Return the Mexico Open to Trump Doral and get rid of the corporate DEIBS that’s infected the PGA tour.
Should be playing in Florida this week. THEN maybe the event would have a better field
My opinion is why not stratefy the tours even more? And make movement between them more fluid. Make it 3 levels of tour for example. PGA Tour is highest, a middle tour and Korn Ferry below that. Guys win a week on lower tour, they move up for a start in higher tour. Relegate guys down in mid season as they have bad finishes or missed cuts. Signature events already do this, I'm saying make it a full tour of best players instead of some individual events being elevated. This actually equalizes the skill level too because lower tour guys who wouldn't normally make cuts on PGA tour as often will now make more cuts and get stable money. Then at end of year you still have the money list thing to reset the tour cards for next season but it's total money made over the 3 tours.
You're idiot president needs to stay out of sport. He's a cheater, loser and scumball! Don't ruin the game of golf like you're ruining the United States of America stop ruining golf like you're ruining the image of the United States of america. Stop. End message
Liv players are low lifes
I don’t miss the liv guys at all. This is more to save the tour. If they didn’t come to a deal it was going to be unstoppable for the pga to continue. PIF had unlimited funds and would have picked all of the great players.
Merge. Don't merge. Don't care. I've moved on. They both deserve what they get.
The biggest problem for the tour is there are players on it that would never have been there if it wasn't for LIV. These players totally oppose a reconciliation because it means some of them will be back in the minor leagues playing Monday qualifiers or seeking sponsor invites.
Maybe extend invitations to the top PGA guys toe come and play some Liv events? That would be fair
I’m disappointed, why would they include donny hitler trump a known felon rapi5t and domestic terrorist in negotiations? The moron can hardly make a true statement when he’s awake also everyone hates that orange orangutan.🦧!
the top PGAT are not looking out for these lower tier guys. And most of these lower tier guys ONLY got chances the last three years because of the spots opened by those who left. They got a free ride for 3 years……If they did not make the most of it, and move up in the rankings and secure a spot on PGAT …….too bad.
Wow, the PGA tour even screwed up the Mexican open. It was a kickass event, I guess it was wgc then. Ironically Phil won it one year. I want to say he was in a playoff with JT. The stars of the PGA Tour r too busy cashing checks with TGL dome golf. The Mexican open was a fun event for a while.
The PGA tour needs LIV and the way they know how to put on an event. I hope the decision isn’t made for the sake of the bottom of the tour players like Sam Ryder, or Joel day man. I want to watch the stars of the game
Don’t worry it’s gonna be a couple more years all you do is get the pga out of the way and let the players play where they want when they want it’s a simple fix
looks like everyone at Golf Channel headquarters got the memo to wear suits today.
NSW open had a better field 😅
I’m watching more women’s golf these days. Sick of the drama.
I don’t miss the bone saw guys at all. Let them wallow in their riches and let the rest of us enjoy golf.
Just leave it alone and be patient….open the fields back up to 125 …. There is plenty of up and coming talent … liv can slowly die… this is being sold as saving the pga when it’s really saving liv … suck it up…. The whole “problem “ Started when Liv paid the ungodly amounts of money to attract some talent and PGA panicked thinking That they would lose everybody to these huge incentives, but the truth is everybody doesn’t wanna play for the f’n Saudis…. There was never a problem. There’s plenty of money in the PGA and there’s plenty of talent coming. Get rid of the signature events and open the fields back up and let Liv die on the vine. If a few more players wanna go their fine good riddance.Just ride it out.
The best players in the world never played all the same events in the past. Other than the majors, players picked their spots.
Look at the FedEx St. Jude Classic before it became a playoff event.
Even Jack Nicklaus rarely played the Western Open in Chicago in the 70s and 80s.
We're really losing the great underdog stories and competitiveness that made the PGA Tour great.
Screw the LIV guys.
I thought the LIV tour was so great – let them stay there.
Why the hell is Trump involved in these discussions?! Talk about a conflict of interest.
PGA money all went UP due to LIV. The players should be thanking them. Phil Mickelson was right about PGA greed and now the players are reaping the benefits financially from Phil and LIV
I really don't think the fans want a merger – there's like 5 players on LIV that could be said to be 'missed'…and there's no pipeline for new players that anyone cares about. LIV adelaide had like 18K viewers average? When aberg won last weekend there were millions watching. I hate how these commentator never mention that if there's been a dip in PGA viewership, it's because the coverage is awful. You need 5 subscriptions just to watch one tournament all the way through
Way to go Tiger, Adam and Jay. You sold your souls to the Devil. For the good of golf? What a load of crap. You should have let LIV DIE and let those money grabbing traders beg to come back!! Notice how your PGA Tour website doesn't take any polls or even have a feedback mechanism? It's because you don't care about us, our opinion or humanity. Time to cancel you guys too!
Smaller fields are horrible for the fans. We want to see the total unknown challenging the leaders. I mean, the PGA Tour totally misses the boat on this.
Sounds like a small number of the top players will be getting very, very rich over the next few years. The product will be greatly diminished, so fewer people will be watching, but who cares about that when you can get rich right now. Someone else will pay the bill later.
