I know the Saudis are not into human rights but they got the $$$, according to Michelson.

Phil might want to hire an extra security guard since it appears he single handedly crushed the SGL with his foolish comments. If the Saudis don’t want to kill him, Greg Norman probably does

Phil is actually campaigning for a better deal for PGA golfers. In the world of youtube, there is lots of $ to be had if the players could access video of their own swings/shots but they don't so they can't.

Really? They can’t go make a video of themselves hitting shots at a non tour event? I mean what If Phil just wanted to video himself playing golf at a club on a Tuesday?

Yes, of course they can. Phil’s wants are ridiculous. He wants what ZERO professional league would ever give away. He wants free rights to the actual tournament footage

This entire ordeal has simply shown how the players actually view Phil and how ridiculous Phil is with the views on himself

FIGJAM makes all the more sense

NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, tennis don’t have that either. Phil has made hundreds of millions ($800) and is bitter because it could have been more. If that’s his fight he’s not fighting for the little guy because nobody would pay for their videos, photos or media rights, etc.

PGA would have been just fine without Phil. Phil lived a fairy tale life because of PGA tour and nobody would have ever heard of him without them. He repays them by advocating for a new league?

We’ll see if he complains about those rights at Augusta National since they also keep those media rights.

Punishing players for playing another tour is just fricking wrong.

It's just down right dictatorship.

I agree 100%.
It’s as simple as that.
Pay the talent.

Phil is an a-hole and always has been.

Somehow he's also pretty likeable. It is odd.

Guy I used to take from was at one time the head rules official for the USGA so he's been around Phil a lot. Told me Phil is complete a-hole and fake as can be. His nickname on tour is Phony Phil. And said his former cadie Bones is a POS.

Phil is a lot of things, but fake is not one of them.
