Meanwhile, the same posters melting down now will be on here next year doing the exact same thing to the next guy.
some player is always the punching bag of this board and it gets really old every season.

well yeah, this is his last year of eligibility. He'll be working a job somewhere
But I do agree with your sentiment. the continuous piling on the guy has gotten stale and pathetic at this point, especially considering how poorly pretty much all the transfers have played.

It therefore seems like a largely ineffective exercise.
I didn't say it was necessarily effective but that doesn't change what its intended purpose is. The Saudis also aren't the first country to do it. I'd say the Berlin Olympics in 1936 would be a great example of sportswashing

Does anyone actually understand what “sportswashing” means?
It's when governments use sports as a means of improving their image/reputation worldwide to divert the attention from the bad things their government is involved with or doing. It's a form of propaganda

The irony of course being that he said he wanted to leave LIV to spend more time with his family and yet he's having to show up to tournaments he's not even playing in hoping someone gets a stomach bug so he can play.
almost as ironic as this statement being made by Scott O'Neal in April of this year
quote:
The first thing I say when I’m talking to any player is, LIV Golf is not for everybody. If you want to spend your time in the US, this is the wrong league for you. If you want your home time and you don’t like leaving and you like practicing at the same course and you like to manage your own schedule, this is not for you.
after these comments were made by defectors from the PGA Tour a few years ago
quote:
“Just the quality of life for us as players now. You know, having less events, being able to spend more time at home with the family.”
“It’s given me a lot more opportunity outside of the game of golf and given me more time with my family and my future family.”
“It provides me to play, compete, bring the sport throughout the world, play less, and have a better balance in life on and off the course. I can [now] be more engaged with the people I really care about.”
“There’s several [reasons]. Having more time with the family. Playing a little bit less. And at the end of the day, you feel like you’ve worked pretty much your whole life for something, this was the opportunity that you’ve been waiting for.”
It's almost like Koepka was given an opportunity to get back stateside permanently and took it even if it meant some short-term issues he'd have to deal with like playing more to get full status back, then he can go back to playing fewer tournaments like he did before.

Brooks was stupid to pay the 5 million bounty that the tour made him pay.
eh, he had the money to pay the fine, and I think he wanted to get back to playing all his tournaments stateside as quickly as possible after his wife had a miscarriage. I don't think he wanted to frick around playing all his tournaments overseas to try to earn back status in a year when he could get almost full status back immediately.

Why not just create their own events in South Africa and Australia after seeing how successful they can be.
Exactly. LIV doesn't have exclusive rights to host a golf tournament in Adelaide or anywhere else. It wouldn't make any sense for the DPWT to need to partner with LIV to get in on having a tournament there.

And; as expected, more confirmation from the source that money was not an issue for the 2026 New Orleans tournament and LIV is fully funded for the 2026 season.
nobody gives a shite because
quote:
“PIF has made the decision to fund LIV Golf only for the remainder of the 2026 season. The substantial investment required by LIV Golf over a longer term is no longer consistent with the current phase of PIF's investment strategy….”
“This decision has been made in light of PIF's investment priorities and current macro dynamics. The LIV Golf Board has created a committee of independent directors to evaluate strategic alternatives for its future beyond PIF's funding horizon...
This whole thing about LIV New Orleans started over whether or not PIF was ultimately pulling the plug. They just said they are, so who the frick cares if "LIV is fully funded through the 2026 season." The league is not going to be here after 2026. This entire back and forth about LIV New Orleans started solely around whether this was a sign LIV was losing its funding and ultimately going to fold. They formally lost their funding after 2026 today. And somehow you think this is cause for you to take a victory lap? You're a strange, strange man

The Zurich this year was one of the most pathetic things I've ever seen and the actual attendance numbers were on par with LIV's worst events.
Ignoring your hyperbole, Zurich this year looked way better than any LIV events will in 2027 or beyond.

I probably would too, but i have a feeling other Tour members won't agree and will ask them to give Bryson and Rahm the same deal Koepka got

Gambling in 2026 in the USA and everything that comes with it isn’t even in the same Galaxy as gambling was in this country just 10 years ago
You’re right. It’s way easier making it a far bigger problem.

because I’m for people being able to gamble but at the same time I give zero shits if someone that’s not even old enough to legally gamble, that has also come up and also been paid to play in the world of hypocritical networks, companies and podcasts cost people money.
This isn’t about whether or not people should be able gamble. It’s what amounts to insider trading only with sports betting. Being able to directly influence the outcome of a game or having inside information that no one else has isn’t gambling anymore.
That you can’t see why players gambling on their own games isn’t a massive problem and should be handled as such when caught is honestly shocking

TBF, the LIV simp list on here is pretty short. Most people, at least on this forum, thought this league would be short-lived. The only loud voices defending LIV I can recall are Jim, Pirate, and BBonds
