LIV is the re-rack cure! Spread the news 😂.

LIV doesn’t release details on this sort of thing. Whether it’s media deals or contract amounts, they’ll just be criticized so might as well keep it in house.

I heard he made nearly 7 figures last year with signings there. That’s crazy!

The teams are footing all of their team expenses and have been for a year I thought

“LIV’s teams are set up to operate independently, signing their own commercial deals and players. The league owns a majority (75%) of the teams, while franchise captains own the remaining 25%. LIV is expected to bring on more players this offseason, but the large signing bonuses of 2022 and 2023 are thought to be a thing of the past. Now, the financial onus is expected to be more on the teams to bring players aboard.“

I think I’m generally aligned with your thoughts here, but I’ll add three things: -The 3M is a very weak event on the PGA Tour, so I wouldn’t draw many conclusions from it. -The PGA Tour’s weakest events still draw 5x what LIV draws in the US, even when both are on broadcast TV. -LIV plays on very bland courses. Outside of Valderrama and Doral, does LIV play on any course that you would take over any PGA Tour course?

I don’t think Hovland and Aberg are interested in LIV. They would have go e already if so. If LIV tries to reign in the up front money significantly, they might have issues.

Golf, but meaner

You think Niemann is worse than 19th?

He has a better career so far, but great players are remembered for how they do in majors more than anything else

Niemann has one top-10 finish in 24 Majors. Fleetwood has eight top-10s including seven top-5 finishes in Majors. In eight Majors, Aberg has two top-10s including a 2nd at the Masters in 2024.

He’s a very good player, but there’s a reason why Data Golf only has him 19th in the world

All those wins are asterisks if LIV won’t allow PGA Tour players to play in their league concurrently 😂
