  1. The pga tour and golf channel and all those media partners calling themselves news really should take this comment to heart. Because they are not helping golf at all with this narrative.

  2. It’s not about the money. It is the honor to win such-and-such tournament.
    Of course, if it pays well, much better

  3. It’s always about the MONEY and they should try and get every damn penny off these greedy sponsors and tours! Good for them!

  4. The reason you don't think about money is because you already have 20 million in equity accounts, and the revenue stream is a mighty river.

  5. whatever money you've earned is very well deserved, obviously there's only a handful of Athletes who can do what Xander does,week in week out year in year out, since you could swing a golf club, as a very young kid, They have a word out there called Destiny, im sure Xander thought of whats happening right now in his life many, many times when he was a young kid. This is one Athlete im legitimately happy for every time hes plays well or wins. Go Gettem brother, no letup.

  6. The 4 majors should pay the most money. Those are the most important to win. So the fed ex chase is a marketing gimmick… few people care….people love the competition in the MAJORS !!! ⛳⛳⛳⛳

  7. Let's get something out there straight away. Getting to elite level, the top 1% of experts in sport takes some doing. They earn lots of money and it is relative. A CEO of a massive plc earning £10 million per year is more disgusting. These people get their jobs because they are steered in their careers. The company does crap they still get paid. A pro golfer plays crap he don't earn any money. The high earnings might be once in a lifetime. Look at John Daly, Sandy Lyle they are journey men

  8. Incredible explanation. You guys are so incredible and put in such hard work to get so great it doesn’t even seem possible to play like you guys.
