the pga tour might be greedy as hell - but fuck phil for this lack of self awareness:
“They’re scary motherf—–s to get involved with,” he said. “We know they killed [Washington Post reporter and U.S. resident Jamal] Khashoggi and have a horrible record on human rights. They execute people over there for being gay. Knowing all of this, why would I even consider it? Because this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reshape how the PGA Tour operates. They’ve [the PGA Tour] been able to get by with manipulative, coercive, strong-arm tactics because we, the players, had no recourse. As nice a guy as [PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan] comes across as, unless you have leverage, he won’t do what’s right. And the Saudi money has finally given us that leverage. I’m not sure I even want [the SGL] to succeed, but just the idea of it is allowing us to get things done with the [PGA] Tour.”
Greg Norman thinks he's smarter than he is. My wife worked with him for years.

He gets shit done. He does what it takes to win on the scoreboards of life. Who needs friends? The Shark would fit in at Duke. I’ll bet he’s close with Coach K. Both of them won about 5 big ones and choked on the rest.He hasn’t made many friends. But he’s made a ton of cash.
Coach K won 5 national titles instead of 40. Real loser that guy.
Get real.
