The Saudi's are going to drop their lawsuit against the tour and the whole LIV golf tour experiment. No interest in team golf with half your stars being the most sniveling jerks in golf. Hope the players got their money up front because good luck sueing those scary…..
Brooks would definitely be a terrible poker player as he couldn't slow play a hand to save his you know what.
So here we go again with morals, but you take money from the us government that legalized, human trafficking, murder, rape, and mistreatment of human beings for 350-400 years. Stop with the morals when domestic terrorist have been right here, in which many were members of the klan etc… as a matter of fact, pga with their Caucasian clause in their bylaws, and went as far to change from open to invitation to keep a particular group out. And you have the nerve to say you wouldn’t take money from a group of ppl that come across as you have your morals & values in place, simple ppl with mics….
"He was making putts and firing darts" yet CBS didn't show very much of Phil. They'd show every shot Tiger hit but not Phil.
If LIV offered you $100M – yeah ok, I'm sure you won't take it. Hypocrite!
Phil said he has been taking care of himself, and Tiger simply has not, from every level. He has made bad choices over the years that unfortunately have serious consequences, and although you may argue that one thing has nothing to do with the other, it does. Staying a loyal man to your family gives him a much more stable environment and self that it promotes a much more positive wellbeing. This is strictly speaking about Tiger's demise. What Phil has done and continues to do is just working for him right now, at this moment in life. Wish them the best always!
LIV had 3 players in top 5, all of these guys are pro’s regardless of the tour. They are invited to play in this tournament because they are good.
Rich is a Phony
LIV is a world tour, pga is us domestic that will be the difference in the future.
Rich, at what point do we start asking ourselves… was phil really better than tiger?
Stay with me. Tiger is a ped cheat. Thats performance enhancing drugs… lefty, nope.
Lefty still has it and tiger is dead… his body and mind that is.
Tiger is def no jack nicklaus. Nope.
Phil was world class douche LONG before he bent over for the Saudis.
Eisen is fine putting Saudi gas in his car and using Saudi oil for just about every product he consumes. He’s a hypocrite.
No one should feel sorry for tiger, he did it to himself
CW does not carry liv in Detroit.
Loved Phil's new look. No of those ugly logos he used to have. If the masters was 54 holes Brooks might have won. Next they will shorten majors to 54 holes to give these guys a chance
If not for Jon Rahm the PGA TOUR is a joke! Brooks and Phil just embarrassed the entire PGA TOUR. I m extremely disappointed with Roy JT Scott and TW for not showing up at all. Thank goodness for Jon Rahm. I hope the PGA TOUR GOLFERS show up at the OPEN, US OPEN AND PGA.
I WATCH LIV!
Top 6 at Masters… 3 pga players 3 LlV players…
How funny is it to hear a comment about not taking Saudi money from an American,
The Dollar is the most blood stained currency in the whole world,
You Americans don’t have a moral high ground
Phil is for real not a phony — a person has the right to make money – others have taken checks from "bad countries" – Woods was going to withdraw if he played bad – the rain made it easier – that is why at his PC he said he don't know how many he had left – stop making it LIV vs PGA – this is all Woods & Jack doing that started the bad mouthing – so is Woods still limping & in a wheel chair ? he will play again for everyone – "look at me i am so brave " same old MO of his – PGA better let him n Jack go & merge with or come with an understanding & stop refusing those Golfers with LIV from playing PGA tournaments – PGA is slowly implementing Phil's ideas
What? Tiger became addicted to prescription pain killers when he was training with Navy Seals. He should have been charged with a felony after his last accident.
If the Saudis offered money… it would be no different than the PGA taking billions from them in ad money. The Saudis are just as evil as America.
You can tell how many surgeries Tiger has undergone every time the club he's swinging crosses that point between his feet. It's painful to watch. That's the price of greatness as plain as day.
Hiding behind the aviators, don't let him off the hook….
Won’t take money from the Saudi’s. So then he doesn’t watch the Chinese owned nba either ?
LIV won 2 of the Top Three spots. Sounds like they are soft, lol.
It's mental that while Tiger is slowly winding down like early 00's MJ, Phil is getting a Miami-Shaq-level comeback at 52 for his all-round consistency
He and Garcia were so brutally frustrated by Tiger for the entirety of the 00's into the mid 2010's & while Garcia eventually peaced out, Phil took his short-game genius and kept going
Tell me why the Masters invite LIV? Not necessary!
I think many have a skewed view of Phil being a nice and modest guy when he in fact is very phony and a manipulative person using false modesty as a shield, talking behind peoples back, using his public persona to control a narrrative that is favourable to him in the media and press to gain leverage. I must admit I felt vindicated after he chose to be a lackey for the clown prince of Saudi Arabia but not even that convinced a lot of people who are still bending forwards and backwards for a has-been player who has a questionable character.
The baldy guys is so PGA tour sponsor..pity..keep your biased to yourself baldy..keep it objective
Why with his pattern of misconduct is TIGERS character never questioned? Unfaithful in marriage, found under the influence of the drug side of highway, allegedly passed out under the influence of drugs while driving then drives off road and luckily only injures himself, now being sued by live in girlfriend, P. S She should not get dime. Have own opinion why Tigers lack of criticism by press. Tiger already given credit for making more money for all PGA players Liv golf has done the same.Tiger a billionaire and easy to complain about players moving to get more money from Saudis.
Eldrick has lots of STDs
EISEN: A GUY THATS IN LOVE TO HEAR HIS STUPID OPINIONS
The reason people do not like LIV players is as follows – the real and right question to ask oneself is if you already had 20 to 30 mill dollars in the bank (like many pga players already have) would you then say yes to a further 50 mill regardless of were it came from and my answer is a resounding NO if it meant violating my values (let’s say the money was paid by Putin – money stolen from Ukrainia) because why wouldn’t it be better and enough with 30 mill dollars and a clean conscience instead of feeling like a criminal and greedy the rest of your life?!?
Makes it more interesting. Everyone had to play in the same conditions, brings out different skillsets.
People are comparing apples with oranges. It’s one thing doing business or cooperate with an enemy but quite another animal when you decide to represent someone like the crown prince of Saudi Arabia, all for money. The former has been done since the beginning of time, in war times as well in peacetimes. That’s how society and capitalism work. It’s a necessary evil if you want to survive as a people or grow as a corporation. Being an employee of the enemy is a quite a different animal all together. The latter deciding for you what to do with practically no leeway and you are obligated to representing the employer’ values who gets to define their product, whereas doing business with the enemy you get to decide terms, liability, a series of demands and so forth. If you want to know one of the reasons for the aversion towards LIV players it’s their self serving, shortsighted, lack of good values, greedy approach neglecting who they work for all because of money even though they all, for the most part, are very well off because of the pga. Not to toot my own horn but I have driven an electric car for the past 7 years but I’m no saint but choosing to represent someone like the clown prince of Saudi Arabia is no small order!!!
A final point regarding the ‘2023 Masters’, a point that not one commentator has made, we all know that 3 of the top 5 were from the ‘LIV’ roster but it is so much more than that, yes the 3 LIV players performed well however without their participation the tournament would have been a disaster, LIV players rescued the PGA and rescued the governing board at Augusta and I have to say it was immensely entertaining, LIV should send an invoice to the PGA for saving their reputation and also their player reputations, what a turn around in 12 months.
Those who don't see how LIV going to be successful are either ignorant or just plain biased .
Phil can still play.Tiger cant.. Tiger gets coverage cause they have to keep some black in golf.Tiger went from the MAN in Golf to a PAWN. Always withdraws instead of posting crappt score that he earned
Phil is the man!
Tiger will make a retirement announcement in the near future.
And.. I liked watching him at his best.
Phil.. well… to end 2nd place at 52 yrs…. enough said.
tiger is no longer the best player in his own house😮
