Best pro-LIV show IMO….love it
WHY is PIF not suing the corrupt OWGR board?
The Euro tour has been smashed by the PGAT…PIF should join up with Euro tour and do global golf
Really Enjoyed this Podcast one of best to date
Felt Jay contribution was so much more measured in this pod – much more impactful and still lands a Punch
Mark – I felt was too negative on Liv — What Ben said later hit the Spot — There are far more interesting character's and personalities on Liv – yes there is some dilution with an additional tour — when you look at likes of
Brooks Rahm Nieman Reed HV3 Bryson Lahiri Puig Chacarra Garcia Ancer Lefty Ogletree Hatton Wolf Cam Gooch Louis Burmester Munoz Mito
feel much more attractive field than even designated events — others are on PGAT are so weak
Issue has been After the Demise of Tiger with injuries — A new Superstar has not emerged to command audience viewing —
No one can be banked on to perform week in week out even like Vijay v Tiger in 2000- 2006
Scheffleur may be best tee to green but rarely putts well , JT Speith Xander Finau Day Morikawa can not be relied to perform week in week out —
exception but boring Cantlay, Rory typically in Full flow is superb to watch but cannot finish the biggest event like Mayors under expectation
So PGAT IS overrated fields — too try and get views Media continually build players up beyond what they really can deliver — Supported by Skewed OWGR points favouring PGAT
Then is watching no guarantee you will see many shots outside key groups — too much chat, adverts and putting — they have a real problem
Back 9 Sunday only worth watching
Another issue – Pebble is normally an exception – Due to design and on the coast/links weather impacted -This week being a Pro-am not tough enough Pins etc
— WEEK IN WEEK OUT – course set up is too easy no rough , bunkers not hazards – putting comp — no reward for accuracy off tee
Mainly Two no stand out superstars – poor media
Liv has more personalities – Shotgun and coverage — you will see more shots on one day < 5hours than 4 days on PGAT
The SSG PGAT Deal — this leaves DPWT potentially as collateral damage —
Even some players like Lefty Rob McIntyre said need Pif money for DPWT
DPWT Need to DO DEAL WITH PIF AS PRIVATE EQUITY WILL CUT OFF DWPT $$ SUPPORT – need a return on investment
Division with get wider
USA on its own — MORE ISOLATED
World tour via LIV supported by all tours outside North America Asian DPWT Australasia Africa India
MAJORS Are most vulnerable
Masters is an Exhibition now
PGA needs replacing with New Major in Asia or Australasia
Open and US Open standalone — but still need review of entry for golfers not on PGAT – all tours impacted although LIV standouts
Some Specifics liv
NO MID SEASON TADE OPTION IS A WEAKNESS
PTS STILL 1-24 too restrictive Should be 1-36 better differential of performance
Places 44 and below Relegation end of season 4 is not enough — they can try to qualify end of season
Agree with Jay = especially after yesterdays announcement day 3 all 4 team members scores count so Weak 3 or 4th player is an issue
My prediction before End of year Team playoffs
Torque
Fireballs
Stinger
Crushers
Smash
Legion XIII
Aces
H Flyers
Majestics
Rippers
Range Goats
Cleeks
Iron Heads
LIV guys should just not turn up for the majors, rock up for the practice days, and then fk them off on day 1 – no warning. Industrial action if you will. Embarrass the whole bunch of them right there in front of the watching golf world.
LIV is the only field that is proven to get stronger each year!!! The PGA is selling the “next gen” that have yet to do anything meaningful
If you're watching weak fields you must be watching PGA or DP Tour events. I watch LIV and guess what…strong fields every event they have…sometimes difficult to find a 3Ball without a Major winner in it !!
What turned me off was the hate towards LIV. I no longer watch the PGA or the Golf Channel. The European Tour should allow LIV players to enter their events to increase interest.
