    DeChambeau, Rickie Fowler and Patrick Reed to join LIV Golf

    this may be a very slow death for the PGA

    There are two Trump courses on this tour this year. New Jersey and Miami.

    It's not going to be a slow death, it'll be a quick one; the players will follow the money and the Saudis have the PGA Tour whipped.

    are LIV events in conflict with the Major tournies?

    I would think these players are just going to go after money on both ends

    anything preventing that?

    Looks like they don't have a tv deal yet. Streaming only.

    Donald Trump endorses Saudi golf league, says pros should 'embrace' it

    is revenge for:

    Why 2022 PGA Championship was moved from Donald Trump's Bedminster course to Southern Hills

    Donald Trump loves Russia and Saudi Arabia; I'm shocked.

    If the U.S. golf establishment wants to bring a quick end to this, it will do so over the next 3-6 months and LIV will matter to absolutely no one.

    Saudis don't even care if they lose money
    every day it is replenished somehow

    Noticing a trend with these guys going to the LIV. Except for Ricky Fowler these guys are the most disliked players on tour. Sergio and Poulter have been jerks for years. Most USA players privately have despised Dustin Johnson as well. Same with the cheater Patrick Reed. DeChambeau is a complete weirdo that every player hates playing with because is slow as 90 year old.
    And Garcia, Poulter, Fowler and Reed have seen a significant decline in their level of play where they barely make the cuts now.
    Mickelson is a sicko gambler that the Senior PGA does not want at all.
