And he's back to 25M now. But LIV earnings will make a health pension fund.

That's only a fallback/necessity if/when LIV fails to get OWGR points, though that failure seems very likely to me. Mind you, the sign-on fee and prize money, if real payments to the players, would likely provide enough to survive on the 8 or so events in any year.I thought they were also looking to play on the Asian Tour as well ? Is that not further travel away from home - Singapore , Korea China , Taiwan amongst others ?

Is that Chantananuwat, the same one you earlier claimed had been dropped? You can't use the same player for 2 diametrically opposed arguments!

You need to realise that the entire concept is NOT to grow the game, but to bring down the PGA Tour!

️ The revolting Saudis literally KILL people like me, yet you guys continually justify this utterly abhorrent travesty, whose very existence is about cleansing their reputations so the Saudis can carry on massacring people!
LIV Golf is literally EVERYTHING that is wrong with this world.
Financed by one of THE most evil regimes on Earth No business case or ROI whatsoever Anti-competitive by any metric Financed entirely by corrupted dirty money Climate change & environmental degradation on steroids Sportwashing straight up Deliberate attempt to take over an entire sport to launder reputations A haven for golf’s most arrogant, obnoxious, filthy rich elites Enriching the greediest who only want MORE while the rest of us struggle! Anyone defending it should be ashamed. Utterly ashamed.
You defile our sport, trash its honour and reverse all our hard won progress of decades ?
So please THINK and realise the harm you are causing. THINK!

Sorry have to disagree on the last part
It’s the most talked about thing within golf right now and if you can’t talk about it on here then it’s not a golf forum
It will divide opinion - that’s because it’s contraversial and we should be free to discuss it all and give opinions providing it’s respectful

Is it not a fair statement to say that there has been a lot of disrespect within the discussion?
Have to disagree on the last part. I dont really think it is dividing opinion. Or, if its dividing it, its more of a 99:1 split. The 1 being likely shills, trolls, or just contrarians.

If there is then remove that - don’t just close down a whole subject because of it.

It gives the football fans something to argue over during the off season....

I’m sure the mods have plenty of free time to police this thread……

Is that statement nothing more than throwing fuel in the fire?
I’m definitely not trolling, far from a contrarian but have my own opinion and views. Because they don’t align with yours does that make them wrong?

Yep, it's human nature, they will follow the money.
If the 3 month ban that is rumoured is the actual punishment loads more will want to play in the events after the Open since most of the big names take a 3 month break away over the winter months.
Also, thanks for the Honma TW-X review on YouTube, your review is what convinced me to give them a go.
Sorry only just seen this, Glad you liked the Honma Golf Balls
Has anyone seen any independent, disinterested, informed commentators on golf, propone this venture as being good for golf in general, and for followers of elite golf as entertainment ?

Because it’s patronising and treating us like idiots. Everyone knows they’re being paid a boatload of money to defect, we already know that the ‘spend more time with family’ is BS because they only have to play 15 PGAT comps a year, we know they’re not going for the string field because it’s a much weaker field. So just tell the truth. People would have much more respect for that.
The reason they don’t is because of where the money is coming from, so they’re cowards as well as money grabbers.
As for the last point, I’ve left jobs for money and given that as the reason for leaving, and I’ve accepted resignations from people for the same reason. I’m pretty sure most people would say it’s for more money if it was, partly to stick it up them if nothing else!
