I'm sure plenty of them said they wanted to spend more time with their families....= play less....

Wonder if in part is about trying to argue a principle via the courts? Maybe they think the average Joe in the US will view as individuals against a big Corp.(not saying I do). Personally I think they should stay away and play the Asian events as you mentioned.How many events do they want to play ?
What are they actually suing for ? To be able to play in the events that they pick ?
Or they want their tour membership back along with their LIV membership and Asian Tour membership and ET membership ?
Seems like they just want everything their way

it’s strange - the players have left to join another tour because ultimately it’s going to earn them more money , that’s fair enough but now they because there’s are no Liv events for a while they want to come back and play PGA tour events - the same tour they left ?

I have to say that if you joined Liv you shouldn't expect to walk back onto the PGA or DP Tour without some repercussions or bad feeling/response.
I guess they are all in on the Greg Norman "Were independent contractors" argument"
They knew the consequences of there actions when they left...

I’m guessing if they are “independent contractors” that means any tour can cancel a contract or not take up a contract with a player ?
Seems the players are also wanting compensation as well - are they not getting enough money ?

I’m pretty certain a lot of these moves by golfers will have been well planned and thoroughly thought through. It’s one big game of chess and that includes the extremely well advised players.

I'm pretty sure both sides have had lawyers look at the regulations and the liv players interpret those as giving them a case otherwise the action wouldnt have been actioned.
Also read somewhere that PIF is happy to fund these legal actions on behalf of the players..
If so...
The players will surely feel sod it let's roll the dice?????

It is interesting that the likes of DJ have just gone - thanks for a great time PGA Tour but I’m going to do something different , he is happy with his lot ?
Are the others worried they may not last long on the LIV

How is he out of his depth ?
What else do you expect the CEO of the PGA tour to do ?
It also seems that Mickleson was suspended for trying to recruit players - thats typical Mickleson

Does it strike you as a letter written by man who is in control of a multi-billion per annum organisation?
"Hey guys - help me out here and voice your displeasure on social media".

Where in the letter did it say that?
