Once upon a time, golf pros came together under one umbrella to compete in all tournaments.
Records were broken, prizes were won, and endorsement deals were sealed due to the golfers' sterling performances. Things couldn't have been better on the PGA Tour; it was almost like a monopolistic system where the Tour called the shots, determining who stayed and who left. I mean, they could do no wrong, right?
But a few decades later, a new golf league was proposed to rival the PGA Tour, and to everyone's surprise, one of the Tour's sworn enemies was elected to lead the rebel league.

I was expecting this channel to have millions of subs lmao
Give it time. Tons of people are making channels right now, hiring script writers, voice overs, research, etc and if the channel is well made, it’ll blow up in weeks. This may be one. My friend is paying a bunch of people to start his
Same bro
Same. But in due time

LIV was not set up to be a rival league! LIV was SUPPOSED to be a very select few tournaments for a very select few golfers to play for huge money. It was only when the PGA Tour decided to ban any of their subcontractors from playing in these "elevated events" that they (Norman and the Saudis) decided to create their own breakaway league.
Cant blame someone who plays golf for a living, to choose the option that gives them more money.

So, pure greed, then?
Right.
Idiot.
True but you would think at a certain point of wealth that it wouldn't faze you anymore, so the big players leaving is still surprising
...but you'll have blood on your hands. and it will be harder to look in the mirror. :(

This video is absolutely amazing, cannot wait to see this channel grow. Keep it up!
Thanks a lot!
I clicked on this video thinking it had hundreds of thousands of subscribers, it’s insane you have this high quality videos with so little subscribers. Keep it up!🙌
Thanks a lot!
great video. would love to see more!
They kept 75% of the money LOL damn. And I thought my boss was stingy.
Sad the PGA couldn’t embrace a world golf league or tour. Could have grown the PGA even more.
LIV events are so much fun er to attend
Like video games.
Ask Rory how it’s gone for him being The Tour cheerleader?
A new 🌟 is born #TeeTime keep shinning! stellar video!
Love your videos, keep this quality up and trust me your channel will blow up!!!
Please don't forget me when you have done it
Thanks a lot, I won’t 🙏
Great video! Keep it up
Thanks for watching!
great video mate, music’s a bit intense though
Thanks, will try to improve that in the next video (:
Honestly this is the best time in the history of golf. Not only is there a more exciting league to watch, but players are making more money than ever!
Oh To be young and dumb 😂😂
Bro were you not alive during early 2000s Tiger Era??? 😅😅 That was the peak of modern golf
@@adamkondracki3201 hey, atleast you aren't afraid to admit that you're dumb! Lol. Yes I was.
@@adamkondracki3201 at least you aren't afraid to admit that you're dumb! I was alive and that was 25 years ago. That isn't modern golf bud.
Hey man! How do i contact you asap.
Competition between leagues will only lead to players getting a higher percent of the profits. Golf is unique from other sport leagues such as the NFL and NBA as on the PGA you don't sign with a team, have a contract, or have leverage to request a trade or a raise. Love the competition and hopefully the players will continue to get a larger slice of the pie and autonomy to play whichever tournament they would like.
Proof that most people will take money over respect
Watch this channel blow up
The parydym are a changing.like a rolling stone a complete unknown.profetic poetry lol
Wtf only 700 subs is criminal
Regardless of why ppl are leaving I’m sad that the history and tradition of golf has ended
But for the intransigence of the pga it needn’t have ended.
This is all on them
Time and the PGA will bury LIV.
Greg created a tour which in less than 3 years threatens the existence of the 55 year old PGA Tour run by Jay who's actions made this possible.
So who would anybody in his right mind, want to be in charge of the running golf? Definitely not the greedy commissioner that betrayed the loyal golfers on his tour while stuffing his own pockets... obviously the very successful Greg Norman who is looking out for his players!
@@Thegolfingoldman His 2 x Majors and golf career are just a part of it...add to that his golf course designs, golf-inspired lifestyle apparel, wine production and other business ventures (including creating LIV Golf)...
Not even close to taking over golf … couple of good golfers sprinkled in with a bunch of has beens
Let me know, Thanks!
PGA , show your bookkeeping , like the MLB, NBA,NHL , soccer the men at the top are slave masters ,
LIV knows how to treat its slaves

Lots of cash, but lots of blood as well. Just ask the poor wife who's husband's body was cut up in a Saudi embassy. :(
If Saudi money is so evil, then stop buying Saudi oil and gasoline.
Don't think you're safe. I'm still your No.1 Hater.
Yea no cuts and 3 day tournaments with no meaning but money is a real winning formula lol lets not forget about the cringe champagne team celebration every tournament if they wasnt worried about anything but money why are they still waiting to play in majors
Your argument kinda proves how retarded the regular PGA tour events are. Most of the top 5-15 PGA golfers would skip everything that wasn’t convenient minor tournament or a major if it wasn’t for the fedex cup system and even then plenty of the top players skip tournaments.
The concept of a fixed travel period and knowing when you will need to be on site and off site for tournaments is also a big financial help for the golfers and caddies.
And yet it’s so much better than the boring stodge the pga trots out !
Without the majors, which aren’t run by the pga, they would be history
It's a league not a tour. Makes perfect sense to me.
How does it have no meaning? 😂 It has literally the exact same meaning as the PGA Tour does...
LIV is sinking like a stone, the exhibition golf model has zero following and is being relegated to the ash heap of history. It will continue to burn bags of loot but the quality will continue to sink.
Not true
Wow did you not see the feedback this year and the past tournament in Australia? 100’s of thousand people and pure excitement! LIV is so much more of a better product and have a better following with Teams, 3day play,shotgun starts & TEAMS!
The PGA Tour does not have a problem. Great players (Nicklaus, Hogan, Snead, Nelson, Watson, Rahm, etc.) have come and gone and the PGA Tour survives. The LIV "tour" is like a travelling men's club that will eventually die on the vine when PIF tires of losing money.
Do not watch men’s golf now.
LIV-MAGA. No thanks.
