Sneakylong I wonder who will be the first LIV player to say 'I don't want to travel all around the world playing in all the required LIV events'. What will their punishment be for violating their agreements?

Since they are employees of LIV, I assume they could be fired. Then what? Sue them? 🤣🤣🤑

    As an Independent Contractor, I have had at the same time more than 1 active contract. Doesn't mean I'm an employee of any one of the companies. My obligations doesn't stop me from having multiple clients at the same time. If I don't perform, no pay, maybe no contract. And yes I sign an agreement not to share info between clients.

    Some will say it isn't the same but as I see it, it should be.

      Worked with many independent contractors when I was with AT&T. The independent contractors had to adhere to the same rules employees had to adhere to.

      Businesses are allowed to have rules. Break them and you suffer the consequences. Pretty simple.

        The 'want their cake and eat it too" is also a BS analogy.
        Hypocritical at best, but not surprising, given the sheep doing the bleating.
        Every Euro based player that left that tour to play the majority of events (or even 4 times more) on the PGA Tour, but still remained a card carrying member Euro member (made easier by the revision to 4 mandatory tournaments only and also keeping their Ryder Cup eligibility) is a member of the "cake and eat it too" group.
        The only difference is the amount of money at LIV being more than the PGA Tour, and special invite.
        Reeks of pettiness and jealousy to me, and nothing more, with big mouth Rory being the poster boy.

          European Tour has no problems with letting players play both theirs and LIV. 1 of them is leading their tourney today. Shame on him. 😅

          Spuzz … but, would Rory be opening his mouth at all if not being paid so handsomely by the PGA? They have to be getting something in return for his 1 hour of work per week position on their board, don’t they?

              Stu1961 Yeah, they get to write him a check for $40K every week. Privilege.
              When he turns 40, he'll realize he can't live off that, and seek employment elsewhere. 😄

                  Yes he will head back to his "home" tour and continue his legacy....of missing the cut at the Irish Open
                  bwahahahahahahahahahahaha

                    Here's some more hypocritical BS from Jay's beyotch Rory:

                    Apparently he took two weeks off and did not touch a golf club, nor did he eat healthy.
                    His family was more important than anything else.
                    First round of the Fedex "be all and end all, cake eaters wanna be here" tournament and he's 9 back already.
                    Must be nice to be so rich that you don't give a rat's ass about it, yet, shoot your big mouth off about others.
                    Here's a sign for him:

                    4 days later

                    azgreg TW is bringing a printout of his bank deposits, to reinforce the fact that one can become a billionaire on the PGA Tour.
                    Surprising that after the huge self-inflicted damage his account took, he has almost come back to that point.(net worth $800M)

                    LIV has passed the deadline with me. Screw them. 🖕

                        Par4QC You can't fool me. You probably used them as leverage to rework a deal with the Social Security Administration just like Sir Charles probably did with TNT. 💰️

                            johnnydoom SS was a tough go, I admit. Best I could do was nearly lock them in for +$153/mo. starting in Jan., + not raise Medicare more than $152. That way they can save face with a 'raise'. 😒
