Maybe, if the Saudi backed group financing everything gets tired of losing money even though they have untold wealth then it’s all over.

I could see a LIV tour for aging players sort of like a bridge between the PGA tour and Senior Tour but for players in their prime I can’t see how it’s beneficial other than the purses are so much bigger, OTOH the endorsements can’t be as good on the LIV tour since no one watches the sport on TV.

We're talking as if the LIV has been around on TV for years. Last week was the first week. If the money keeps flowing they will make it and compete as another world golf league.

Since I don’t trust the Saudis, it always seemed to me, in the back of my mind, that the main reason for LIV allows the Saudis to now get their nose further under a lot of tents, world wide.

Mexico
USA(a lot of cities)
Singapore
Australia
SPAIN
UK
