  1. So are they designing the ball to only result in less driver distance? Or would it apply equally to lost distance across all clubs?? I do support this however in theory
  2. I do like many elements of this change but I felt the focus on the higher ranked players was needed years ago when most of the podcasts were advocating for it. I do think this creates a quasi minor league within your main league, and i will care even less about watching minor events now, similar to how I handle my tennis watching now. At the same time, I hope they fix the problem WGC events suffer form, and I really hope they heavily incentivize the point structures so the bottom of 60-70 still has a reason to play and not phone it in. I'm also now not sure how I feel about the OWGR rankings for events like these.
  3. Right but places with more oversight and competitiveness usually pay their CEOs something commensurate with the amount of business they produce. I think for the quality of CEO they are getting, the PGA Tour is overpaying if Gary Bettman and Silver are making around $10mill for being much more accomplished, especially considering the last year.
  4. I'm surprised by how much he makes compared to other higher paying leagues. Seems like an overpayment. The amount of employees also seems a bit high compared to other leagues. That's what surprised me.
  5. Pants as a requirement on the PGA Tour is lame to me anwlyways. I thought that way before LIV too as someone who got into the sport in his late twenties.
  6. Been seeing many Twitter opinions but there is some legit anti competitive practise on the record in that suit, to some of the smaller businesses that help setup events.
  7. Yeah the tone is definitely different after Pumpkin Ridge.
  8. Only really liked the first season. Bailed midway through the 2nd and sounds like I didnt miss anything.
  9. I'll be honest, I really enjoyed what I watched. I like seeing the teams turn into nationalities.
  10. Every sport has off seasons though and it works just fine.
  11. I'll be honest off, a portion feels rushed to me, as the WGC 2.0 feels like a tacked-on effort to emulate Livs international events with no real intrigue there. Going to the Middle East is really blah to me considering we were just hating on the Middle East now for 4 weeks. I'd prefer they go to Australia. I personally feel its partially rushed which is why this is being announced now instead of announcing this before Liv took off.
  12. I just wish this came sooner as it was obvious LIV was coming and these are changes many have been saying the boring PGA product needed. I still dont understand why we are going to the Middle East though. Wish Australia was getting an event. Also not sure I see TOC as being an event I thought needed the extra juicing?
  13. Now I dont know if LIV ever gets there but I simply wish professional golf had a better structure that was more international. I really enjoy how theATP is organized. Globe trotting with events that feel important that get everyone to show up. I also love the variety of countries and cultures the ATP goes to. I still think there are far too few events where everyone shows up to which is I dont really watch the Tour beyond a few events.
  14. Checked it out a but on YT and it is a better viewing product to me so far. Feels more polished with more golf. CBS could learn something.
  15. Did no one hmmm Google DP World Tour? The jokes write themselves.....
