I never saw that deal
but yeah , the PGA is changing for the good thanks to people like Norman , Mickleson
here is an example of a good change ……a lot of the players travel across the country in their cars for tournaments
they practice on Tuesday and Wednesday and start play on Thursday
if the player misses the cut on Friday , they go home , NO pay
all the traveling , gas , motels , food , the player pays out of their pockets
what other job does a person spend about four days on without NO guarantee of a paycheck?
well that’s about to change , there will be a $5000 dollar stipend to ALL players who miss the cut to cover travel expenses
a lot of good changes to benefit the Players
thanks LIV

Well money makes one happy fer sure ... maybe I misplaced a word in the $500K from East Lake .. Will Zalatoris had to withdraw with a bad back and will get last-place money of $500,000.

i would rather see the players get the money rather than the board members of the PGA
I would bet good money China is behind the whole thing

H€ll yes. But me sniffs more than a bit of PGA trying to be generous. A counter to LIV perhaps?

exactly
and then there is the Tiger and Rory Show coming soon to a coliseum near you
TMRW Sports -- a business venture spearheaded by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy -- announced Wednesday the creation of a new technology-focused golf league in partnership with the PGA Tour. The TGL will be the latest league to try and gain a foothold in the world of golf as it aims to modernize both the viewing and playing experience for fans and players alike.

Never saw that - thanks for the link.
I'm actually not surprised. A number of sporting codes have embarked on this type of successful money spinning venture many years ago - IPL (cricket), rugby, tennis and even more recently, swimming.
The world's your oyster when you have money and a bit of clout
Did you see that Sam Burns shot? Chipped straight up in the air,hit the pole and dropped in the hole.
Good game going.

spoiled kid with a big ego

Saw Tiger when he was a Kid on the TV Show "That's Incredible", he was great even then! I Loved Playing until I took it in College, after the instructor found out I was Left Handed but Playing Right Handed, she told me..."I NEVER want to see you use another Right Handed Club! After that I couldn't get a Ball off the Ground, and Quit. Was the Best in the Class before that, a LOT better then she was, Haven't played since, but still love watching it. Makes me mad all over again, I was a good Player, we had a Par 9 Course some friends owned a few miles from home we'd be there or Playing Tennis every day! Loved Both & Miss my Friends!
