***2025 PGA Tour Thread***

The whole outrage about LIV seems almost quaint now, like a throwback to a different era. Just let them all back in, let them all play in whatever tournaments they want, who cares, the more stars playing every weekend the better.

I think public outrage would be minimal. I just want to see them all play together.

The issue is probably how you keep the guys who didn't take the money and stuck with the PGA Tour happy. If you're going to let them all back in, I imagine you probably have to compensate them for their loyalty.

If you gave truth serum to the LIV guys think there would be a decent amount who would want the same. Rahm & DeChambeau to name two.

Some definitely, but I saw a Bryson quote just today saying he was happy with LIV, I'm not sure why he wouldn't be, makes tons of money, plays golf, gets to do his Youtube stuff.

Life on the PGA Tour got better because of LIV. The PGA realized they can't treat their assets like garbage. Feels like compensation enough.

For most, yes. But for guys like Scheffler and Rory who turned down hundreds of millions under the belief they'd be out of the PGA for life, I imagine they'd like to see some financial compensation.

I’m not sure it actually got better.

Give them a dozen golf balls or something.

Another setback for Tiger:

I tend to agree, but this runs into all sorts of problems with the qualifying systems that are in place. Seems likely that most of them would have to get sponsor's exemptions until they won a tournament at least, and that does potentially take spots away from loyal players who might have gotten that exemption instead.

Thinking McIlroy or Matsuyama for my OAD for the Players. Anyone have any other ideas? Can’t use Morikawa or Aberg from the Big Dogg list.

I'd prefer to watch Rahm and Koepka play rather than Joe Nobody just because he was loyal, sorry Joe.

Isn't a ruptured Achilles for someone Tiger's age going to keep him out the entire season? Definitely every major.

Aaron Rodgers would agree.

He'll be lucky if he's good to go a year from now.

Unless I'm mistaken a ruptured Achilles does not necessarily mean a full tear, but you'd have to think his age and injury history aren't working in his favor.

 

[cyclonespiker33]

As I began to ramp up my own training and practice at home, I felt a sharp pain in my left Achilles, which was deemed to be ruptured.

This feels like he is still training like a navy seal. The fascination is what stopped him from passing Nicklaus.

I think that's some of it, but I think a lot of them were used for fairly high profile players that haven't won in a couple years.

Right at the start of another big tournament we’re doing the Tiger’s hurt when will he be back thing.

Seems like this has been going on for a dozen years because it has.

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

He needs to hang it up. He doesn't need the money and he has another 30-40 years left. It would be nice to be able to walk
