Sneakylong 😁The only 'protecting the field' in life is the family 'field'.
The guys bitching so much about these really good players jumping over, should be happy. It becomes easier for them to win now. At the same time, you will see fields with 'no names' winning, because Rory and the likes won't play certain places. And that will be even better.
I personally, like that these guys are going LIV. For the reason stated above. PGA, Rory, JT, and them, have got to shut up and let things go. It is to their benefit, along with the lesser players trying to hold on to their cards, or move up from other tours. 'Protect the field', fellas!!
