PGA Tour has agreed to merge with Saudi-backed rival LIV

[nessen]

Benzema joins Saudi club. The whole news is just swamped with all things Saudi. Its absolutely incredible when you think about it.

Next women won’t be able to attend Newcastle matches.

This is a very sad day for the future of golf, what a total betrayal of the principles shown by the top end players over the past 2 years in rejecting the Al Qaeda league only to be sold out by those above them.

Jay Monahan is a c*nt!

 

[Roker Mackem]

I don’t watch golf so normally wouldn’t give a shit about this, however the fact they own the mags means this news has really pissed me off.

Here he is

Wait wait wait, the sort of person who might be the head of a professional golf organization might end up being a c*nt?

Even Staveley?

Even Staveley?

She's allowed as she is over 50% recycled plastic

There are different levels of c*ntishness, Monahan has just shown himself to be on a mag level of it.

It isn't good for the Ryder Cup. The split in mainstream golf created by LIV was utterly divisive and will be shit for team spirit thus making the Ryder Cup less of an event.

Golfers don’t care they are just after money
Make no difference to Ryder cup

 

[Carley Hill wanderer]

They make something like 700M-1B per day, The numbers are absolutely mindboggling and it's only going to get bigger and bigger.

They are going to become the most powerful country on the planet.

And a few greedy b******s letting it happen

Golfers don't get paid to play in The Ryder Cup and if they all just cared about money Rory, Rahm, Scheffler etc would all have signed up to LIV.

Yeah and when the Saudis get to fully control golf women won't be allowed to play. The Saudis aren't keen on them driving

A merger in the same way that Iraq merged with Kuwait.

The warning signs have been there for some time. It isn’t even subtle now.

Or like a fully grown adult moving back in with their parents. We all live here, it's all good. But who owns the house...

 

[CraigyLee]

Tbf to McIlroy he always said they need to get round a table and sort it out

No he hasn’t like he was very very Anti LiV at the beginning and rightfully so .. he only started to change his tune about 6 month ago

 

[DoctorMick]

Yeah, this is their attempt to move on from attracting world stars who are at the tail end of their career to world stars at their peak. At the moment, it's fine if they can pull in Messi, Ronaldo, Benzema etc. but, soon, they'll be the ones signing up Mbappe, Haaland, Bellingham, Weghorst etc. to play in their sportswashed GlobeTrotter four team league for ridiculous money.

How did Weghorst make that list?

 

[CraigyLee]

They haven’t been made to look silly, the pga has been made to look silly


Nah he can’t like


No chance like

People very naive, it’s literally their job

Nowhere else to go

Of course they have Jay Monahan sent them out to basically be the poster boys for the PGA tour and he’s now just threw them under the bus

PGA look like a set of fools that I agree with they’ve basically agreed to a deal that was there on the table 4 years ago yet Monahan didn’t want to know then and basically caused golf to implode the last 12 months

I like the analogy

I have to slip one in there to keep people alert.
