Where are they going to move it to? I've read that it should stay in NJ, at least them money that would have gone to local businesses will stay in the state.

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

I read an article that said many courses have reached out to say they can make it happen. Not sure where, but they certainly won’t have any trouble finding a suitable venue.

The R&A shuts the door on Trump as well:

The R&A follows the PGA of America, which moved the 2022 PGA Championship from Trump Bedminster

I'm voting for Lighthouse Point.  It's lighted so they can move the tournament into prime time.  With all those flags in the pic and some snow it could double as an Olympic downhill slalom course.

That's gotta be tough to plan for, May 2022. Do you assume live attendance will be allowed by then and sell tickets?

Absolutely!  85% of us will get the vaccine.  Chip or no chip.  Actually, if the gub'mint wants to track me around the golf course, fine... that'll be boring.

Once you go down that road of "boycotting" or moving tournaments away because a few people don't like the venue, the people running the tournament, or its political leaders, we might never see golf played again.

 You would be correct in instances where there are "a few".

But when you are talking in the hundreds of millions worldwide and probably close to 60% of the population in the USA, it makes sound business and moral sense.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

"Few" is a code word for few.

If support for the tournament falls they would care. 
 

Hopefully not, would hate for that to happen.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
