If LIV is still around, how do we know if someone they added is good? More than likely it is because they were on these other tours first where they earned their way to the top. How do we know that this prince isn't good? Maybe he is incredible and would be the best. However, you are dismissing him for a reason. He hasn't done anything to prove his prowess in recognized tournaments.


Why does everyone think that coming up with some sort of adjustable metric would be so difficult?

Good lord. Beat the hell out of that straw man.
That is what liv players and yourself is arguing. If you play golf, you should be assigned a ranking. It’s the job of the OWGR tk figure out a players rank regardless of where they play

Please point to where I said they didn’t care? I said they would be fine. Again, if you have to assign to me arguments I never made, perhaps you should think about why that is.

There are some young golfers on liv that won’t be playing majors who likely would be if they didn’t choose liv. Sure, they have money, but they won’t be playing the top golf events. Seems a little less than “fine”. Where as the young good golfers that didn’t choose liv will make lots of money and play the majors.

The expectation that the OWGR change and basically allow every single golf event in the world including member tournaments at country clubs to get ranking points, instead of LIv making a tweak and confirming, is lean insanity and hubris

Well, clearly their priority was the money. You’re a golf purist. You wouldn’t care about the money if you were a pro. We get it. To those that prioritized the money…they will be fine.

Name a single person besides you to make such a ridiculous claim. All I said was math isn’t hard. Nobody is making your absurd claim. What a pathetic straw man.

It isn’t. That is non responsive to my question, though.

Many others have agreed. If it’s the job of the OWGR to rank players regardless of the tour or anything else as Gooch and others say, they need to be looking at every golfer playing out there. If not, it’s not truly what they want

They want the impossible according to their statements. But truly, they just want “rank us on liv”, not a risky rank golfers regardless of where they play or how they play. It’s just bullshite from them

Please point to me where Gooch says country club weekenders should be ranked, as you claim.

If you have to lie and assign an argument never made, perhaps you should re-think your “point.” What a joke to take that and claim anything near to what you claim. Ridiculous.

Can you not read

If a player shouldn’t have to conform to anything to get ranked as he says, and it’s only about being worthy of being ranked, agains as he says, he is absolutely saying that if Rahm or someone else only played country club events, they absolutely should still be ranked. Please try and argue otherwise. You just don’t like it because it makes your entire argument go to shite

Again. No sane individual would take this to mean a country club game should be ranked.

Reducio ad Absurdum. Perhaps don’t question others intellectual capacity when you have to resort to logical fallacies (which, clearly, you weren’t even aware you were doing) and assigning arguments never made to make an extremely weak point. Good Lord.

it’s what he is arguing for 100%

If Rahm quit the tour, and decided he was going to play 10 member-guest events across the country, hooch 100% is arguing for him to receive points. I mean Rahm would clearly still be one of the best players in the world, so it should be the job of the OWGR to assign points to him correct?

ok man. You’re arguing a logical fallacy. Can’t argue with someone that doesn’t recognize that. It isn’t a new thing. You think you’re being clever, but it’s just a really bad argument. Hence the well known logical fallacy. There is a friecking Latin phrase for what you’re doing. You aren’t bright enough to understand that.

I can’t help you grasp it. Keep telling everyone gooch said the country club weekenders need to be ranked. You’re making a fool of yourself. I was just trying to help.

I am 100% following the logic of you and the LIv players

If Jon Rahm quit the pga tour but continued to practice, we both agree he would still be a top golfer? Yes

You are saying the OWGR should rank golfers based on skill and not having to conform to any rules on where or how they play? Yes

So you and the liv players logic absolutely argues for Rahm to get ranked playing country club events.

To an absurd conclusion. That is a quintessential example of reducio ad absurdum. A well known logical fallacy that has been around for centuries. well done.

So it is or isn’t the job of the OWGR to rank players around the world based on who is the best regardless of the players having to conform to any tour?
