  • Phil Mickelson winner in inaugural PIP bonus, Tiger 2nd? (Not official)

Bravopilot While they are essentially independent contractors held to a standard that is not independent.

All the PGA Tour pros agree to and sign the Tour's TOS before they tee it up. - basically.

    Eguller Yes, and the Tour loves to refer to them as Independent, but really they are not. PGA Tour knows it has the upper hand and will continue until the pros have leverage, which was all Mickelson talked about. Another reason the union concept, which I hate, never amounted to much.

      Eguller Yeah, that is what the PGA Tour is famous for, the Players. However, the Player's money is key and unsurpassed--to date--anywhere.
