January is an important date because per @GabbyHerzig the PGA Tour is not planning to make a decision on LIV players until this process is "set to conclude."
New @FOS: LIV Golf's liquidation process could be underway by early January, per new bankruptcy docs filed today.
The league's remaining assets and liabilities would be transferred to a wind-down trust, operated by a Saudi PIF-appointed trustee.

I'm not one to get worked up about Tiger's appearance or how he's flushing it on a driving range and what that means for a possible return to golf. But at first glance I thought this clip was from 6-8 years ago. He looks good, which is great to see.
When did NBC's Noah Eagle find out he was calling the Bucs-Bears game? What was his prep like? How was it working with Cris Collinsworth for the first time.
I asked him all this and more in a Q&A for a brand new TRAINA THOUGHTS NEWSLETTER.

In the moments after his maiden PGA Tour victory Sunday in Cabo, Blades Brown made sure to thank several people, including his dad.
Parke Brown was initially diagnosed in 2022 with bone cancer and given months to live, only for doctors to discover that he actually had hairy cell leukemia.
That discovery was a lifesaver, literally. That type of leukemia isn’t curable, but it is highly treatable. Parke went through 20 rounds of chemo, only missing two of Blades’ golf tournaments during his treatment.
He wrapped up his chemo about 12 weeks before Blades captured medalist honors at the 2023 U.S. Amateur, where Blades said of his dad’s cancer battle:
“I just use it as fuel. Having him here is just awesome. Like he could not be here right now; that’s crazy to think about. I remember when I qualified, he posted, My son is going to the U.S. Amateur! What dad can say that after thinking that they were going to die?”
Now a few years later, Parke, 55, is doing well health-wise and has been traveling with Blades throughout his nearly two-year professional golf career. He often collects mementos – balls, gloves, etc. – along the way to document Blades’ journey, and it all goes in his man cave back home, a shrine of sorts. Blades' infectious energy; he gets a lot of it from Parke.
On Sunday in Cabo, Parke Brown got to see his only son Blades become a PGA Tour champion, the tour's youngest in 95 years.
Amazing stuff.
Ben James saves his best for last. 🦅
An eagle on the 72nd hole brings him level with Blades Brown at 23-under par and sends the World Wide Technology Championship to a playoff. 🍿

@JeffEisenband When Tyler mentioned that he was going the other night I was shocked but to your point, he rarely misses Cleveland. Now can the Cavs get him the road team crew a better vantage point?
