Stabbed in the back is one way of putting it, but I'd say played is more accurate , as this covers the entire episode. From what I can see, the PGA Tour have played their members and their fans from the get-go to boost their leverage, and it's been the most successful plank to their strategy. This was always a commercial dispute between the Saudis and the other guys who were happy to take Saudi money but still wanted to run the show. Rather like FIFA/UEFA, they managed to convince people that it was some sort of moral fight between good and evil. I think a lot of people, good people perhaps like yourself, bought into this, and thought this was an important moral choice they could make to make the world better - I don't really agree with this for reasons I've posted before on this thread, but I share your sentiment for these folks, as wanting to make the world a better place is clearly a good motivation. However, some people, including those players, I suspect knew exactly what was going here and chose to make the stand they did for purposes of grandstanding. I do not feel sorry for Rory - he has had his payment in full, and will only benefit from his decision to bolster his reputation by dragging the sport through the mud for two years. -

For me, the only view that matter is mine. Unless Monahan and the DP tour guy actually have the authority to make this deal on their own say so, and it requires any kind of ratification by the players, I could see this whole thing blowing up. And leaving an even bigger mess. And, of course, there definitely will be be lawsuits. -

Monahan pledged that he would be completely transparent, in his first presser as Tour Commissioner, and now I'm hearing that this has been the works for 7 weeks without any players knowing about. I don't see how he survives. -

Day 2 - went to the range and did some random practice. Primarily working on driver, but also hit some irons. Driver is a bit of an enigma right now, but everything else was solid.
