Inside the Meeting: Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy Leading Effort to Create 18-Event PGA Tour Circuit With $20 Million Purses
According to two sources with knowledge of the players-only meeting earlier this week, PGA Tour players plan to make several bold suggestions to commissioner Jay Monahan.

The FirePit Collective also reported the 18-tournament concept as a “tour-within-a-tour’’ and the possibility that the PGA Tour, which is designated as a 501c-6, could renounce its non-profit status.

Among other ideas discussed was an annual stipend for players and whether the Tour should eventually have a conversation with LIV Golf, which launched in June and has signed several players to lucrative multi-year contracts.

They don’t say who brought it up and they do not say if it was even discussed. Doubtful this got past the bringing up stage. SI got one thing and ran with it. Pretty on par with Shipnuck.

So pretty much all the shite that guys asked for before LIV was a thing?

So all it took was losing 7 of the top 10 most popular players to get there?

Exactly! Great idea Tiger and Rory!! Let’s make our own tour with higher purses and less events. But, instead of Saudi blood money, let’s use Chinese money! FFS!!

That's what happens when they are anonymous.

Look in a mirror. Be prepared to replace it. You give new meaning to clueless.

If imitation is indeed the greatest form of flattery, LIV should be blushing.

If there is one singular miscalculation on the part of the PGA it was the degree of discontent among their golfer with the old business model.

I don't think Jay Monahan is going to have any of this as plan B, but all of this new info is at least fun to watch. Imagine the PGA players saying they want what LIV wants.
