LIV Golf (Saudi PIF), "Mergers," and More

Just finished the book today. PM certainly seems to have a rather sporadic personality. He’s done some really shitty things and said some really asinine things yet also done nice things for many different people. Hard to say what his ‘core’ really consists of. But as I’ve suspected I do believe that Phil isn’t near as smart as he thinks he is, and he has a true gambling addiction. I wouldn’t doubt his financial issues are more troublesome than anybody but Phil knows.

The field for the first event was supposed to come out today but apparently is not. Soon, but not today.

I wonder if Ty Webb and his college roommate Mitch Kumstein will be playing in the LIV?

They have 9 days until the first tournament. And there is supposed to be some sort of team draft beforehand, too! Still nothing. Doesn't seem like a recipe for success, but who knows. Imagine if you bought a ticket for this event.

Except for maybe DJ, big who cares for this?

Oh wait, they got Koepka! Chase, that is.

Disappointing but not surprising. None of those dudes on the LIV list give a shit about golf outside of how much money they can make

Could DJ be dis-invited from the Masters?

Dustin's father-in-law bailed on the Edmonton Oilers and went to play for the Los Angeles Kings...

Did the Kings commit the same atrocities as the Saudis?

Hardly the same thing.

We all know why it’s in the best interests for DJ’s ‘family.’

Supposedly Phil could have gotten $40M as a sponsor for like the next 20 years. So weigh that against whatever it's rumored Phil will have gotten from the Saudis.

I cannot comment on this without getting into politics.

I'll just say that as much as I liked DJs big dick ego, he was always dead behind his eyes. I'm disappointed.

    • The Golfing Machine calls a shorter full swing motion “pitching” IIRC but I don’t think that’s what was going on here. Did you get video or anything? Launch monitor data?
    • ^ right here. A short game pitching motion is not the same as a full swing in feel nor intent. It’s just not a mini-swing at all. Now if the instructor said to make slow full swings with a 6i and try to hit them only 100 yards, that would be more in line with what I view full swing instruction to be.
    • How does he fit for clubs with that setup?  I get this to an extent, but plenty of players have slightly different patterns with different clubs throughout their bag, but using that logic why not start with 3 foot putts or 5yd chip shots? I have quite different feels for a 20-40yd pitch shot than I do for a 140yd shot. Loft presentation at setup and impact, ground contact, weight transfer (or lackthereof), etc are all different on a 20-40yd shot vs a full iron shot.  If you enjoyed the lesson and found value in it that's great, personally I'd be a bit annoyed if I went in and wanted to work on full swing stuff and this guy has me doing 20-40yd pitch shots for an hour with my lob wedge.
