So, aside from BDC, who's going to the Saudi League? A lot of chatter on this subject recently...

I still think TV coverage will either make it or kill it. If it's on Golf Channel Sunday mornings at 7AM.........bye bye.

Saudi's will just buy their own channel in the U.S. if they don't get on a major one...

That may be a good alternative to watching the weekend Euro golf on Sat. and Sun. morning which I don't fine appealing.

garyt1957 Why should they be criticized for not taking a stand when their own govt won't.

Maybe the "Khashoggi Memorial" might move the needle?

I think I'll find some trim to paint.

potbunker Go help @Typhoon, he could probably find some for you.

From Twitter: Just spoke with my GM Chip. He has confirmed he’s starting a breakaway league that will compete on Tuesday nights. Claims he has commitments from Cathy Spunt, Dan the UPS man, and two other “big names” (that he wouldn’t disclose). This is clearly war.

Shocking!
The ownership of Bedminster and Doral are in talks with the Saudi's as US tournament sites.

I don't understand the drama about this and the PGA Tour looks silly for responding the way it has - this is like a job offer for the players. Leverage one employer against another and the PGA Tour acts like it is the only business in town when golf should be about how good the players are, no matter where they play. If I were on tour I'd give it a wait and see approach.

Just as the players have the right to determine when and where they play, the PGA Tour has the right to protect their own business interests.

A handshake and loyalty used to carry some weight. Not anymore. It's all about "me getting mine."

Let's trash the vehicle that made us famous ( and wealthy ). Yeah, that the right thing to do.

Ooooooopsey, Phil.

Now Phil is in self-imposed timeout. Hmmmmm??? Or maybe "suggested" he take some time off.

Needs new hats:
1) new sponsor for his hat (self-sponsored by his coffee company?)
2) Old hats no longer fit that once overinflated ego head.

I've decided not to join the Saudi League as well. It just isn't the best move for me at this time.

Well, I haven't received an offer from the Saudi's, yet...But if it includes Greens Fees and only 12 Tournaments (weeks) a year + Travel Expenses - and a number with a bunch of zeros at the end, I might consider...I'm easy, but not cheap...
