There’s absolutely no need to start a political thread and I aren’t posting links to politically informative web pages am I?
I read exactly what you wrote. I just don't get the point you're trying to make. Of course any player will expect some tough points of view against them. And, with so many morons in this world, some of those opinions will be expressed in a nasty way. He has simply called those out. What's wrong with that? The fact you bothered making this point, either suggests he should just shut up as the nasty comments come in, or that he should have made a different decision simply to avoid getting those comments in the first place. Both points of view seem absurd. The only other angle I can get is you are just stating the blinding obvious (although I'm sure a professional sportsperson (or any high profile celebrity) knows a lot more about getting nasty comments than yourself, so I'm sure he would have expected some nasty backlash.
As he believes that the LIV 'Tour' is an existential threat to The PGA Tour, I doubt he's going to be any less aggressive in his approach - at least for a while. It has, however meant that PGAT members that have been faithful to the org have been rewarded with additional 'benefits' - though there will have been/will be a cost to those, just as there would be in a commercial environment.
Moving forward, let’s hope Rory’s comments could be the catalyst for some sensible negotiations from all parties concerned. His comments about ‘mistakes being made’ echo my feelings which I’ve mentioned plenty of times on here - ultimately the sanctioning, banning and fining of players will create divide. Hopefully Monahan is prepared to take a step back to find a more suitable resolution for his organisation.[/QUOTE]
I think he's found one. The sanctioning, banning and fining of those who have gone over to LIV!!
Let's not forget that whilst Rory's views carry a lot of clout on the PGA Tour, there will be those who share the same views - or even stronger - as Horschel.
There will be a lot of PGA Tour pros and those on Korn Ferry who will benefit from the LIV defectors not being around every week taking up playing spots.
Getting personal. You are deluded now (which NOW might be getting personal), as my comments were simply related to the point you were making. And that I couldn't see the point you were trying to make. It is interesting that you have decided to get personal though, with your comments after the bold bit.

So, you don't like that I'm questioning your point? Boo flipping hoo!
