Asked if anybody had cut him off, DeChambeau answered, “Yeah, definitely, I’m sure you...

 

 

He's trying to "grow the game". 

Can't figure out why Tiger wouldn't see that? 

Maybe one day Tiger will see that they are trying to "Grow the Game".

Is this something Tiger ever said, or even alluded to?

I don’t see how these tools think playing 54 hole shotgun starts with a miserably uninteresting team component going on simultaneously is growing the game. Clear Coke didn’t grow the product. Leave it alone. 🙂

Great news:

BREAKING-NEWS-1200-%C3%97-800-px-1.png

Next April First, the PGA of America and the LIV Golf tour will play their first ever inter-league matchplay event in Greenland.

 

April Fools! I knew this was fake when the used PGA instead of PGA Tour.

Watched LIV for a few minutes today. Was not turned on by Lee Westwood's legs. The course looked shabby. It is being played at The Crooked Cat, which used to hold some stage 2 Q-school events maybe 20 years ago. It is definitely not a place any of those guys can be proud to be playing at. I can't imagine their wives/girlfriends being pleased at having to trapes around that place. Definitely not glamorous. I was definitely taken aback.

I was surprised to see they were coming here. And I certainly prefer Panther Lake to Crooked Cat. Orange County National doesn’t seem like a place for an event like LIV holds. They’ve been constructing a lot of buildings and other stuff to prepare. But the buildings and ‘rec area’ aren’t very close to the course like they are at Bay Hill. I’d go just to see Paulina if anything….😂

The first I heard they were going to OCN, I thought wow, they would have to pump some serious money and time into that place. I do the stay and play there with some HS friends every year and while they are great tracks, they need some TLC. Fast forward to yesterday and I was shocked at the condition of the course on the CW coverage and thought that all these former major winners are playing substandard conditions. The coverage was just ok, but the team format and shotgun approach made it a little disjointed. The choice of music blaring was bizarre. At times very dance clubbish. If anything, its got to be better for some because it drowns out all the little noises when the guys are playing. 

I saw they highlighted Phil drive the green on #9, then showed him tapping in for par after they referenced a bad pitch (from the green). Uh, show the pitch shot! Honestly, they could have had a dedicated camera on 9 for the whole event. That is one of the better risk/reward holes out there and if they reversed the nines would have been an exciting way to finish.

I don't think they actually think they are "Growing the Game". 
I think they've either been coached, or possibly talked themselves into believing the "Grow the Game" line. 

Some of them may actually believe it. The rest just feel like it sounds a lot better than the truth.

I can just imagine the "brainstorming" meeting where they all got together and said "what is our motivation for LIV, its the money, but we can't say that, so ..... growing the game. Yeah, yeah, lets go with that."

I felt DJ on Full Swing was the most honest. He basically said it was the money. He tried to tie it up in some, work less, get paid more nonsense, but it was basically the money.

Maybe they are growing the game by showing the next generation that they can be a golfer of moderate success to very successful and get paid a lot of money to play less golf for their overlords!

not growing the game in the direction we thought, but they are certainly growing the game in a direction no one every anticipated.

For trying to be “modern” and change the game, this tweet doesn’t help their narrative.  Of course, this isn’t an official LIV account but still.

Just dumb. Counting majors is really stupid. If Tiger played in the 30s to 50s, he might have 40.

    • A caddy should never be the story in an event like this
    • Based on the video I posted and my thoughts, I think Rory is ok. A caddy is a caddy at the end of the day, imo. Stay out of the way. Ryder Cup or not, you shouldn’t be anywhere close to competitors when potentially interfering in their play. 
    • I think Rory may have overreacted a bit.  Depending on what someone said because he definitely looks to be reacting to something someone said off camera.  But that last angle they showed on 'Live From' doesn't make LaCava look good either.  He's not in Rory's line but he's definitely in his space as Rory is trying to get into his routine.  And when Rory shoo's him away, he lingers and says something to either Rory or someone just past Rory, as Rory is crouched down reading the putt. Then he waves his hand at Rory who's in his routine fully at that point.  Rory could have given it a couple seconds to quiet down as well.  Neither had a great moment, but they are reacting in real time to huge emotional moments.  Tough to get on anyone too hard for that.  Hopefully makes for great sporting tomorrow and a comeback for the ages.

    • U.S. deficit was also 4 in 1999 at Brookline. I also think Rory was yelling at someone past Bones. I heard it stemmed from La Cava getting near where Rory was walking for his putt to tie the 18th (on the other side of the hole from where Rory would putt from, so not in his line). Heaven forbid you celebrate a little, Rory. From what I've heard, Rory was in the wrong there, especially after all the shit Cantlay took all day about his hat. I reserve the right to change my mind given more information.
