I think it is done purposely to make the season championship interesting.



I can appreciate you admitting that. Both systems are dumb. The FedEx cup is like the college post season to me. I get why things have gotten to where they are, but I rather go back to the how it was before all the changes: a FedEx cup champion and Tour Champion can be different golfers.

Sounds like there should be big crowds out there (15-20K/day)

Yes, thru 7 holes he is DFL at +3.

Seems the relegation competition will be between Ogletree & Pereira trying to pass up Stenson

Wonder if Poulter will rejoin the Euro tour after this year.

Maybe he is checked out. I honestly would be surprised if he is back on LIV next year if his contract is up

He's literally won 5 of the 12 tournaments and Rahm is only 12 points back without winning a tournament.


Looking more into it, while Niemann has won 5/12 events. Rahm has beat him in 7 out of 12 tournaments including 3 2nd place finishes out of those 7.

All that to say, Niemann just needs to finish ahead of Rahm to win the individual championship this weekend & he’s currently ahead by 3 shots.

59 watch for Munoz

What a dart from 126y out on his 18th hole. Birdie putt coming up for a 59.

ETA: drains it!! 14 birdies on par 71 course with a double bogey!

Stenson T-4 currently at -11 so seems he is sticking around.

Ogletree & Poulter T14 at -7.


Projections after R2…. Looking like Stenson will be the only remaining captain for Majesticks GC. Or Poulter/Westwood non-playing captains

Wait, relegation and the “open system” for liv is only the very last 6 of 54 golfers being dropped?


Only 3 of 20 Premier League teams are relegated? what a shite league.

Comparing golf relegation to the Premier League isn't a great comparison, but the Premier League still relegates a higher percentage of their participants than LIV.

11 percent vs 15 percent. Which percentage, precisely, makes a league a laughing stock and the other a premier league???

Why don’t you compare liv to the other golf league regarding how losing status/open system and relegation works? Maybe im crazy but that seems like a better comparison than soccer

If LIV can manage to get to 11% this year without going back on some of the relegation, that would be a step in the right direction of not being a laughingstock.

He had a child. Some people respond to that well and some don't. It's 50/50. I think he lost a bit of his edge.

Great start to the final round

DJ vs Munoz
Rahm vs Niemann

& the constant movement of guys around the drop zone.
