As completely switched off as some of our members. It takes something special to be that blissfully unaware.

🚨🏌️😔 #BLINDSIDED — Former Cleeks GC star Richard Bland tells @TheScotsman that he was not expecting LIV Golf to fold.

“Yeah, I was surprised. I read it for the first time yesterday on social media when I woke up. Yeah, I wasn’t expecting that. Everything I was aware of was positive and it looked like it was going to move forward. So, yeah, to wake up to that was not what I was expecting.”

“…We were kind of hearing that they’d got the players. Or they’d got enough players that would support it. Obviously they’d have had to get more players, but, yeah, I wasn’t expecting it.”

On what he’d say to Scott O’Neil: “In all fairness, I don’t think there is anything to say. What can you change? Maybe the communication could have been better the last seven days because I am sure they probably knew what was going on. Yeah, to read it on social media is not ideal. But it is what it is and I can’t change it. So just move on.”

On what Bland will do next: “Obviously it has left me a little bit up in the air. I don’t really have a huge amount of options outside of LIV. Obviously I can come and play on this circuit (the European Legends Tour) if I want to. Right now the Champions Tour is a pretty closed shop, so I can really do anything there for another nine months or so and, even then, I don’t know what I would have. Not much from what I’ve heard. We’ll just have to wait and see.”

“I’m done kind of chasing the game. I’m not going to chase it any more. I haven’t got the desire to do that. I could rejoin the tour, but my category isn’t going to be great. I don’t want to go to places where I don’t want to be playing. I’d much rather go where I want to play. I’ve kind of closed the book on the DP World Tour and that’s fine, I’ve dealt with that. I’ve got no desire to go back there and play full time.”

“Right now, I am looking forward to spending a bit of time at home after this week. But LIV has put me in that fortunate position where I don’t have to make any hasty decisions. If I want to take a little bit of time off, I can take some time off.”

@NUCLRGOLF @rajshamani @BrysonLegion Just no. Shut the fuck up. YouTube golf is out kicking this dickhead 1000:1. If anyone thinks for a second that Bryson is a needle mover they’re kidding themselves. People tune in to watch him fail.

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

Not being a complete dickhead is a start.

Guess we know what’s happening after the last tournament of the season.

This is insane...and I can't stop watching it...

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

Where my blockheads at? 🤮

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

@BrendanPorath By far he represents the best of our business and has zero self interest in mind in every decision he makes. Truly a blockhead.

[Brendan Porath @BrendanPorath]

As a club pro who is administering member events on a weekly basis, I trust Michael Block’s judgement if something has simply gone beyond the pale of competition.

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

@Daniel_Rapaport This is pathetic trolling at best.

Guys have a win and deserve to take a week.

I’m sure you’ve grinded like they have on some very different things.

I’m sure the couple of people looking forward to seeing him are going to stay away.

Get your head out of your ass. Be better.

He didn’t shake Grillo’s caddie’s hand. What a jerk.

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

Is @Letterman caddying for @lhgolf5?

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

@ANTIFAldo Excellent callback.

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

@Rogers Sounds like they need to be better in Canada and let their customers see the @TheOpen. Absolute disgrace that in 2026 a “manual switch” needs to happen.

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

@SecretRetailPRO *paper cards

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

@SecretRetailPRO This is an hilarious observation at club championships when using papers cards. The higher handicap men’s flights and women (regardless of handicap) always try to add them up regardless of being asked not to.

Who doesn’t want the Schwab Wrangler?! Anybody… Anybody?

@GolfDigest There are worse gifts.

(Not many worse, but there are some)

@NUCLRGOLF They’ve brought in the Bobs!

@ProGolfCritic @livgolf_league Reading the transcript makes things seem better than watching the interview. He doesn’t sell the dream particularly well, even if there’s real potential in what’s being said.

[Anonymous Pro Shop @ProShopStories]

They’re counting in metric.

@secretclubprov The benefits of spending less time doing it and just having to edit are huge. People scared of essentially having a personal assistant that no golf pro could ever afford. More time to do golf stuff and get enraged by people face to face.
