From what I have read the new Greg Norman venture so far has only made a deal to enhance the purses on certain Asian Tour events.

If the Enhanced Asian Tour events  attracts some aging stars to participate in those events, it might not be a bad idea for Golf world wide. It would also not be a bad thing for the PGA tour, as it would free up some space for more young and up and comers.

Greg Norman has had a hard on for the PGA Tour for many many years and this is just the latest iteration.

Herms, you understand that the Asian Tour was bought to prop up the Saudi League right? It gave the Saudis legitimacy within the OWGR which otherwise they couldn't get. Smart play by MBS.

The press release does not paint a pretty picture for Phil. I have always had love-hate feelings towards Phil and gave him the benefit of the doubt more times than not, that likely will be changing. He needs to get knocked a couple of pegs and see how he responds before I am back on his bandwagon. That said, I do appreciate the 12-1 odds I made off him over the PGA weekend last year.

Yes this was a very good move. From a business perspective they  just let the bigger purses on the Asian Tour play out for a while, see how much they can improve the fields and build from there. Put their Super League idea on the back burner until you can prop up the Asian Tour to be closer to the level of the European Tour.

As many of us said, Phil is not the great guy he pretends to be. No wonder most of his peers dislike him.

Good non-apology apology. Classic damage control.

Oh, and claiming his interview was off-the-record and trying to impugn Shipnuck’s integrity … extra kisses for that cover-his-ass lie. What a douchenozzle.

Hey, but Phil signs autographs and gives thumbs up!

He’s a great guy, I heard it from the bag drop guy’s third cousin.

All can be true.   His treatment of on site personnel is legendary.   Huge tipper.   Polarizing among his comrades.   Some love him, some hate him.  Says stupid stuff from time to time.   Chases money.    Second best player of his generation.   All can be true.

I've actually heard, from one who would know, that Phil is a very genuine guy. Yes, he is that nice. Unlike Dustin Johnson, who he labelled, "a punk," hey?

I’ve heard from one guy who would know that Phil is the biggest phony in the game.  I also heard an amazing story about why DJ missed the Masters a few years ago and it had nothing to do with stairs but a fellow player not appreciating approaches towards his then fiancé.

Very much looking forward to Billy Walters book

Tiger










































Ernie
Phil

This is correct. Phil's 2021 PGA brought him much closer to Big Easy, but he's still the #2. Doesn't get recognized because of Phil's nonsense and he played the international game.
