   Phil exposed the PGA Tour Mafia and now the Boss Monahan and his little millionaire Capos are piling on Phil.

   The PGA Tour is going to need good lawyers because they are going to get hammer with antitrust lawsuits.

   Why is the PGA Tour afraid of? Nobody is going to take their right of saving tee times honoring convicted wife beaters or crackhead, like George Floyd.

   “(The PGA Tour’s) brought millions and millions of dollars to communities, it’s brought great competition, great television,” Nicklaus said. “Why would I not support that? Instead, I’m going to go support for my own benefit, see 40 guys break away from the PGA Tour at the whim of an advertising agency in Saudi Arabia?

   so says the G.O.A.T.

   Looking in the wrong direction with Phil here. It’s all about revenge for Norman and rightly so. When he was at the top of the heap he suggested to the top brass about Tourneys for the top golfers with big cash payouts. The PGA said get lost and life moved on. Then shortly after Tiger arrived the WGC events started(1999) with the “Top Golfers” and Big Cash” prizes. Seemed that’s what Norman suggested years prior, so Any chance he gets to take a jab at the PGA he will. The new League would feature big cash payouts and even “Team” events which the viewers seem to be clamoring for. The League won’t likely get off the ground but guess what? The PGA has initiated bigger cash payouts, and go figure some “Team” events scheduled this fall. Who woulda thunk it that the PGA was that forward thinking. All they needed to be was pressured. So maybe Phil wasn’t that wrong? As for demonizing the country the league is started from, maybe some of the pros And PGA should see what’s happening with NBA pros and their, lets say equipment brands, and where they’re made? You see a lot of swoosh’s out there.

   So, apparently, Phil called Shipnuck last fall (2021) and just started talking about LIV and the Saudi League. It all comes out and Phil tries to say it was off the record?’ C’mon man! And then, Phil calls Shipnuck last week and tries to backtrack saying it was off the record. But at the end of the day this is Phil being Phil. We all saw this coming when he threw Tom Watson under the bus after the Ryder Cup loss. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong but Tom Watson didn’t hit a shot in that Ryder Cup did he? This was just arrogance gone unchecked. But on a serious note, is Phil going to be looking over his shoulder for the rest of his life? He was right about the Saudis being scary @$&*%^s. They do kill people.

    Gambling Phil has relapsed. Kept doubling down with his mouth and ego and lost.

    The final chapter of your career pretty much rewrites the others with people who thought they knew you.

    SGL, Norman, Mickelson, Trump golf courses seem a bad mix.

    Regarding occasional world tour or super golf league chatter over the years, Norman seems ready to fail again.

    It seems to me there are several people on here that have never said or done something that they wish they hadn’t.

    Golf Channel are doing their bidding for the PGA tour. Talk about throwing someone under the bus. It is quite clear the tour is afraid of competition, much like every crony corporation these days. It’s quite rich that the tour and OEMS care so much about human rights while being in bed with China. What a joke?

      Yes. Such a joke that some think they must choose one evil or the other evil.

      Are you saying Golf Channel is throwing Phil under the bus because they’re reporting this story? I’m sorry friend but Phil has done a pretty good job of that all on his own. Again…

    What a goof! I have no respect for Mickelson.

    A man who can’t stand by his convictions for a dollar is not a man worth listening to.

    I could care less what happens to this coward.

    Gotta love Phil though for always being authentic and wild, coming back across from 2 fairways over trying to make a great save.

    I think there are slightly more import things to be concerned about other than a narcissist golfer…

      @PR; like concern about narcissist leader(s)

      “So Putin is now saying, ‘It’s independent,’ a large section of Ukraine,” Trump continued. “I said, ‘How smart is that?’ And he’s going to go in and be a peacekeeper. That’s the strongest peace force. We could use that on our southern border. That’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen.”

      He then called Putin a “very savvy” person whom he claimed to know “very, very well.”

    Too late Phil. You should have done the math first. It takes 10 years to build trust and 10 seconds to destroy it.

    Good bye.
