MartinD the captain should meet the same eligibility criteria as the players

It seems I recall somebody speculating the Captain could play due to injuries/sickness recently, so there must be something to this stipulation? I can't remember when that was. Maybe when Tiger was involved? or Phil?

"Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund head Yasir Al-Rumayyan said Saturday that any LIV Golfer who shoots 54 will be awarded $54 million." 🤑

Are they now promoting putt-putt ?

    I HAD one too, and sold it about 8 years ago...

    As I posted before the DP World Tour signed a strategic alliance with the PGA Tour last year. Can’t see the DP Tour cutting the throat of the PGA Tour after signing such an agreement.

      This is one reason we probably won’t see a major network broadcasting LIV Golf. Who’s going to buy adds on that broadcast? No company would risk such a boycott.

      Except maybe Saudia (formerly Saudi Arabian Airlines). Lol

        Sneakylong You would think with all the $$ being thrown at the players, they could find some major network to do the broadcast, for just compensation, just to get it on the air in the U.S.. After all, huge sums of money apparently has a very sweet taste.

        Do not need any commercials.

          Sneakylong. Money talks, as we're seeing with the LIV tour. Would they do it? Not likely. Could they do it and cripple the PGA ? Absolutely

            I watched it on a local free underfunded TV station on Sunday, from Hamilton, Ontario. (CHCH)
            If that is possible already (and it's early) then anything is possible.

            I hope the LIV golf league succeeds based solely on the fact that it seems to bother so many people lol

            Oh and if the PGA tour wants to survive, they need a way for someone to view the coverage without having to subscribe to multiple streaming services. I have ESPN plus and it is a nightmare to navigate.

            If a major broadcaster did that (no commercials) then they themselves would risk some backlash. There was a broadcaster in Pittsburg who was in talks with LIV. Nothing came of it though.

            Not sure a regional broadcast is what they’re looking for. Social Media is most likely where they’ll stay.
