Brooks Koepka

Water is wet.

Abe Ancer is the bigger surprise.

These guys must be getting information that they will be able to accumulate world ranking points.

If LIV doesn't get the OWGR points then they can go play enough DP/Euro tour events to accumulate what they need to stay in the game to play the majors.

If this screws up the Ryder Cup, so help me.

That would require them to play more events again. Most of those guys are absolutely looking at this as a way to get more AND work less.

Even if they do get OWGR points for LIV events, the OWGR formula would have to be substantially tweaked for it to do them a lot of good. It recognizes strength of the field, and LIV so far doesn't have nearly enough of that.

Forget sportswashing. I’m convinced there is brainwashing involved.

My guess is Jack Nicklaus and Nick Faldo do 99.999% of the talking while everyone else pretends to slit their wrists with a butter knife.

I would guess Player is the one they want to quit talking.

What's golf going to do when Tiger Woods finally goes away? I see At the Open on TV, figure I would pop by, with a minute "What are Tiger's chances?" Do the great unwashed care about anyone else? apparently not

If you met someone who didn't know anything about Daly, you could just show them that picture and it would tell them everything they needed to know.

Yea, I didn’t see Player. Toss him into that same group above.

In all seriousness, that was apparently mainly an act on course. It was his way of managing stress. He is much quieter in person when he isn’t on stage, so to speak.

fitting.

I see Bubba Watson is going to join, another well past his prime addition.
it would be hard to turn down that money.

Why is everyone up in arms about trump attending the LIV golf party in nyc? Our president just met with the Saudi murdering prince last week. It’s such bukkshit.

And why is Charles Barkley being considered for a broadcasting job with LIV?

The Whyte Boar · « **Reply #319 on:** July 28, 2022, 02:46:58 PM »

That’s why LIV will eventually win this fight. A couple of three billion dollars a year is couch cushion change for the Saudis. They can throw money at people forever without any concerns as to profitability. The PGA is going to lose this fight.

Because he is probably the most entertaining sports broadcasters currently, and one that has been involved with golf.

considering the LIV is playing a Trump course, it only makes sense he shows up for the attention. he'll do the same at Doral later.

Is bukkshit a rear-end version of the old Asian target practice?

TENS of people in attendance. 57,000 people watching on YouTube right now.

The TV execs have to be fighting each other to hand out the first mega million dollar offer for LIV golf and that viewership.
