Okay, here is a place for the Golfers to talk about tournaments, clubs, swing help or thoughts.
Today is the Players Championship, which I think ought to be the 5th Major. Largest pot in the PGA. The daunting 17th, which seems to bring excitement every year. At least we will get to see Sergio blow up yet again.

Haven’t watched any of their events and probably won’t. It’s not because I hate the guys for leaving. I just don’t care about second tier pro leagues [Reply]

Felt that way in the beginning but starting to come around on the idea. Not that LIV is very watchable, I've tried and tapped out twice. The team format thing is ridiculous and a distraction imo.
BUT, it's already forced the PGA to up their game. Phoenix Open had the best field in its history this year because of it. 3 of the 4 majors will still have both fields combined if I'm not mistaken. Plus the PGA was starting to get more and more political, so hopefully a rival tour will tamp that down a bit.
My guy Rahm 4-jacked the 1st hole for a double.
Having ESPN+ is worth it for the golf alone. Masters brass is still living in the 20th century in terms of live coverage they allow on TV. [Reply]

If a bunch of washed-up guys want to cash checks in a third-tier league, that's their right-- just don't denigrate or sue the tour that made you all multi-millionaires because you violated their rules in following a rebel organization started by a bitter choke artist with a vendetta [Reply]

-It is a real cool format
-A lot of top rated players
-Neat to watch both team play and individual play
-Pros in shorts look like they are having fun
-Music on the course
-Interviews during the round
-Who wants to watch shitty PGA events with scrubs like the Valero Open. It sucked.
-They are two different types of events and cool to watch BOTH without having to be a PGA snob, which is now apparent how much douchery the PGA is [Reply]

I think the Phoenix Open has crossed the Rubicon. I am shocked that a player, caddie or official hasn't gotten hit in the head or face with a beer can.

You think guys like Cameron Smith, Keopka, Matthew Wolff, Bryson, Anser, Paul Casey, and Joaquin Niemann are washed up? Bold strategy, Cotton... [Reply]
