100% a putting contest. Europe putts like they're at a team competition, with freedom, and the U.S. putts like they're at a PGAT event trying to save par. 🤣 *Take Poulter, for instance. At a Ryder Cup, the guy makes everything he looks at, but put him in a real competition, and then he turns into a club pro. (No offense to club pros). IMO

It's also a little bit more complicated than that. DP world is a Brand, and it's a title sponsor of the European tour. Not sure if it's a 10-year deal. DP World is also a major sponsor for the Ryder Cup between Europe and the U.S. So, all that comes into play along with the 40% stake.

You have to remember that this is the same crowd that lives and dies on every word an anonymous golf announcer says during a golf tournament. 🙂

That's Scottie Scheffler in a nutshell. The minute he starts doing something different, his career is over. 🤣 99% of all golfers would love to have that consistency for just a week. The other 1% that thinks it's boring is right here on WRX. 🤣 (I kid)

WRXers hate everything and everybody. 🤣 Especially announcers and TV ads.

Where are the details of this financial partnership list?

Nah, it's been proven that that's not true. The biggest ratings have come from drama and competitiveness, coming down the back nine on Sunday pulls the biggest audiences regardless of who it is. *Jon Rahm received 69K viewers while leading in his own championship bid.

There you go, right there. Golf Today is my favorite television show. Different strokes for different folks. *PS/ I'd never stare at a five-inch screen for five hours under any circumstance. ~I draw the line at 55 inches.

I have long faced the fact that I know nothing about LIV, and when I ask, I'm considered a detractor of the league.

I've since learned that they watch for the personality of the content creator.

You totally get it! Most watch sports to see people do amazing things that they can't do themselves. IMO That's entertaining (to me), and if they do it with a flair that's extra.

Hogan didn't make that friendly little exhibition match with Europe any bigger than that. It's a putting match. That's just my view of the proceedings; I know that the hype is out of this world because the funds keep the DPWT relevant.

Do you usually act this way with people who don't share your view? I understand why you feel the way you do; I just don't agree with it. Different strokes for different folks. You happen to find a guy playing like a Plus 10 boring, and I find golf excellence by a Professional must-see TV. No worries.

100%. The guy pounds the ball.

Ah, yes..... Big Three Golf. What a promotion.
