Reed probably figures he’s got nothing to lose as nobody except Justine likes him anyways. He’s happy to stay with LIV, make a bunch of money and just be villain forever in his career.

Patrick Reed:  Arsonist complains about smoke getting in his eyes during fire he started.

absolutely hilarious that he is asking for that much money,   I hope the defending lawyers dig up Justine’s burner account that shows a level of paranoia and entitlement beyond the abilities of mortal human beings.

Here's probably a new defendant on the Patrick Reed lawsuit.  Guy happens to be spot on, IMO.   Love the take on Reed's lawyer.

Meanwhile the Saudi regime goes on with it's usual business:

Salma al-Shehab, a Leeds University student, was charged with following and retweeting dissidents and activists

 

In the bag: Callaway Mavrik SZ 10,5 driver (X stiff), Cobra King 4 wood (Stiff, 2006 model), Callaway Mavrik irons 4 - P+A (stiff), Cobra King Pur wedges 52, 56 and 60 (stiff) and Odessey white steel putter.  Very happy with the set and the gapping.

My goodness that regime goes overboard.  Isn't spending time on Twitter punishment enough?

But what about Patrick Reed's feelings?   No one is thinking of him and his butt-hurt.

I mean this is why I was so hard on CH3.   Yeah, nice guy and well respected and liked.   But he's leaving behind a life more than 99% of people in the US don't have for more money that is being paid for by people like this.

They could make a movie out of this, give Reed and a few others the main roles and call it “How to Lose Friends & Alienate People 2”.

Another astonishing detail about the Reed lawsuit -- he hired LARRY KLAYMAN as his f***ing attorney!

I was sent here by the Saudis in 2011 to prepare for this moment.

Wow, never mentioned you, and you don't fit the low number of messages nor the only posting about LIV I mentioned, but by all means wrap yourself with the mantle of victimhood.

It's like a Carly Simon song, simply replacing the word song with post, LOL.

Like who, specifically?

@jshots is not included there.

@GolfSwami, though, yeah. Sure.

He's literally only posted in this topic. And he's likely using an AWS VPN.

Yeah, @GolfSwami is specifically who I had in mind, and I think there were other up thread.  I was OBVIOUSLY not talking about @jshots since he fits neither of the criteria I mentioned.

Not sure how that joke comment is wrapping myself in victimhood but you are the antitrust law expert so I will defer to your authority.

I guess this is the thread to put this in, read a rumor that the PGA Tour might be guaranteeing 500K to exempt players. So if one makes 100K for the year, he gets 400K. Will have to wait for details after meeting is over.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

It's the nature of posting text only, I guess.  Sarcasm, mood, tone, etc don't always come through to the reader like you imagine it when writing.  (I know this very well first hand :))

For the record, I read your "Saudi" post as a tongue-in-cheek joke, so it wasn't a total miss. 🍻

From the article:

“It also says LIV golfers can play anywhere in the world provided it isn't the same week as a LIV Golf event. Graeme McDowell of Northern Ireland missed the Irish Open this year because it was the same week as LIV Golf Invitational-Portland.”

wow, that sounds familiar.  If players signed this, which is similar to PGA Tour regulations, then whining about suspensions just went next level.   Not to mention anti-trust concerns.
