So true! Those at the top of the PGA management the very people the players are currently paying to run their tour will put a deal together and end up with generational wealth. The players who stayed true to tradition will miss the boat on millions. Rahm was smart! Anyone who hasn’t seen the writing on the wall after the secret meetings between the PGA and LIV is being foolish. They should have realized when their Commissioner went incognito they were being sold down the river. By the way has his mysterious illness ever been explained?
An excellent point, Monahan's absence was never explained.
Where are Speith's parents? Four hundred million on the table and they want him to preserve "tradition"? As his game goes south and he becomes mid-tier? Don't they know Hunter Mahan and Jason Duffner?
The two will merge, the payday's will go away. And Rahm will look like a genius.
Not poor Greg Norman. They'll continue to trash him and relegate him to the dustbin of history. When he was the one that made it all happen. Edison gets all the credit. Where is Tesla in the discussion?
Golf...I should have known! Reading your daily column is a lot like watching Jeopardy or being a fan of that show. During major tournaments one rarely sees a sports category, while they focus on more "worldly" and challenging categories like history, art, poetry, literature, geography, and science. But, in leaner, non-tournament times, we are occasionally treated to the rare sports oriented set of questions.
I too have lived through the AFL-NFL merger, the ABA-NBA merger, the expansion of hockey, the explosion of soccer as the world's #1 sport, and now...the PGA-LIV situation. While always a bit more of an NFL,NBA,NHL, and MLB fan than that of golf, I enjoy the game, used to play a lot, and remember Greg Norman as one of the greats of my time. He's also a wildly successful in business and a very intelligent person. The way he has been treated by the stodgy blue bloods of the PGA is horrendous, and the divide between the two golf bodies has actually soured my view and driven me away from the game.
Can you imagine if back in the day, the NFL had decided to blackball the great John Unitas (a proponent of NFL-AFL expansion at that time), restrict his participation, or tarnish his legacy? Its time for the collective golf powers to get their heads out of their asses and realize this divide is a continuing absurdity that tarnishes the product in the eyes of the fanbase.
