If they gave Phil 200 mil, wonder how much the PGA got.
Zero respect for the PGA.
someone should have just clobbered the guy over the head and called it a day…far left scum
Most people in the comments don't even play golf so your opinions mean nothing
Everything, I repeat everything, has a price.
The players on the PGA that people come to watch should make their own league and bankroll/ invest. That's the only way to keep the sport clean.
Amazing how American forget who funded the 9/11 terrorists, its always about the almighty $$$$$$
The Hypocrisy of the United States Government and commentators and you tubers is astounding.The USA has been supporting dictators and brutal regimes all over the world for decades as long as The Saudi Regime Royal family kept the oil flowing and invested their petro dollars in the USA and in US Fighter jets and missiles no one had a problem in the USA Bush,Obama, Trump and Biden all went to Saudi Arabia to kneel in front of the Royal Family ,Biden Fist bumping Murderer MBS as FDR said about the many dictators the USA supported " they may be sons of bitches but they are our sons of bitches "……
Always about the $….. Profit over People the AmeriKKKan way
It's not a stunning decision. The PGA realizes the Saudis have almost unlimited amounts of money to spend. Same thing happened with the NFL and the AFL. It's all about money
TYT, are you high???? Pga has been playing at Trump courses for years! Rick, you don't know what you are talking about! The DP tour, recognized by the PGA, plays in Dubai! PGA money is JUST AS DIRTY!!!! DON'T KID YOURSELF!
It is an absolutely DAMNING one by the PGA and an extraordinary lesson for folks about company 'loyalty'. Granted, this is different and sport, but sometimes people go all in with their companies, defend it, 'drink the cool-aid' and carry the flag and then the company buys another, or gets bought, then they deem the cheerleader 'surplus to requirements.' BTW, I believe Norman got the boot too. VERY unceremoniously. IMHO it's also the way some people look at politics. For example, people make bizarre stances on a party regardless of what they believe, blindly going along with whatever the initiative is. Totally unable to see or say: "Yeah, that liberal initiative is damaging and irresponsible" or "Yeah, that conservative initiative is damaging and irresponsible." They just blindly go with the 'party', even though the party they're on the sword for might be bending them over.
Such are the vagaries of the modern world…
It's all about the money ! Period ! I don't know what golf has done for history , I know nations have paused a war to have a soccer match , but a never known a war to momentarily cease so a golf tournament can be held.
TREASONOUS SCUM OF A SPORT! THE SAYING 9/11…."NEVER FORGET"………….IS FORGOTTEN FOR MONEY !!!! SCREW THIS TREASONOUS SPORT!!!!!
This was inevitable when we live under Capitalism. When money rules all, society gets sick. You can't sustain a civilization when you worship at the feet of something that doesn't even exist.
What "good" has the game of golf had on history? That statement alone is hilarious.
Tiger has gone conspicuously quiet on this decision. As has Rory. Big surprise.
Once again, this country, who yells and screams about Communism and the human rights violations of China, constantly borrows money from China. So this merger is a drop in the bucket. The ones on top sell the ignorant masses on patriotism but they don’t believe in it. All hail the almighty dollar.
And there you have it… PGA were never against LIV, they just wanted their cut. 😒
The PGA golfers took a MORAL stance against LIV: now that they’ve merged, let’s see how sincere that stance really is.
Suckers! LIV is like Satan !
Look! I don’t care, I don’t watch the P.G.A anymore.
Who cares. It`s not even a real sport
Take the money. Trump’s just as bad as the Saudi’s. America invaded Iraq for 20 years and murdered thousands. C’mon man.
FIFA 2.0
INSURRECTION 😅
saudi arabia doing the same thing in football. 300m a season for benzema, 100m a season for kante, offered messi 400m a season, ronaldo on like 200m a season. this is obvious sports washing.
All compasses are moral but some compasses are more moral than others 😮
Will Rory play the Asian tour now, on principle and all that?
911 Shame.
Golf courses are a waste of water. Those things should be astroturfed over or turned into parks/nature preserves. Climate change is here and it’s now and we need to act with a little more foresight. Lame game for millionaires..
Every financial goal requires patience, dedication and consistent spirit knowing that investment is currently the most lucrative business in the world, BTC is positively changing people's lives. I stopped panicking about my BTC the very moment I started working with Mr K last year, his confidence and skills is on a maximum level..
Why is it the guys that hate trump always look like nerds?
Absolutely disgusting. The PGA sold out to terrorist.
The PGA has no idea what loyalty is. They sold out. LIV had no chance of surviving.
Looks like I'll be watching the youtube golfers from now on. The people behind the liv money are the same people that funded the 9-11attacks.
