Golfingboy Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Had it on tape delay, you can hear Will’s voice breaking. It’s a huge deal to him…… I’m still quite content to watch these “second-rate leftovers” from LIV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I don’t hate Cam like I do Reed and others. Reed BTW is suing Chamblee for defamation for calling him a cheater…..Christ isn’t that like Weinstein & Epstein suing Ricky Gervais for the Golden Globes monologues??? But Cam IS the new Open Champion, don’t blame him for trying to make another $20M in the final 3 weeks of a ~ 40 week season. He earned it. AND it seems he wants to stick around for the President’s Cup late September. But he and the Tour are both at fault. This “hip injury” looks suspicious, and the 2 stroke penalty was total BS as I alluded to. Cam, though, when questioned about the LIV rumours holding the Claret Jug, saying “I have people who handle that for me, I don’t know”. SURE CAM, you delegate so much authority you don’t know you’re changing bosses next month??? Like I’ve said, it’s just too soon to tell. LIV gets Cam, then Matsuyama, plus who knows else…….it’s definitely thinning the quality of PGA Tour fields. If LIV folds, are the defectors really banned 4 life, even from Senior Tour? As I’ve said, I’ll never tune in, it’s NOT competitive golf IMO. They haven’t yet snagged many young stars who’ve won majors AND are not on the decline. Brooks & Bryson, 5 majors total but already injured often. Reed has a Masters but is hated. DJ, 38 years old, he would have faded soon enough. Phil & Sergio pretty much done too. Oosthuizen is 37 too and could never close,except 2010. Ancer & Wolff great players but no major. I’m really shocked Adam Scott hasn’t joined at 42 years old, I mean is there a better fit for LIV? So if they had landed Spieth, Rory, Collin, JT, maybe Tiger……yeah the PGA’s existence could be in serious danger. But if those guys hold firm, PGA is fine. Things will have to change, players’ earnings WILL increase, along with better schedules. But LIV, to already spend $2B without a penny of revenue…..it’s just not sustainable. Unless I’m missing something. What’s next, are the Saudis going to start a rival league to the NFL? Anyway, enough said. I just can’t agree with the supposed “golf fans” who love the LIV concept…..they’re all nuts IMO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfingboy Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Looks like a shootout today at the BMW. Par just won’t cut it, it WAS a tightly bunched leaderboard to start. Zalatoris WD with a back injury. Of my 4 🇨🇦, only Conners looks like he will advance to the Top 30 next week. Pendrith playing well, but started dead last, think he needs to finish 2nd or better as he is only projected 51st Just waiting until the Arsenal post game commentary is finished on NBC in a half hour…..

Golfingboy Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) Very happy 🇨🇦 Conners finished strong, nearly holed out on 16 & 18 to get into next week’s Tour Championship. He had 6 bogeys in an 18 hole stretch, if not he could have won today. Very tight leaderboard, I expect a playoff. Big Shane 🇮🇪 needs Aaron Wise to bogey 18 to get in next week. Adam Scott had his ups & downs but looks like he will make it Edited August 21, 2022 by Golfingboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zalatoris had previously withdrawn from last week’s BMW Championship during the third round. He tweaked his back on the third hole Saturday and attempted to play through the injury, but after vigorous stretching and attempted manipulations, he withdrew after the fourth hole. He was just four strokes off the lead at the time. The 26-year-old entered the TOUR Championship at No. 3 on the FedExCup, set to begin three strokes behind Scottie Scheffler in the Starting Strokes format. Zalatoris will also miss the Presidents Cup next month as he rehabilitates and recovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With it being almost 100% confirmed he’s jumping ship as early as Sunday evening, plus the BS 2-shot penalty and “hip injury”, I was convinced he was being kicked off the Tour So that’s the latest, 7 big names, for sure Matsuyama and Cam, being announced by LIV immediately after the Tour Championship ends 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfingboy Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Some very big changes coming to the Tour, in terms of pay and job security. I hope no one else defects to LIV now, will be interesting to see. Apparently Hideki is NOT a done deal, he makes so much back home in endorsements, and the Japanese fans won’t tune in to the LIV BS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfingboy Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 I’ve played and watched lots of golf, and will say that’s a very shocking shot from Rory. The lip wasn’t an issue, but usually if anything these shots come out fat and short. To fly the whole green from 135, I don’t know, too pumped up?

Golfingboy Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) Amazing how good Rory can play when he’s on. He actually beat Scheffler by 7 shots for the week, starting 6 back, and started triple /bogey for the week. So he had to make up 10 shots, he beat Scottie by 11. Really clutch golf. I don’t like the format, though. When it’s thousands of points per event, it’s impossible to have ties, when it’s just strokes for the finale, lots of guys sharing money. There’s no way Im & Scheffler deserve to take home the EXACT same bonus after a whole season, come on! Im anxious for the LIV announcement tomorrow. Tringale was one of the seven mentioned, and he already Tweeted his “confirmation ”. But he’s a nobody, I’m curious if Smith, Hideki, Varner are actually going through with it. Seems all but confirmed, but I hope a few change their mind…..🤞 Edited August 28, 2022 by Golfingboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
