Doesn’t matter if it was meeting expectations. They had billions to throw in.
The merger includes DP World. Emirates got out run.
Less than 1/4 of the field. 3 of the top 6 at the Masters, 2 of the top 6 at the PGA and the win. All for the tour that the PGA insisted didn’t play “real” golf and the players wouldn’t be able to keep up. Plus of course you’ve got the issue that the Masters probably was going to be changing their entry requirements to keep LIV players available. Thus further weakening the PGA’s “not real” line.
Anybody that’s paid attention to competing leagues in sports has seen this show before. PGA was making all the wrong moves. All the moves the losers have made in the past. Until they made the smart move and took the cash now.
“All for the tour that the PGA insisted didn’t play “real” golf and the players wouldn’t be able to keep up.”
What PGA official said that??? Never heard it.
Your cynicism is a boil.
