7 more golfers rumored to be leaving for LIV after the FedEx Cup. Cam Smith is expected but others rumored are Matsuyama, Leishman, Niemann and Varner.

Wow…. at this rate I’ll get a TON more done on the weekends when greed finally makes me stop watching golf and college football.

Maybe I’ll just actually go play golf all weekend instead of watching golf and college football. That would be a LOT more enjoyable anyway.
 
Evidently Hoggins does.

When you have unlimited money and years, does anyone watching even matter?

And again, LIV is like 3 months into existence and has gotten farther than any other upstart league across any sport. The threat is real and to minimize it is incredibly stupid.

What is the point of LIV if no one watches? The Saudis aren't just going to throw money at it indefinitely with no ROI. It's a bunch of glorified exhibitions with no stakes (because the players are paid up front) and it's difficult to watch.

We actually don't know that. From everything I've heard/read, they have like a 5 year runway with $10 billion.

Pretty sure to launder money and get it into the united states.
 
Sounds like some big changes for the PGA Tour, LIV out here making the PGA Tour better, thanks LIV!



In before @clonedude whines about them getting paid just for showing up.
 
The league will launch with six teams each consisting of 3 PGA TOUR players. Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy are the first two golfers committed to compete.

The custom-built arena will combine a data-rich virtual course with a state-of-the-art short game complex. TGL will offer a high-tech, high-energy fan experience with fans sitting greenside.

The inaugural TGL season kicks off January 2024 with a 15-match regular season, followed by playoffs and championship match
