[QUOTE="Illinirog70, post: 1877318, member: 748645"] The BEST thing that has happened for the remaining PGA players since ever is the formation of LIV golf. The fat-cats at the top of the PGA have hoarded over 3/4ths of a BILLION dollars, ALL earned on the backs of the players and have not distributed a DIME to the players. Now that LIV golf is here, suddenly there are guaranteed purses for all entries in some tournaments, as well as Much higher first place awards. The competition has forced the PGA out of their monopolistic stance, much like the AFL did to the NFL. Yes, the Saudi Arabian backers are not the nicest folks, but are the owners is other sports leagues angels? Give the PLAYERS the money even if you have to pry it out of the PGA fat-cat's greedy fingers! The PGA has done nothing to earn your loyalty. As a fan, watch golf for the enjoyment of seeing men and women performing the sport at an unbelievably high level, and working extremely hard at their craft to make a buck. And that includes former Illini (including Pieters) in whatever league they compete in. [/QUOTE]
