I think Nick's management team have said they will not be commenting on the matter, it has been shut down. Greg's opinion, is that the comments made about LIV by Nick not to long ago were out of place and possibly a couple of other things.

He has never said it but this all stems back to the Masters and that famous 6 shot lead that he had only to implode and lose in the biggest collapse in Masters history. I actually love Nick as a commentator, very knowledgeable and precise in his summary of play, no one is saying Greg wasn't a great player but when he opens his mouth these days very few people take notice, if he had of won the Masters it might have been a different story, but he didn't, oh and he didn't get an invite to the Masters is just another thing to throw on the fire, contrary to what he says, he's never accepted that defeat.

Just imagining Rory kicking back with a few pals celebrating his win on a Wednesday arvo and then the LIV news arrived.

Faldo was a great who broke my heart more than once. But his commentary sucks. He talks too much about non-golf things - trying to be a Peter Aliss replica - when he doesn't have the skills to execute. And he does the non-golf things at crucial moments.

But he played this moment perfectly by just leaving it to Greg.

LIV potentially dead, what a shame. No wonder Sergio had his tantrum, the Saudis are going to cut off his pay cheque.

Maybe Cam Smith will learn to play again

He will have to find somewhere to play first.

Wonder what is the live value of Cam's prized RipperGC team equity?

 

[Woody15]

Bizarre interview with Scott O'Neill on the LIV broadcast. Like a used car salesman. Stinks of desperation. Pretty much confirms that the rumours of PIF funding being pulled are accurate.

Just a staged interview from a LIV employee with some soft touch questions accompanied with an edited and scripted video. Nothing but a sales pitch. And a terrible one of that.

This video sums up LIV perfectly me. Completely inauthentic and contrived.

 

[Woody15]

This should pull some players over from the PGAT. Sweet pitch, Scott!



Give Norman his flowers. Doubt he'd sell anything like that.

It's also an amazing 180 turnaround from a league that was set up to be a "play less / control your schedule" set up to now this

Just you wait. RipperGC will go to TGL.

Is Fitzpatrick about to implode

 

[AmericanCrow]

That chip at 18 looked like me

 

[AmericanCrow]

Gotta figure Scheffler wins now

 

[AmericanCrow]

Shows what I know

Fitzpatrick with a dime, Scottie with a moonball well short

 

[AmericanCrow]

Wow big W for Fitzpatrick

Wow big W for Fitzpatrick

And a lovely touch to his ear which in reality was a massive middle finger to the crowd

Re that chip, I know those guys are short game wizards, and I know they intimately know their 56/60s - but geez, why take so much loft into a pressure situation like that? Catching it a bit off was the miss, why risk it?

He was quick to hit it as well--bit of nerves

But alls well that ends well

Deserved to win

radar interviewing lol

It’s weird when we get the US interview from Balionis and then the international one from Radar. He asked more pointedly golf questions I reckon.

That 4 iron into the wind shows exactly why equipment needs to be rolled back. Seeing the best take long irons at consequential moments - and winning the tournament with that shot - is far more interesting than them wedging in to start a putting comp.

Even the 18th in regulation being a chip-off was all because of the clubs they had to take in.
