Last time I was on a yacht the fuel bill was over 27k and it took almost five hours to dock, refuel, and get back out the channel. Just about whole day wasted.

Why can't a player take the money and still be eager to win all the tournaments he plays in? I keep seeing this argument that if they take the money, they won't be motivated to win. That's complete BS.

It's an argument by noncompetitive PGA dick riders. I would expect nerd journalist that probably aren't strong enough to pick up a golf club like Rovell to make an arguement like that. It's embarrassing

Nah Bruh, the rich like to just buy old cheap ones and put them up on cinder blocks in the front yard. You don’t actually get a yacht to use it silly

Just trying to talk with my best friend this morning

Side note I can’t fricking stand Gary Player. I know he is loved and a media darling and dna favorite yada yada, but when I listen to him I always get a tingling that I want to punch him in his face

Him calling Henrik Stenson poor was funny though. Player such a prick

It's so bad it's funny. Him going after Chamblee at the Open is an all time rambling video.

GOOD MORNING DAMON

I didn't see the comment, but Stenson lost a shite pile of money in the Stanford fraud.

ETA: I loathe Gary Player.

I just have never really seen someone that thinks his own words and thoughts are so important as Gary Player. Him and trump are real close friends, I can’t imagine what those two ego maniacs are like when they get together. I imagine them both just simultaneously talking not listening to the other and both gradually getting louder trying to drown the other one out

Before people melt, I voted for trump and would vote for that fat orange bastard again if he was on the ticket

ETA: I wouldn’t vote for him though if Player was his running mate

Most of the players have already said that playing less golf was an incentive for them to go to LIV. They also said that LIV is more loose and the players all feel like family.

Add in the fact that guys like Koepka and DJ have never been the most motivated and that Cam Smith would probably rather be fishing then I can see why some would say that. Also, the fact that a lot of guys they have are near the end of their competitive careers like Sergio, Stenson, Phil, and Pat, then that also adds fuel to this argument.

In the end, we will find out how the guaranteed money affects the competitiveness or not.

This makes me believe that the new PGA standard of the top golfers playing in 20 regular season events will go over like a lead balloon. Rahm already suggesting that Monahan needs to revisit his master plan. The natives down on the reservations are still restless.

Maybe he never did.

Legacy last way longer than money, but you can't buy a jet with legacy.

I get guys who have no money, have been grinding their entire life, 20-50 million makes a huge difference. Honestly, your life isn't gonna change much when you go from 50 to 150 million.

I agree. The Tour needs to slow down and create a solid plan for all tour players.

I'm not a fan of the PIP evaluation system. Cam Young proved this year that the Tour already has a good pipeline system for new Talent.

Let the top players be based on ability alone. And it should be the Top 36.

LIV' s strong financial position will not help them in the anti trust suit.

2,000 gallons at 5 bucks per. If you can’t afford that….maybe you shouldn’t be on the golf board. I’m beginning to think you might play munis. Yeesh.

Pierceson Coody is currently out of a Tour card for next year. He won a Korn Ferry event and was number one of PGA Tour U's standings.

But Will McGirt and Sean O'Hair are currently in

I mean are you arguing the pga tour doesn’t have a good pipeline for bringing in young talent? Because that was the posters point you seem to be arguing

In the last few years, they have brought this new talent in

Scheffler
Burns
Zalatoris
Young
Theegala
Schauffle
Wise
Riley


do I need to keep going? He didn’t say the system was setup perfectly, just that it produces new talent. I didn’t even think you would argue that
