1. Hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣

[Traildogbob]

12. Bag of shit

Phil was on a news show after Obama’s first win. He said he was going to have to quit golf because Obama’s taxes would bankrupt him. Yet here he still is. Probably never paid taxes. Never missed a stroke. I hate that prick.

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

42. I liked Mickelson years back when

he finally won a Masters and his wife was undergoing cancer treatments. He was hugely popular among the fans at Bethpage, NY when they had the U.S. Open there.

He has been a total dick ever since and I'm like you now- I can't stand him.

[empedocles]

28. 'Phil, do it for BONESAWS'

[Sky Jewels]

2. Good.

I hope all these greedy a-hole golfers regret joining this disgusting tournament.

5. Although I play golf a little

and respect the rules and decorum, I totally support this.

Yell, holler, mess up their play....give them hell.

[MyOwnPeace]

18. Years ago, debating the 'decorum' of golf.......

the guys on TV whisper as a golfer approaches the ball to tee off or to putt. The ball is SITTING THERE - STILL - NOT MOVING - waiting to be hit.

A major league batter from 'out-of-town' steps into the batter's box, 30,000, 40,000, 50,000 thousand HOMETOWN fans cheering for the pitcher to THROW a hard ball at the batter, sometimes approaching 100 MILES PER HOUR!!!!!

So, tell me - who is 'under' more pressure?

What a joke.......

[cstanleytech]

38. Hmm to be fair in golf its just one player with a limited time and ability to correct any mistakes

assuming they even have the wiggle room to do so.
Baseball though has a large team supporting each other along with time to try and correct mistakes.
Of course I detest all sports so I don't care who wins and I would happily cheer if all the networks decided to stop airing all sporting events

[zipplewrath]

39. It's been done many times

Golfers don't care if there is a general level of noise in the background. The problem is silence interrupted by one sharp noise during the swing. You'll see in Phoenix on the 16th pro's encourage the crowd to cheer while they hit.

And there is a legend of a conversation between Ted Williams and Sam Snead where Ted mentioned that he had to hit fast balls with a cheering crowd and Snead pointed out that "he had to play his foul balls".

[MyOwnPeace]

45. Ah! Great story.....

I can certainly hear Ted and Sam going through THAT debate!

[Evolve Dammit]

7. It really shows how many are simply OK with murder, torture and dismemberment. Fuck them all.

And fuck any of these PGA pros who are good with it. May you end on the quadruple bogey of after-life; aka Satan's back nine.

[Sky Jewels]

10. And these pro golfer asswipes are already multi-millionaires.

Why do they need this blood money?

[Evolve Dammit]

14. I don't think they care at all about anything but $ and owning the libs (Cult 45)

[ProfessorGAC]

34. One I Find Most Annoying...

...is Dustin Johnson.
He took $125 million for a 3 year commitment.
With his tournament winnings, and FedEx Cuo money, he made $31 & 45 million the last 2 years.
He was making $38 million per year, but signed onto the slimeball sponsored tour for an extra 3.67 million per year. Not even 10%.
But, off course sponsorship & appearance money went down!
He was already very wealthy, and took up with murderous dictators over what may turn out to be extra pennies.
Very disappointing..

[rurallib]

8. Methinks Mickelson has the morals of a gnat

his fellow LIVers little more.

[gab13by13]

20. Mickelson blew his money gambling,

the Saudis are bailing him out. The Saudis did the same for Trump Tower leasing floor space to bail trump out.

[TNNurse]

9. Blood money

[Marcuse]

11. Change the address of the golf course from Lamington Road to Jamal Ahmad Khashoggi Parkway

[RestoreAmerica2020]

19. An excellent idea! I was just informed what the outrage was all about from

..DUer since do not follow golf..didn't get it..now I understand the outrage. #$#@!

Thing is can I see ffg hosting, playing bc he's a fucking culero [asshole] but American golfers? Porque? Why? For the dinero?

Haven't seen entire roster..pero, my god couldn't they sit this series out. They do know that they [American golfers] participating sold their soul to the diablo..and it's just evil, vile of them not caring about those who died on 9/11, those who survived the aftermath. Hope they have a fucking good time!

13. How many stokes with the golf club vs strokes of the bone saw?

How many stokes with the golf club vs strokes of the bone saw?

[Evolve Dammit]

16. They could care less. Probably view that as a "hoax" like Orange Man tells them.

[keithbvadu2]

17. Yeah... Or - How many 9-11 victims per hole is par?

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

43. Great point. 15 of those 19 murdering 9/11 hijackers

were Saudi Arabians.

Yet because Saudi Arabia is parked on top of the world's largest oil reserves, the U.S. looks the other way and considers them our "friends".

[SouthernDem4ever]

21. Sorry Phil. I used to root for you.

Now I realize you are for sale to the worst kind of bidder.

[applegrove]

22. I saw Charles Barkley talk about the tournament yesterday and he was going on

about forcing morality on the golfers. Morality optional now for sports organizations. It's an annoyance. Score one for the corrupt in the world.

[phylny]

24. My husband just said that

they wanted Barkley to do commentary, and he said they’d have to give him $60 million a year.

[applegrove]

27. This from Reliable Sources:

Barkley abandons LIV Golf talks

"SNIP......

Basketball legend Charles Barkley won't join LIV Golf as a broadcaster after all. After publicly expressing a significant amount of interest over the idea of cashing in and jumping to the Saudi-backed company, Barkley said that he has decided to remain at TNT (full disclosure: TNT and CNN are both owned by Warner Bros. Discovery).

......SNIP"

[BlackSkimmer]

31. I thought I read that he played there the other day?

Too lazy to look it up, so maybe I misread it.

I was disappointed when I read that.

[ZonkerHarris]

23. hilarious

[flying_wahini]

26. I heard on NPR an interview talking about this and said that Tiger was given several offers

And even when offered a Billion dollar contract that he turned them down.

Can you imagine the burn that TFG got from that?! LOL!

[Kid Berwyn]

29. They used to behead children.

All that stopped, though, right? Gotta ask Phil or Greg…

[Tennessee Hillbilly]

32. Is this tournament being shown on any of the major networks?

I looked at my local TV listings and CBS is showing the PGA Rocket Mortage Classic. But I don't have cable.

[zipplewrath]

40. No

right now they are "streaming only".

I was in a sports bar Thursday and some streaming channel (CV? EV? Chine?) was showing it. Crowds didn't look all that big really.

[gratuitous]

33. Jeez Phil, are you that hard up for money?

I'll send you a sawbuck so you don't have to prostrate yourself for bonesaw. Have some dignity, man.

[ProfessorGAC]

35. The Answer Is Yes

After he claimed to do all his own investment work, the guy who actually managed his money told him to get bent.
Then Phil DID do his own.
He made several dumb investments & took a few beatings.
Add that to his gambling problem, and ges, he is that hard up.
He's an idiot & a punk. I had the displeasure of being around him at a few Western Opens, and f9und he is a phony tool.

[moondust]

36. The Bone Saw Boys

are a-whackin' and a-crackin' with the beaten cheatin' Dork in Chief!!!!

Yee-Haw!!! Sportswashin' gone wild!!!!!

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

37. Rules of Golf limit the number of clubs in the bag to 14. Ball retriever doesn't count. Neither ..

... does an umbrella. Is there a ruling on bone saws?

[zipplewrath]

41. Only as a "training aid"

You can't have training aids, well you can't USE them anyway. So as long as they don't saw any journalists up during the round, they're good. Er, uh, well, no penalty anyway.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

46. Those professional golfers would never saw up a journalist during a round of golf.

That's why they have caddies.

[zipplewrath]

47. Ha!

[EnergizedLib]

44. Good

Make these people squirm.
