I will not be watching any golf that is team-based. I love the Ryder Cup and President’s Cup (much less), but that is exactly because they are and are huge events. The excitement of golf is seeing individuals putting themselves to the test and having no one else by their caddy to help them win. I only like team golf in high school and college because those kids are at those schools with a natural tie to each other. 4 random golfers fork a real and player other collections of random golfers….who cares?
Do you think Scotty would still have won this season if all of the LIV players were still in the PGA? I don’t think the level of competition is the same on the PGA anymore more.
Following NBA framework why don’t they just create an in season tournament that is team based maybe three different events and I’m sure that would generate the revenue to make all parties happy
Scottie is a cool person and I like him but Lav said it best Scottie made it stressful. He had about his C or D game and still escaped by 1. This was coming off the heels of Sebastian Sodberg taking a 8 shot leading at the Intergender Event on the DP world tour and CHOKED. He went +5 77 to lose by 1 to LPGAs Linn Grant. Jack defentely wanted that course to be hard on Sunday. This is the 2nd year in a row where single digits under par won the tournament. Ted Scott should get credit for the win. He did a good job of calming down Scottie. He was so stressed Saturday night, it was reported he only talked to Todd Lewis for Golf Channel then went to the range. Its rare to see a 74 and it wins. Colin is defentely back. Pinehurst no 2 will be a difficult but a fair test. Worry for Scottie there if he takes his D game to that course. I could see +1 winning at Pinehurst. Even without Mother nature, its a difficult test. Not sure if this deal with PGA and LIV will get done by the end of this season. There is that first batch of players who ran away whose contract is expiring at the end of this season are in that difficult state. Will they be able to come back? Players on that board like Tiger and Patrick may not want them to come back.
Tour should only have 3 signature events - Riviera, Bay Hill and Muirfield Village. But make the fields more like the Masters - 90 to 100 players so the cut is really real. Inviting top LIV players to those 3 events could be a start on reintegration. And if LIV stages an event on one of those weekends - like they have - it makes the invited players make a decision. But, for God's sake, don't schedule "signature" events both before AND after a major. That is just complete idiocy. Also wouldn't be shocked if Scheffler and Morikawa are a bit flat this week. They both pretty much went through wringer Saturday and Sunday and there has to be some mental fatigue from that. Again, why schedule this event the week before the Open??? Just for a bonus, the scheduling really hacked off Jack Nicklaus. If they try to do that next year, Jack is likely to demand Monahan's head on a platter.
Team golf as a country is fire but I wanna see individuals battle it out and may the best man win the whole franchisment is cool but I don’t think it works I’m professional golf I mean it’s like if tennis did that it wouldn’t make sense it should be mostly individual. Would there’ve been a tiger woods with liv model I find it hard to believe
Way to go Scotty😊😊
It's the Talor era *****. Scottie defined by *!
Rahm will play DP tour later this year, France and Spain.
Great pod, look forward to Thursday.
Gahaha
You guys are amazing…so spot on 👍

That was a bit of a snoozer, the Liv format does offer more potential for compelling final rounds.
You are talking as if Rahm has won 4-5 times on the 54 Exhibition this year. He's done. Put a large fork in him.

Team golf is a pipe dream that will be a giant dud. Plus these babies already think they work too much.
Team golf is so amateur.
Yeah nobody cares about the Ryder Cup do they... 🤦🏾♀🤡
@@SiLoMixMaster I agree team golf is awesome every two years
