@PGATOUR @GolfChannel you know Min Woo Lee is above Sam Burns and Fowler in the leaderboard? Maybe show his shots rather than theirs

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@NUCLRGOLF @JeffDarlington Wouldn’t happen on LIV. Disgrace

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@KylePorterCBS @JeffDarlington Don’t have this issue on LIV

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@EPatGolf Why do you assume it’s about the money? And before you tout the $ figure, a guy making a change in work place due to issues there, but still demanding his worth doesn’t mean he’s gone for the $$$

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@PowerFade6 @AlanShipnuck @Daniel_Rapaport It’s just finished its second year. FMD get a grip, things take time

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@Justiniodiddly @AlanShipnuck @BenBerdankweed Standard American response

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@Bucks42Bdogs24 @NUCLRGOLF Cam Smith will win more majors than Rory

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel The feeder tour you mean?

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel Correct - but whilst they don’t do anything to support, what is the incentive to prioritise playing here over a swing season event? Nothing. I’m leaving this here - pointless discussing with someone who can fly to 15 different countries in an hour

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel They did - imagine what would happen to the golf industry in the country with additional top events each year. We are a country on the other side of the world - a little help isn’t too much to ask yeah?

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel There is sponsorship, but attracting the best players in the world requires significant cash - an issue experienced by every tour. But co-sanction en event here and that’s where it starts. But clearly no appetite to do so

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel The fact that LIV, as a tour, has events worldwide is growing the game. The players who went there knew that was part of the deal and still went. That equals growing the game. Not sure how much more it needs to be spelt out for you.

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel Mate listen to yourself - that’s my whole point. Put on an event or co-sanction and players will come. But end result is the same for the growth of the game in this country. You clearly don’t get it - here’s to another off season event with 50 people watching.

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel If you don’t think that the biggest player has a responsibility to take a leadership role in the sport then we can end our conversation here. Have a good one

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel So do nothing then yeah? Cool

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel Don’t disagree on what drives sponsorship dollars. My point is, are you trying to tell me that with the wrap around circuit etc, they couldn’t find the ability to at least co sanction an event in Australia? They’ve done nothing, whilst LIV brings a whole event here

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel Yea they did, again all 3 are now on LIV and have always played worldwide. Having a top tier National open field with international players does more for the game and local players than a weak field with little money, OWGR points. Are you American?

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel Then does nothing post to continue the momentum. They’ve tried to monopolise the game and people like brandel can’t fathom that the world isn’t aligned to the US way of thinking

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel Yeah 2 Americans - tringale (now LIV) and Smylie Kaufman. Speith last played in 2017. He came out because his coach is Australian, not because the PGA tour was trying to develop the game worldwide.

LIV brings a whole tour event, US requires us to fork out a fortune for pres cup

[TimmyB85 @B85Timmy]

@beaks1973 @chambleebrandel Paying enormous entry fees, with 2017 the last time a top talent came out to play. LIV has a whole event here each year. The buzz in Aus for the LIV event was enormous and brought an energy for the game that hasn’t been felt for years. People can’t wait for next years event
