*what are your thoughts?! What side are you on?*

[@deohin5447]

I'm amazed Jay still has a job. Can't imagine Jay dictating anything to LIV players.

[@calross7143]

You were right about "without the players the PGA is nothing"...but you were so wrong about "we don't really matter". Without golf fans and followers the players would be amateurs playing golf for the love of the game! Fans and followers were and are the reason there are sponsors putting up money for golf...if there weren't a target group (viewers) for their advertising, why would they just throw money in the water...they are business-people and not stupid, they want to see return on their money! And that is where the PGA made their biggest mistake because they got so arrogant with the monopoly they had on golf that they believed golf is everything PGA and PGA golfers! But they are starting to realize that they are not and that presenting a weakened product to fans has repercussions...fans leaving to follow LIV and the money people will realize soon (and some have already and are leaving) that golf is more than just the PGA and America, and that there are a whole world out there that wants golf to be a world sport and not an American Sport!

[@oahujuniorgolfassociationc6656]

I think you mean the PGA Tour. The PGA of America runs the teaching pros and has the one major.

Those guys are independent contractors. Some are higher up in the food chain than others. The elevated events are only for the best players and the never has beens are fighting for the scraps. Like or hate Jay he's in charge and he makes the final decisions with feedback from the elites and the buck stops with him. PGA tour is just fine. Change is a good thing and in a decade the Best Players in the world will compete on The Four Majors and who knows after that. Great video bud. ❤💯 👍

[@thealbinorhino8760]

Why does Rory keep talking 😂

[@thomasholland6291]

Sports journalism has gone stupid in golf. All this shit should be behind closed doors. Typical British press. Rory needs to ignore any question that isn't about his round.

[@andrewclark4369]

If jay can set down with SSG until they reached a deal, they could have done they same with PIF. But they keep pushing it back and only meeting once or twice a year it doesn’t seem they are serious

[@colinclelland8960]

This is key - the desire for a deal from PGAT directors seems to have gone.

[@oahujuniorgolfassociationc6656]

@@colinclelland8960they want that maney but they better watch out what they sign.

[@jimlangdon1947]

Jay has got to go. Why didn’t he stay out on his sick leave?

[@owenhaugh5439]

Maybe all these PGA Pro's really should concentrate on their Golf instead of Tour Policies, looking at those who are winning Tourni's lately.....it's really not those worried about everything outside the ropes...And Tiger cannot play till he's 70 yo....so some older pro's go and get a final big paycheck....Oops all's I keep hearing about the complaints coming from Hatton and Rahm about LIV, and they knew what they were getting into....All this sounds like a bunch of Girls in the school yard.....Just play the game, or you can quit and get a 9 to 5er job which sucks

[@wiill6673]

Mate where did you go!?

[@oahujuniorgolfassociationc6656]

They can’t stand the guy but they are stuck with him. Exactly why they are stuck with him I don’t know. But right now the message is ‘we all have to steer together’ or something like that …which they keep saying including the commissioner. We should also remember as Survivor has taught us, alliances can change. The players on the board could become more loyal to the suits for whatever reason. Anything can happen really. Forget it’s a mad mad mad golf world, This is borderline wild West stuff.

[@colinclelland8960]

Jay doesn’t know what transparency is. His latest interview was a masterclass in talking but saying nothing. Just waiting for him to drop the next big surprise.

[@FrancisFirth]

The new diversion from past and potential conflict is to talk about the decline in fan viewership and the undisclosed plans to get the fans back who lost interest to now return. What now have the players been told to do or else. How to do this is simple. The players can come clean on the real happenings and even threats from those who were supposed to be looking after the PGA Tour as the players were second place pawns and used accordingly. Why was Rory a scape goat, resigned his position on the players board, showed interest in LIV Tour and backed away from LIV almost immediately. Surely not just to play better golf. I'll bet Justin Thomas and his family could tell some interesting stories. Was his play last year a product of something very dark as he was under extreme duress from guess who. Are the pieces of the puzzle forthcoming? And, should we not be soliciting information from LIV players who have nothing to fear from the PGA Tour leadership and who could spill some beans. The questions Jay dodged in his televised press conference were also revealing and probably led to some additional mis-trust issues for a lot of fans. Does anyone suspect there still is a lot of hidden agenda and when and if the players will commit to "the truth will set you free" so a seed of some unity through trust will sprout. How much longer will or can the fans, exhausted and disinterested in conflict remain supportive? Instead of answers there is a thousand more questions. Maybe a change to some real transparent leadership and a way to trust again shall someday occur. How can the seeming bad deeds of the past get put behind us so a new vision, some trust and hope is in the future. One thing is certain, people do not change, what you see is what you will get, and get and get and get again. If I was a player I would let a trusted legal counsel sit at my place on any PGA Tour board or committee to look out for my best interest while simultaneously I would go play some great golf without the distraction and fear. Good luck to everyone as these issues get sorted out.

[@Shimmed]

Jay screwed those golfers out of millions of dollars. He literally had them bent over his desk with their pants at their ankles.

[@oahujuniorgolfassociationc6656]

Nasty analogy but true.

[@williamdenton5716]

We matter Brudda. We, the fans, we are the only thing that matters. It's our dollars that advertisers, sponsors, and charities are striving for. IMO Jay is probably under the control of PIF to a certain extent, whether he knows it or not. But this conversation also is mute. The PGA Tour and the PIF are adversaries. Why do I believe that ? Greg Norman. Greg has been after the PGA Tour for a very, very long time. He didn't partner with PIF because they wanted to be a partner with The PGA Tour. Greg partnered with PIF because they have the weaponry to destroy the PGA Tour. Although you and so many 'analysts' can't seem to see it for what it is, this war is over. The PGA Tour lost. They brought children's scissors to a gun fight and got blown apart by LIV. What is left still looks like the PGA Tour we knew, for now. But what is it really ? No longer the Nobility of a Non-Profit. No longer possessing the absolute faith of the Game and the players. No longer dictating policy, unchecked and unquestioned, worldwide, as they once were. ALREADY, the players are better on LIV. The competition is better on LIV. The potential and the future already are brighter for LIV. I challenge you to name 1 way, 1 action, in which the PGA Tour continues forward as the unquestionable leader of Professional Golf. There is none. The war is over. LIV Won. There is nothing left to see now except where LIV decides to take the game going forward. If there is anyone left to Challenge this it is the Majors. And like it or not, the majors are better with 2 governing bodies in golf. Everyone is better off EXCEPT The PGA Tour. War. Over.

[@oahujuniorgolfassociationc6656]

Wow what spacing. Love it. Imo opinion the pga tour can stay just as strong if they just let the players come back. Sure LIv will be the premier world tour playing 54 holes and 54 players (which is about what they want but could grow much bigger depending how things work out). But even with LIv having the biggest 54 stars, the pga tour can still be the premier mostly full field, 72 hole championships tour…same format as what the majors like to do. Maybe if the Tour asks nicely liv drops an event or two to make the players a little more available. Theres the way the pga tour can stay as prestigious or maybe even more. They just need the players they are blocking to return as much as possible.

[@chrisyore3233]

Monahan should have been released when he took medical leave. Any Corporation would have sent him packing. The PGA threw major players under the bus and it has hurt their fan base and judgement. Everyone has had enough of Jay

[@user-bo5mm6qs6m]

Please read statements correctly and Verbatim

[@thealbinorhino8760]

Feelings hurt?

[@raybowles8587]

Jay needs to go. He is only worried about being in control and filling his pocket. He sure isn't concerned about the future of golf.

[@gooseGoose-et1wl]

Rory is not a person I would pay any attention to , someone as hypocritical as Rory is only detrimental to all others .............!!

[@edbardoe2195]

Careful what you wish for, Monahan has been paid $100 million, he can just walk away and let these whiners try to work it out!
