Who Gives a long crap about the Presidents Cup!!

Really! I'm an avid fan of Golf.. Love the regular seasons, The Majors, even have learned to care about the Fed-X ....

But man the President Cup ( established 94)?

The Ryder Cup with its history is gas to watch..
But the Presidents Cup?
Couldn't care less..

By the way I usually root for the Europeans during the Ryder Cup.. I hate the pompous waving our patriotic flags during these matches.. Patrick Reed really pissed me off during the last one.

Any rate..I love golf....but....

Sorry, but to me, golf seems like a bad way to fuck up a perfectly good walk.

It is hard for me to jump in on a Sunday and care about who is winning or losing.

The President's Cup does seem like something that wouldn't interest me at all.

Why wouldn't they.. He's the best golfer out there for the Americans.
They all have a much better chance if he's playing..

He's #7 in the world. There's 12 guys on each team.
The 7th rated player in the world shouldn't be playing in a field of 24?
Especially when 6 guys in the top 24 and aren't eligible for the field.
Repeating: he's #7 in the world!

I use to be a huge fan, but since seeing him play golf with trump and receive the Medal of freedom award left a very sour taste in my mouth and mind. Thanks for the input 😊

Didn't mean it as snark, BTW.
I understand the disappointment over his association with DOLTUS!
As to the #7, just remember he's won 4 times in 20 months, including a major and the Tour Championship.
It's really hard to win on tour.
