- March 2022, LIV begins and Smash are a core team in the ecosystem
- 21st April 2026, Gooch shits all over Smash (a team he had pledged his allegiance to) & selfishly created his own team in his image
- 30th April 2026, PIF pulls all LIV funding
Coincidence? Don’t think so.
@officialokgc Have some class. No one other than Gooch and his goons think this rebrand has been a good idea. Means nothing to any of us.
Days after OKGC was announced, the PIF ended their funding. Coincidence? I don’t believe in coincidences. #NoToOKGC

@lahey_jim69950@thegolfeditor@officialokgc Smash’s legacy will live on. Thankfully it looks like OKGC don’t have any time to build a legacy. Brooks is bigger than the whole of OKGC combined.
@lahey_jim69950@thegolfeditor@officialokgc That’s a low blow, Jim. Thankfully it looks like the move to OKGC has had a catastrophic impact on the league. Just days after Gooch’s takeover was announced, the PIF pulled out. Coincidence? I think not. #NoToOKGC

@lahey_jim69950@Element_M1ller There isn’t a clip, Jim. All I see is a quote tweet about Alvarez’s penalty? I watched the game yesterday, it was a decent pen but wasn’t spectacular. I thought Gyokeres’ pen was better.
Makes me very happy that OKGC will never be represented at any level. Serves Gooch and his team of goons right for what they did to smash. Many people with egg on their faces today- especially @lahey_jim69950
Expect an apology soon, Jim.
@arlowhite Oh shut up Arlo and stop playing dumb. The UK, Spain and Australia are not the same as *checks notes* little old Oklahoma. Smash was a global brand worth hundreds of millions. People all over the world could relate to smash.
OKGC does not help grow the game.

This is it 👇🏻 A global brand people could connect with all over the world was destroyed overnight by the asterisk man, leaving many fans- myself included- feeling lost, hurt, and confused. #NoToOKGC
@KylePorterNS@seedgolfco I’m glad you see the funny side, Kyle. I am distraught with this move from Gooch. The guy only thinks of how he can put himself front and centre. A selfish selfish man. #NoToOKGC
@arlowhite@livgolf_league Stop acting like this is a good thing Arlo. I know your hands are tied and you need to positively promote the league- but it’s a disgrace what Gooch and his goons have done to Smash. Down the gutter just like that.
Great to see Bryson commit his future to the world’s league. He is a real one.
His silence on the demolition of Smash is disturbing- he has one of the biggest platforms in the league. Hopefully he will chirp in soon.
