Agreed.  :yes:

A little further OT...

Rumor has it that Rory may sign with LIV for something like $850 million.  :shock:

Tiger Woods has been very careful about his comments concerning the LIV all along, and now he is even publicly saying he thinks merging the two leagues is probably the best thing for the future of the game.

Strange turn of events...

Any word on that indoor league that Tiger and Rory were talking about doing? I think that would be something that everyone would want a piece of.
Can't blame anyone for signing a deal to play golf for 850 million.

That indoor TGL thing is supposed to kick off in January 2025.
Looks very cool.

As for the Rory LIV rumor, he says NO.

Like you said, with the astronomical amounts of money they are throwing around, I wouldn't blame Rory or anyone else for wanting to get in on that.

edit: Hard to believe but Jack Nicklaus earned around $9 million in prize money over his whole career, but now that's about average for a PGA tour player who has a good YEAR.  Back in Jack's day they probably never imagined in their wildest dreams that guys would be raking in hundreds of millions just for signing their name to an LIV contract.

Yup.

The Augusta National crowd may be among the more refined folks in Georgia, but a redneck is still a redneck, and I mean that in a good way.  :cheers:

Ain't nobody gonna tell them good ol' boys what they can and can't do, period!  :cheers:

Short version, Tiger's 2000 season would have earned him around $92 million today.

Nobody.
Even.
Close.

I'm telling ya, that man was unstoppable in his early days.
