I'm no expert but for those that haven't quit the PGA tour I would think they will file lawsuits.    I expect this to be a circus for quite some time.  If young guns bolt it could be a total dumpster fire.  I'm actually surprised there hasn't been more harsh words from the PGA players.

Maybe Goose can tell us what we missed today as far as the LIV coverage?

What would be the basis of a lawsuit? It seems a pretty clear violation of their tour contracts, so much so that many of these guys are resigning from the PGA.

I had the same question.

Given that LIV only exists as long as MBS is in power, it would be pretty dumb for the agents not to demand this.

Nice that MBS can make time for this what with his busy schedule of killing gay people, discriminating against women and murdering journalists.

They will recycle.

US may have to count on Zalatoris to make a short putt.

Rory say the LIV payments are made upfront.

Depends who you are. Some are up front loans where they are fronting future earnings. Some are spread out. Big stars are lump sums in suit cases. Hopefully not the kind from Turkey.

I'm more worried about Presidents Cups to be honest.

I just checked.  DJ, Reed, Bryson, Na are nowhere near the top 12.   Going by straight top 12, Hoge and Gooch make the team.

Tom Hoge didn’t leave PGA, but Gooch did play in the LIV event.

But at least the team will be made up of guys you feel good rooting for.

I saw the LIV promo with Dennis Quaid.

Uhh...super creepy.   

The promo or Quaid?

Ryder team will be lots of young guns.  Sheffler, Homa, Collin M., Speith, JT, Cantlay, Burns.  Hopefully Horschel will make the team, add Berger and Xander.

President Cup standings are really for top 6 players.  Captain then makes 6 choices.
Will be tough team to beat.

Kisner will probably end up on the Ryder Cup team as well.

I am actually happy I never have to think of Reed or Na (and Thicc Boi for that matter) ever being on the team again. It's quite refreshing.

Actually Na has never made a Ryder or President Cup team.  Same for Billy Horschel, which I could not believe.

I know, but the threat of Na even being thought of for a team made me angry. I can't stand that dolt.

Now Billy Ho isn't my total cup of tea but he could, as Andy Johnson said, be the American Poulter if ever picked. The Euros would hate him. He would piss everyone off on their team.

He is the reason why the last pick now is after the end of the FedEx. He's just had bad timing.

But Na is a poofer and a turd.

I doubt Na was ever a real consideration for any team

What's your gut on what the Masters will do?  I assume they have the power to do whatever they want?

I can’t imagine they’d begrudge anyone for getting the bag.

This might be a silly question. Is the PGA of America separate from the PGA Tour? I assumed the LIV players would not be eligible for the PGA Championship, but in some articles, it seems like the PGA of America is a separate entity.

I'm confused as well....they're apparently separate?

Muggsy

I had it on for a couple of hours and very unimpressed. At this point, I think I would rather watch the Sunshine Tour. It is going to be difficult to have quality golf with as little as they will be playing and they have zero need to play well.

PGA of America and the PGA TOUR are completely different entities.
