Most people in pro golf circles have heard the Phil and Amy stories, this stuff is kinda tame

if this is tame, give us the scandelous stories
The worst part to me is the overlap in Tier 1 and Tier 2 events on 8 weekends. I could get behind the proposal if they staggered it so we have 1 tournament every weekend and something like the fall series was great imo. But 8 myrtle beach classics doesn't sounds great

It's been well reported for over a year that the Tour and the sponsors are at each other's throats over this. Rolopp trying to tell sponsors what can and cannot do with their money. The sponsors telling him to kiss off.

Please link this reporting
So the "challenger series" is basically the Korn Ferry Tour. Not sure if the pga tour noticed from LIV, but just making a tournaments purse bigger doesn't elevate the event.

This sucks

You will still see guys like Spieth and Scheffler play in track 2 Texas events

Lot of rumors floating around that Tier 1 guys won't be eligible to play tier 2 events.

If I had 10 rounds to split and price isn't a factor, I'd go 9 at the preserve, 1 at Grand Bear

to this day I've only been friends with 1 guy off the course.

Sounds like you need some friends, baw.

If you go out on the golden nugget putting green and just start putting, I highly doubt anyone will tell you anything.

What does that have to do with a course being in terrible condition?

That you think the LGA is going to monitor conditions at Santa Maria for a state am qualifier and then try to move it to CCL, Uclub, or even beaver creek if conditions aren't good enough for you. It is what it is, everyone's playing the same course.

It's most likely at SM instead of Beaver Creek because they want it in Baton Rouge and not 45 minutes north of it.

State Am BR Qualifier

I think you're overrating the level of championship a state am qualifier is. You can always sign up for a different qualifier and travel to Lafayette or NOLA for it.
Start following Joe Mayo on instagram and stop trying to use the bounce
Has to be the sleepiest, worst signature event on the schedule. They need to do something to bring some life to this part of the calendar.

Are we gonna act like Anthony Kim didn’t win in Australia?

Without question the best thing to happen with LIV was the AK win. Great redemption arc from drug addiction to winning.

Other than that the tour was complete shite. It's what happens when you get involved with some of the worst people in golf like Greg Norman and Phil.

Maybe LIV makes it through a few more lame duck events and finishes the season, but either way LIV is done

How do you fix early extension?

Glad we had the great disruptor, LIV, to make golf less competitive for 5 years, funnel Saudi money to players, and make the product worse after they’re gone
Good to see pirate king and Jim tiger parroting the LIV talking points until the very end

How much more rope does Abreu get?

At least his velocity was back up to normal today. Hopefully the first two starts were just a random dead arm to start the year
