Long live LIV golf!
how can people complain about Rory?
As always
Money talks 😮
Poor delusional leprechaun
They didnt hurt the pga tour by leaving……rory is a clown
Shout out to everyone who knew this day would come. Rory needs some ice, big time salty much!! Lol
He is fooling himself that LIV is not a part of this, decision making resides with the power of the money
Boring! Shut up and play golf Rory 🤦🏽♂️ You’re not an elder statesman. Focus on what you do best instead – the “playing” aspect of golf.
Rory hates live cus he didnt get that check…….and how lame he look just bashing liv sround ever corner……ULTIMATE TONE DEAF RESPONSE
Time for the LPGA to split away?
He's kidding himself if he thinks the new owners will allow his feelings to keep star players off the PGA tour. PGA controls the thing? They have seats on the board and a CEO to be the worker bees. But the owners have the chairman, and will keep the PGA well in check.
That a bunch of bs 😂
The Michael Scott Paper Company!!!
Sanctimonious & bitter. You got played chump. PIF have the most money & control of this merger not Jay Monoham. Jay just pulling a power move to consolidate his position. It will back fire. Feel sorry for Greg Norman if he gets dropped by the Saudis.
"At least the PGA controls how the money is spent"
😂😂😂😂😂…this guy got jokes
You never ever turn down Saudi money.. you take it first and ask questions later… these PGA players will regret that moral decision for the rest of there lives, what a bunch of fools.
The company yet to be named owns the Pga,dp,liv, and asian tours. Monohan is the ceo of that company that hasn’t been named. Monohan has to make deciding that are best for the investors(pif). That means their top assets need to play. Liv players included.
Hopefully Rory is right about this. Much respect for him
Give it a rest rory now the Saudis own it what you gonna do? Stay I think.
Rory has sold out!
This is a sad day for Golf. So much for the "sports washing" narrative, now they (the PGA and whoever else you want to add) have sold out and will happily take the so-called "blood money" they were vehemently against at the start.
It almost feels like the PIF engineered this whole thing from the start and knew that ultimately money will win in the end, forget ethics, morals, integrity, money is the King baby!!!
Puppet!
Monahan singing a different tune yesterday than he sang a year ago, I could throw him further than I trust him
A cartel of the organization of petroleum exporting Countries controls the pga
This guy is talking like the Saudis have his family in a basement somewhere.
When will people learn to stop drinking the Kool Aid. This was always about money. The PGA could not rival that SAUDIA money. They are in London talking, shaking hands and clinking glasses, playing golf working out that money deal. Your at the bottom going for each others throats while they civilly work out that money deal. Pay attention to your own life and your own family and make sure they are straight first. That's exactly what the players did who went to the LIV tour and took the money.
A year ago Monahan used the 9/11 families and the 9/11 tragedy to question the character of anyone going to play the LIV tour. He also threatened the PGA tour players with lifetime bans for joining the LIV tour. Now he is accepting the Saudi blood money.
Golf is now a joke. Right up there with basketball, baseball, and football. Golf was a gentlemans sport. All the others are full of overpaid adults playing childrens games for a living. May as well lump em all together. If it wasn't for all the charity work those leagues do, I'd be fine with shutting down professional sports altogether. Make em all get real jobs that help society.
rory the pga gobshite no more
Fans upset? Patrons surely? Anyway certainly something I wouldn't be losing sleep over.
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
So, will LIV Golf become new sponsors of Newcastle United 🤔
What, the PGA and some Golfers have sold our for the Saudi Blood Money over their nonsense "principles." I'm shocked! Shocked I tell you!
😒
Saudis doing what they do, buy people who are for sale. Crown Prince Bone Saw said the same thing Rory did. "Money talks."
He is class, even in a difficult situation, he put out the highest quality answers in a very tough situation. Far better than any of the representatives for the clown league, he can hold his head high moving forward!
Defenetily money is not his problem!
Rory really has class, wherever he plays, I will watch.
Its tough for Rory and he’s obviously conflicted. I disagree with him that the PGA are gonna have control. They’ll be beholden to the PIF (Saudis) ultimately. Money rules all.
I’m done with professional golf now. Permanently.
How two faced is this turncoat
They golfers that went to LIV were honest. They play for fortune and fame, in that order. And the fame is about winning majors. Rory has pocketed a very large fortune, in no small part by cashing checks from Nike. Nike promotes taking a knee in protest in the US, and bows down in subservience to the dictatorship in communist China. They ignore human rights violations in China in order exploit child and slave-like labor and to be allowed to sell to a population that is ~4 times the size of the US. Rory is a top spokes person for Nike, but claims moral objections to Saudi money… sure… what a guy. I respect Tiger and Jack who disagreed with LIV but did not claim mythical moral superiority.
Rory is imploding.
Rory and the other PGA guys now want the Saudi money because they think they can get it without catching any heat for it. You made your choice of “reputation over money”, don’t change your convictions now you bunch of hypocrites.
I am not crying for RORY, he knew what he was in for. Remember that both himself and Tiger have their own tour company (Tommorow Golf) in which they have signed their own big name players including John Rahm , Justin Thomas and others (begins in 2024) I don't see their players sanctioned or penalised in any way. Rory had plenty to say as a PUPPET for Jay Monahan and Tiger Woods, now he simply regrets it because it didn't work out for him.
