Golf, brought to you from the people raising your gas prices…
Genuine question here that I can't find an answer to. How do they decide who doesn't play now they have more than 48 players signed up?
Be nice to hear the full presser, instead of selective questions and answers
The argument about LIV 'blood money' is ridiculous considering the PGA Tour's partner, DP World Tour, is also Saudi money.
PGAT players should thank LIV for getting their Tour to begin reforms and bigger purses. They should hope LIV is a big success.
FS1 should get out in front and carry LIV Golf. Golf is too big to be confined to one management system. LIV is fresh, vital and welcomed.
jesus bloody journalists straight away mentioning blood money half the dp world tour and a load from the pga tour playing in Saudi Arabia last year nothing was said then only being said now because liv is a real rival to the pga tour
Until LIV gets OGWR points these "tournaments" are just exhibitions
Ask the PGA tour about their business dealings in China! We all know that’s not gonna happen though! These guys are businessman, they’re going to go where businesses the best, and I don’t blame them one bit. They’re not playing for the Saudi government, they’re playing for their families! Same reporters never bothered to ask the NBA About its business with China. why don’t you guys ask the players who are sponsored by Nike some of these questions. these media people are hypocrite scumbags, and the average golf fan is being so turned off because of them. They are only shooting themselves in the foot and doing a huge favour to liv golf!!! there have been golf tournaments every year in Saudi Arabia, the US government is a very close ally of the Saudi‘s, they trade tens of billions of dollars worth of military equipment every year, and God knows how many barrels of oil the US buys from Saudi Arabia every year lol.. Absolute total hypocrisy!
This is all about the bucks and not this team stuff etc. I like LIV, but I don't like these excuses of our multi-millionaires
They want Ryder cup but now they won’t make the Ryder Cup. lol
DeChambeau!!!!!
Does anybody know what happens now to the 9 guys who have been pushed out of this event to make room for the new set? Seems like some were amateurs. Did they just effectively end their careers since the PGA has banned them and they only got to play in 1 LIV event?? Going to be held to lesser tours for the rest of their life?
If was asked the question I would answer, "If it is OK for the President of the USA to ask the Saudi's to produce more oil and for the USA to sell billions of dollars in military equipment to them every year, why is it not ok for us to play golf? Further to this I would add that sport is known to break down barriers as it already is in Saudi Arabia where the Ladies European tour already operates via the Aramco series."
Bryson, are you going to break 80?
I enjoyed watching the first comp in England and look forward to watching future turnaments.
The question about "blood money" ….. I think the are so many other cases, in sport and the nomal life where this question could and should be asked.
Koepka couldn't wait to bail on this 20 minute long joint interview session.
anyone count how many times moderator said obviously?
I'm all for Liv golf… And it would be nice somewhere down the line when Liv golf and the pga compete together
I can’t believe nobody asks Bryson on the impact this will have on his desires to participate in Long Drive throughout the year. Crazy.
It's not a good idea to edit press conferences,.
Of course they love teams now, they getting millions lol
I used to respect Bryson
Nice
A Mexican selling out for the Money? Of course!….What a surprise….😄🙄….and Im Mexican!!!!°°°
Simple…stop covering these guys, no Network TV Rights, no official World Ranking Points so they can be (eventually) eliminated from the Majors and let them ride off into the sunset with their SELL OUT MILLIONS….tired of their rehearsed bullshit retoric answers….good riddance!✌🏽
Change is good and maybe long over due. Money isn't bad either.
I wish the media would just stop trying to trash the LIV golf tour. It’s already under way, there are more players joining every week, and the PGA Tour have no right to demand that players be forced to play in America.
Love LIV Golf!!!!
The PGA tour players owe the greatest debt of gratitude to the liv players. Look at all the changes that PGA has had to make for their players in just one month. They owe a bigger debt to the Liv players than they do to tiger woods
Love it!!
So stoked
id like to see for once the players ask reporters back, or list back all the other businesses and governments doing business with SA where the media is silent. and what of all the governments and businesses working with china, who also has shady human rights abuses. hypocritical. why is this such a big deal?
Can't wait to see this next event going to be Amazing and it's good for golf
PGA is shitting their pants as they thought they could take in 40 Billion annually from the saudis via aramco, but try to keep the players from taking the same deal. Didn’t take long between Jay Monahan taking the PGA woke for June to this point- get woke go broke
Every golfer is doing this because the money is better for less playing time. That's it. Better work life balance and a fat load of money for it. Why do reporters even ask… the answers are moot, we know why they're doing it. You think Matt Wolff would've been excited about playing team golf if it was for a hundred thousand dollars? Of course not. That's not to say it's a good of bad thing that they're doing it for that reason, it's just the reality of it… so I wish they'd stop asking. I feel like Bryson had an overly thought out answer prepared with all of his points about investing in his community, yada yada, as if he knew he'd have to justify his decision. And, obviously I respect him for investing money that way, but I HIGHLY doubt that was the primary reason for him doing this. Anyway, come on guys… let's move on from why they're on the tour and what made them join.
Who's interviewing these guys? Paris Hilton?
Pure greed. No morals and no respect for the history of the game. How much money do you need?
The LIV is just getting better and better. There's specifically one player that I really wish would come to the LIV Tour. This player I've had the chance to meet in person at a clinic he put on at the Rock Island Arsenal in 2012 during the John Deer Classic. He told us his story about how he had to grind it out week after week in a rental car driving to different tournaments across the world. Just an all-around genuine guy, and of course he's a country boy just like me too. Not to mention he was a Ryder Cup favorite so this format he'll definitely excel and make the experience even more exciting. One of my very favorite players I wish would join the LIV Tour is BOO WEEKLEY!!
Good for Saudi Arabia, looks like they’re trying to be a more civilized type country. If we can forgive Japan and Germany then why not the Saudi‘s.
These some happy blood money takin mugs right here! Grin alllllll the way to hell boys.
Exhibitions for blood-money. Shame on all of ‘em.
I’m not sure why they want to still play on the PGA Tour? They keep emphasizing that they needed time off to spend with their families and pursue other interests. They stress that in order to do so they need to escape the grind of the PGA Tour. Great! Everyone is happy! Goodbye … have great time on the LIV Tour and don’t let the door hit you in the A**
Awesome Q&A both from the panel and the floor. Well done.
Patrick Reed ………….what an honest ,great player………..
