Your views on the controversy between LIV & the PGA is very refreshing. I am a fan of both and I will soon be 70 years old. Still hacking up the links too. I am a subscriber and try to catch all your posts.. Keep up the good work and best of luck.
I feel in a few years we’ll look back and wonder what the fuss was about. I think the casuals don’t understand the PGA Tour is NOT “The game of Golf.” It’s a 60 year old entity, where as the game of golf has been around for over 150 years. SO, this blind allegiance to JUST the PGA Tour shows how ignorant some people are to the history of golf; claiming they’re fans.
Don’t fool yourselves If Brooks could go back and do over again he’d be competing against the best day in and day out. Not vs 10ish guys on LIV Why has no other “names” switched to LIV this year 🤔 LIV is exceptional by format but these are two different tours
Brooks can def get to 8 majors, he has the mental strength and talent and now a healthy knee. If anybody can get in the way it would be Scheffeler, Cam Smith, DeChambeau or Rahm.
Love the PGA Champs this year. Good to have another name up top, but i Hope Saudis tire of LIV hobby soon, I only have so much pro golf watching time in my life. Miss DJ and mullet.
I’m not surprised Koepka joined LIV. He doesn’t have the likability of a Jordan Speith, who after winning the US Open, money came raining down. Brooks on the other hand, as the only golfer in history to hold back to back US Opens and back to back PGA Championships at the same time, was making nowhere near the money Jordan was in endorsements. Rory McIlroy talks tons of trash, throws clubs into the drink, yet is liked, and has made an absolute fortune. So yeah, $100M to join LIV? Sounds like a no brainer.
Absolutely aggressive was the plan for brooks. The LIv angle is newsworthy because it’s the first major win but aside from chamblee and Lynch this was just another major win by one of the worlds best players. The only thing that comes out of this is the majors cannot hold LIv boys out. Even this pga is being criticized for some of the players held out who should be there; like Sergio who still featured in arguably the greatest PGA ever when he almost beat tiger back in the day. The ryder cup. Again. We talk way too much about 3 days every couple of years. And that’s when all the best were involved. If they don’t want some of the best in Europe and many of the best US bloods, it’s their loss. And should only mean we talk and hear about the Ryder cup less and less. Because no one really cares about a tour grudge match between Monahan and Pellys tours.
Love Brooks … always loved Brooks … quite didn't understand the LIV thing … probably the injuries but the guy can win and win big ! I hope he wins the US Open … there I'm on record.

Love that a Liv player won a major so quick ⛳

If Brooks gets to 8. He will be held in the Regard of Watson, Player, ect.

With brooks win, I'm sure more sponsors will be looking towards liv tour. Pga will become weaker.
Y’all both are terrible at understanding what the other is trying to say lol

The days of the PGA Tour monopoly are over. For the Majors, it's the case of survival and maintaining a global golfing audience.
If you are not a brainwashed media troll it a huge nothing burger… Politics never belong in sports… This is purely media driven!
How do I feel after the 2023 PGA championship? I feel sorry that an arrogant prick like Koepka had to win it.
