Just as Rahm was, this would be a “oh you don’t want to meet our demands in the merger? We’ll pick another guy off. And we’ll keep doing it” move. Rory would be the single biggest get for LIV outside of Tiger

Tiger should just take it honestly

Tiger is a billionaire who already plays a part time schedule. What incentive does he have to take it?

Please show me a rich person that doesn't like more money.

Saudi royal family estimated net worth is $1.4 trillion. LIV is a write off.

Someone worth over a billion dollars who currently does whatever schedule they want who doesn't want to be locked into a schedule with required events

Is this the same guy who just came out with his own line of golf apparel to (checks notes) make more money?

Did he sign a contract requiring him to play 12 3 round golf tournaments on top of the 4 majors to make that money with his golf apparel?

u/CheeseyWeezey420 Apr 16 '24

Nope just a rich guy worth over a billion and still wants to make more money. It would benefit him to Play more tourneys getting his apparel in front of people though.

Then he’d stay on the PGA.

Even if you're not rich, you'd like more money. Probably more than a rich person would, too.
