Where's our board loud mouth duke lawyer to break down the legal loss for us?
Really explains a lot that the prize money is deducted from the signing bonuses for most of these guys. The format might be stupid, but these guys are more competitive and fired up playing ping pong for a few grand than they were in the first LIV event. There’s literally nothing on the line for the good players.
It’s like someone walking up to you and offering you 50 years of your salary tomorrow, and all you have to do is show up for half your schedule for a couple years.

Exactly, just continuing to say it doesn't make it true. It legitimizes LIV, it gives them one of the top 5 favorites in every major next year, that's a big deal. If hideki goes that's another huge deal. Those two alone don't end the PGA Tour, but it makes LIV seem more legit. Don't think this makes me pro liv, I f'n hate it but it is what it is.
Absolutely. They could not have disincentivized competition more if they had tried. You make the same no matter what you shoot.
The LIV will never be a serious tour because of the format. It's exhibition golf. Everyone gets paid upfront. The guys who leave to join it have to accept their careers are over. I'm glad the judge refused to issue an injunction to allow LIV players to compete in the Fedex Cup.
I tend to agree that if the LIV Tour secures a media deal, it could legitimize it more, but I am not sure any American company would want to pay to broadcast LIV events given its close ties with the MAGA movement. Perhaps Trump's media company or Newsmax can offer to broadcast?
Wonder if Cam Young will matter at all? He's next.
