With Feherty joining, you can expect an announcement on a TV broadcaster soon. There's a market out there, so someone will stick their neck out and go for it.

It will not be a major network that already broadcasts golf, as no doubt they have already been told by the PGA Tour that they will be black-balled forever if they take it on. Sorry folks, but that's just the way monopolies do things! They certainly couldn't care less what the golf-viewing public thinks...

I guess Hendrik can't have his cake and eat it too. 🍰 Look for Thomas Bjorn or possibly Luke Donald to get the Captaincy.

Has Stenson actually announced he's leaving? Or was this a preemptive strike?

    He wanted the job, but was in violation of his contract that he signed not supporting the Ryder Cup and DP World Tour exclusively. So he got the boot.

    β€œThere's been a lot of speculation back and forth, but I am fully committed to the captaincy and to Ryder Cup Europe and the job at hand,” Stenson said then. β€œThe captain does sign a contract. He's the only one that does that. Players and vice captains don't. But the captain has an agreement, and those agreements are between Ryder Cup Europe and the captain, so I'm fully committed to my role as a captain and working hard toward the result we want in Rome.”

    β€œThe successful candidate will be expected during his tenure to commit to supporting the Ryder Cup and the DP World Tour exclusively, and therefore, by extension, not supporting or promoting other properties [including, without limitation, other Tours, Leagues, Series or Competitions].”

    Stenson knew and he got exactly what he asked for and was expecting. Now, go about your business bud.

    What about Donald Trump telling PGA Tour players to sign and take the $ before an inevitable PGA and LIV golf merger!

      Eguller He just wants $$$$ flowing into his courses and his branding

      The dude will bite back when he can find a way to.

      Spuzz He almost made 15 minutes of fame literal. Great for a brief period and then some unpredictably sporadic appearances high on the leaderboard.
