Par4QC Yeah, don't like him and hope he gets his contract. Good riddance

His transition to LIV would be much easier to swallow if he hadn't run his fucking mouth against it so much. What a douche-nozzle. Bye Rory.

I think the Saudis are just jacking the PGA Tour around for fun. They have money to burn, so why not get some entertainment out of it.

    sdandrea1 That also.

    Just seems like every time he's in a tournament, the announcers feel the need to build hype...he's always going to win them. He's been in some low grade tourneys and never sniffed a win. They need to realize he has passed his peak. Maybe too early, but imo, he has passed it. 'Just another good golfer'. Might still win some, might not, but will hang around closely. Some times.šŸ˜‰

      $850 million would be very difficult to turn down - even for someone estimated to already be worth over 250 million. That said, I find it really odd that thereā€™s no direct or credible source corroborating this story . Iā€™ll not even acknowledge, much less believe, it until there is.

        Par4QC while he is good, I'm inclined to agree, past his peak. He'll be able to keep making money playing, he's still good enough to get that done.
        Although, when the next batch of kids comes up and starts giving everyone a run for the money, rory might not be able to keep making as much...

        So much for that rumor. šŸ™„

        ā€œFor the rest of my careerā€™: Rory McIlroy reiterates stance amid LIV Golf rumor.ā€

        ā€œI honestly donā€™t know how these things get started,ā€ McIlroy told Lewis. ā€œIā€™ve never been offered a number from LIV, and Iā€™ve never contemplated going to LIV. Again, I think Iā€™ve made it clear over the past two years that I donā€™t think itā€™s something for me.

        Doesnā€™t mean I judge people that have went and played over there. I think one of the things that I have realized over the past two years is that people can make their own decisions for whatever they think is best for themselves, and who are we to judge them for that. But personally for me, my future is here on the PGA Tour, and itā€™s never been any different.ā€

          Sneakylong So much for that rumor. šŸ™„

          He could still turn about face for the $, but he'd have to disappear for the rest of his career. šŸ¤£

            Looks like Adelaide built a stadium around the 12th hole to mimic what they do in Phoenix.

              They did that last year and were ridiculed for being wannabes.
              lol
              However, I think they were more civilized than the goons in Phoenix.

                Spuzz and were ridiculed for being wannabes.

                I think itā€™s a great idea for any pro event that has a par 3 that allows for it. Hats off to Phoenix for making it a big thing.

                Most of humanity is more civilized than those yahoos........

                Kind of bummed out. I didn't realize that LIV was going to be right up the road in Nashville the week after the U.S. Open. Too late to change plans now, but I didn't know they would be there until YouTube ads started showing up last week.

                Yesterday I heard bloviating from golf broadcasters about how everyone that went to the LIV tour knew what they were getting in to and LIV made no attempt at concessions to change their format and accommodate OWGR. True, but not complete. Never really heard anyone ask what concessions OWGR attempted to make and meet them in the middle knowing that several of the best golfers in the world play that tour. Not sure how to find out, but I have a feeling the exhibition tour probably now has more major wins than most of the 23 tours represented. It seems to me that a guy that finished 6th and 2nd in two majors this year should have been assessed higher than 38th. Cameron Young, who I actively root for and think is worthy of his ranking, was ranked 15 spots higher at 23. It may be the way it is, but by not wishing to include LIV as eligible, the OWGR is now not a credible source of accurate rankings. LIV is actually establishing credibility and OWGR is giving it away.

                Hey toraider, can we change the title of the thread to LIV Golf?

                I knew Rahm was stout, but didn't realize he actually looks bigger than Koepka. Two titans in a playoff with Koepka winning. They tore up The Greenbrier.
