    As much as that idea seems awesome, I cant see them running with it unfortunately. The problem comes with a tournament like that in the leadup time. They'd need 5-6 weeks before the tournament for members to vacate and not use the course. Cant imagine 4 top courses at once would be happy to do...

    MLB isnt, NBA isnt, NHL isnt, NFL isnt. So if thats your definition no such thing as a domestic league in the US.

    Well quite frankly our golf courses are terrible in comparison with the eastern states. Both in number and quality. Source: I've played almost all of them (not Royal Adelaide). 1 course in the top 20 in Australia. Another one in the top 40. Neither of which are being use for LIV.

    Yeh we live in hope, but lets be honest, what about 50 of the top 100 golfers are American? And 3-4 are Australian? You say its comparing apples and oranges but why? Why dont they play pro league matches here? Is it because of travel, timing, weather, sponsorships, broadcast times/rights and a...

    I'm sure they'll be reimbursed with a 20% off Bone Saws coupon. I'm a South Aussie, but lets face it, its being held in the 5th best golfing state (if we're lucky). How far down the course list is Grange? Barely top 100 in the country AFAIK Vic and NSW governments mustve been like "Yeah, Nah"...

    Why would we see a bunch of the worlds top golfers play in Australia? What makes you think even if they put an event on that theyd bother to come? When was the last time an NBA game was played here, an NFL game, a premier league game? Fact is our local sports leagues for world sports are...

    a) We wont see because its literally impossible. LIV have spent more than the entire budget on PGA on like 4 players guaranteed contracts. There is ZERO chance this ever makes money - the only argument against my point is that it 'doesnt have to', which is true to a point. b) Not for these...

    Last time was Presidents Cup 2019. And it was way better than any lineup LIV will ever offer. Woods, Spieth, Johnson, Thomas, Cantlay, Bryson, Shauffele, Woodland, Fowler, Finau, Reed Ancer, Im, Leishman, Matsuyama, Niemenn, Oosthuizen, Scott, Smith, Im etc.

    a) Not actually possible to be sustained. It can never make even half the current spend, even with the most rosey-eyed projections. b) Less golf - The best players are now playing less than half the amount they were before. Strange view to say "more golf" when its just now lower quality and some...

    They gave away thousands of tickets for $1 as promotional material. Also a bunch of freebies given out for competitions and stuff. Anyway what is the point on this? They would have to charge about $30,000 for a day pass to ever make money.

    Which points are lies? Or are you just doing a Trump and yelling and screaming lies when you have no comeback? Please address the issue. Also I'm not really a Rory fan at all...this is completely an opinion formed off the basis of logic and facts.

    Mate i had that opinion before Rory had even commented. Its: a) not sustainable b) a lot LESS golf c) lower quality golf d) mostly players who are on a downward trajectory e) zero, and i mean ZERO incentive to practice or improve f) deceptive (ie. smith earnt nothing for winning this last...

    What a load of crap. $1 tickets doesnt mean a sell-out. Same bros that have been pot shotting AFLW for years for cheap tickets are now on the LIV bandwagon. What a joke. Anyone thinking LIV is good for golf is absolutely kidding themselves. How is it sustainable? How is it rewarding the...

    Absolutely. Affects some more than others. I have no issues with communicating with females but there are certainly people at my school that could've done with having women around every day.

    Schooling difference is one thing. It'd be more the differnece between schooled kids and home schooled kids. There's a very small sliver of people who homeschooling will work for. I went to a single gender high school and I think even that hindered certain aspects of social development...

    Is it though? Kid might be a superstar golfer in the end but is having no childhood worth that? Didnt work for people like MJ, Macaulay Culkin, Frankie Muniz etc Largely leads to depression and substance abuse.

    It seems thats the way in all american sports these days. The parents push their kid so young to be so specialised. School takes a back seat. They are travelling all around the country to play in rep teams and for academies etc. I read something recently about a bunch of kids who at 9 or 10...

    Honestly went into the week saying "i actually quite like all the yanks except Reed" Walked out thinking the only ones I do like are Finau and DeChambeau now. JT ruined it by making Haotong re-play his shot (although I would've done the same thing). His Mr Nice Guy persona got blown to...

    Reed dug his way out of this chat a long time ago. Is it just me or did even the nice yanks turn to complete w***ers the last couple of days. JT, Tiger are the two examples I can think of. Seemed fine and likable at the beginning of the week and by the end they were both acting like petulant...

    Do what we did. Find our way half way up some scaffolding with a random volunteer who didnt give a crap and get one of the best views in the house at the 11th Green/12th Tee Did foresee a Happy Gilmore style scaffold collapse onto the 11th green though.

    Dont worry Tiger had a big big crowd on Thursday. But I followed him for about 6 holes and then watched some of the other foursomes. Almost impossible to follow anyone on the weekend.
