that would have been a silly thing for Jay and the GC to do.
