Killing a innocent man and cutting him up into pieces is a mistake? Greg Norman is being paid big bucks simply to break up the current set up by offering millions. If those players want to play in the new league well off you go and dont come back, it not majors, its not golf, its simply for the money.
Greg… what a leader.
Imagine if the media brings up native Americans, the Iraq war, or Julian assange every time an event is brought up in the West?
not all money is good money
The holier than thou attitude from the standard coach potatoes in Nike tracksuits is comical.
It's a Golf Tour, but PGA will make it about human rights to stop competition, so then they attack Saudi human rights abuse. The problem with that is USA has an even more atrocious human rights abuse record, for example you execute millions of unborn babies per year
a legend in his own head….
Saudi’s investing in Golf…. Seems Better Than investing in US Weapons to Kill..
Sounds like PGA is Against Capitalism And Free markets
Desperate Norman is Begging …. 4 Golf Professionals …. 2 Play 4 Rich Murderous Saudis …. Must B a Joke?
Yeah Norman …. U Made a Mistake.
The host of this is wrong. The call in guy is smart. Its not about where the money comes from. If the pga wants to control the players then they need to sign them to contracts with fixed pay as well as the normal price money
PGA tour has become a social justice league. Sports has no business getting involved in politics! The NBA is by far the largest group of hypocrites around!
Give Norman a break won't You? Can't You see He doesn't possess nor earn ENOUGH money. He doesn't own sufficient amounts of jet helicopters or mansions etc. Do You actually expect a man to go quietly away in fulfillment of accomplishment? With these bloke's it is Never enough!
The watch collections of F1 drivers and PGA tour players could build a large children’s hospital. Golf wants to kill itself, thank goodness. Give each group knives.
Nice to see golf in the USA has adopted adopted a totally woke agenda. What are they going to do when a transgender wants to play on the LPGA.
I am sure the USA is responsible for more deaths in the middle east than Greg Norman. Greg Norman no deaths v USA hundreds of thousands.
As in everything money rules. The lesser players will go.
So this has nothing to do with golf. Yeah boys get a bit of hate speech going. When are you going to call them out as anti-Semites just for good measure. Who writes your stuff the BLM.
No Norman fan. Last century he tried to start a world golf tour. PGA slandered him then stoled his Ideas. Waiting for the replay.
what have the top golf brands said about any of their sponsored players potentially playing on LIV tour. From a moral/potential commercial issue will they still be happy to have their products associated with Saudi money?
The US and EU tut tutted about Khashoggi murder and then sells Saudi $Billions of weapons, fighter jets to kill Yemenis,flew the Saudis out of the US post 9/11.The West are Hypocrites, they keep the Saudi Mafia royal family in power so the flow of Oil to the west is uninterrupted ,the west don't care about human rights as long as they keep oil flowing and they invest their money in the USA and Europe
What country is preaching about human rights abuses ? Anyway, golfers should commit and compete where they choose. It’s only media persons making the rivalry. And of course the top 10 money leaders don’t want changes
It's a golf tournament for pros. Why keep tying it to Saudi govt system? Unless the US and the world stops doing business with the Saudis, all this morality play is just hypocrisy. Why is golf suddenly bound by the Saudi politics? PGA is surely paying these media folks to kill the next golf tour. Stay strong Greg!
Arnold told Norman to slow down. Shortly thereafter the PGA launched the world golf events. Norman’s idea. Really my hero Gary Player always talked about playing worldwide
All for MORE tournaments world wide. To hell with the PGA. American Golf is just a bit self centered. So many players of skill could use another path to income. Beware of an international movement to not play here in the USA. PGA has alot to lose here so I understand the hard line. PGA has been the top dog but a player should be allowed to choose to play closer to home, and make a great living without a threat of a lifetime ban.
The up and coming players will most certainly change the future of golf
Can u check to see if Jack was ask about the LIV job and he turned them down cold, then they went to Gregg the 🐍 the snake in the grass, sorry the shark?
It would be good for world golf if there were more competing tours and less monopolistic ones. However, it should not be with tainted money, suspect regimes and narcissistic individuals.
Hey bud, we’re not all leftist fascist like you.
Who cares where the money comes from it's all about the money
Yet all you pompous asses by gas from Saudi Arabia
