So at least half would be able to usurp their perceived authority, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Masters is the most watched golf event every year and it’d be a huge blow to the PGA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand the Open kind of being it’s own thing. But how in the hell do you let the Masters be it’s own thing?!?! PGA screwed up not making that air tight.

Remember when they paid the commercial rights out of pocket so no commercials would be shown or the protests about them not allowing women members? Deep pockets and tradition and they do what they want almost all the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its over family, its over morals, its over friends/employees/colleagues. Wealthy old men in positions of power would sell out their own children for a paycheck. They handled this entire situation horribly and it goes far beyond the whole 'gotta get that bag!' nonsense 90% of these shortsighted people on social media are touting. Its about the Who not the What. I hope that Tiger retires and focuses all of his wealth/power/pull for the game of golf into a PGA Tour v2 and watch this **** show run itself into the ground while he takes all of the high level players/friends with him.

candyman93 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Just wait until the Saudis want influence in basketball. Lebron will get offered a 500 mil contract at age 40. They’ll never touch the NFL because it’s such a regional sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don’t care enough about basketball. No one watches their league. They’d have to make another league in America. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
