[@stephenmcqually2983]

I disagree. Keep LIV and PGA split, bring them together at majors

[@washredskin887]

They don't need to re- unite. The LIV guys? I don't miss them. New stars on the Tour are being born. Out of sight out of mind is how I feel about LIV. Plus their product is absolutely terrible.

[@fieldingmellish6856]

Totally agree ! The LIV guys know their images are fading.

[@artoffderidikulous3009]

It would be nice, but if I'm honest I don't watch LIV and I don't miss any of the golfers who left for LIV. But as an avid player, my interest in pro golf has taken a huge hit: living in the NE, the Masters can't come fast enough as it signals that my golf season is just around the corner. This year it seems that the tournament took me by surprise, I had no idea it was on till the Friday and barely watched any of the live coverage let alone any of the highlights. I am looking forward to hitting the links asap, but I have little interest in what the pros are up to.

[@jordan-xe2yb]

This is where I’m at as well. And my circle of friends…same. It’s unfortunate.

[@fieldingmellish6856]

Has your interesting in watching golf taken a “big hit” because of the players who left for LIV ?

[@jordan-xe2yb]

@@fieldingmellish6856 a significant hit, yes. Mostly it’s the non elevated PGAT events I can’t watch. Won’t watch LIV at all.

[@davidgabrielsen2139]

The liv guys had four guys who missed the cut and they were a combined 40 over par. Forty! Smith and Bryson at -2. Haddon was even. Overall they were a combined 67 over par. Wearing shorts, playing 54 holes, they are losing their competitive edge. Not sure why you think we need them.

[@mikeadams4230]

The only people thinking LIV and PGA need to come together are the golfers that gave up their professional golf career to go to LIV and play less golf. 3 or 4 years those guys will still be crying about everything they voluntarily gave up for money and they will be fading into oblivion. This Masters showed that playing exhibition golf on the LIV tour does not prepare you for the majors. 5 years tops until they are all nothing more than “used to be’s”.

[@amerza18]

I like that Bryson Dechambeau pushes the envelope when it comes to golf. I also like that he's the best content creator on KZbin.

[@bradmiller9121]

he's also the most overrated golfer going now.

[@peterwoodaman5936]

His channel is spectacular.

[@Andeerew1]

@@bradmiller9121 what makes him overrated ?

[@bradmiller9121]

@@Andeerew1 The fact that he gets almost as much press coverage as Tiger did in his heyday. That's a lot of ink for a guy who has 1/10th the wins of Tiger. He's not a "Mad Scientist". Every time he mishits a shot he stares at his clubs because it can't possibly be his fault. Like most long hitters he has a lousy short game, and his putting is positively laughable.

[@Andeerew1]

@@bradmiller9121 dude has no where close to the coverage tiger has bro get real.

[@lisao9486]

They left by their own choice no one made them leave

[@mr.harmon6907]

Does Mike Tirico take anytime off?

[@jordan-xe2yb]

No but he got in trouble when he was young at ESPN….really coming on strong with the female cohorts.

[@17NateJohnson]

Tiger has to figure out how to build his stamina. He just ran out of gas and the wheels came off the wagon.

[@jimzanios3260]

Look at NBA ratings golf is fine

[@mitchs1724]

Didn’t I see the viewership was down?

[@kondwa]

Yes, dunno what they are talking about. Ratings were down 20%

[@davidgabrielsen2139]

20%

[@Handletaken4]

LIV is The Harlem Globetrotters of golf and the 6700 yd resort courses they destroy are the Wash Generals.

[@justapedn1]

Scottie won by 7 over everybody but one guy, so Brandel wasn’t that far off.

[@JohnJohnson-he1yv]

Top 5- PGA, PGA, PGA, PGA, PGA … 7 of top 10 PGA. ‘Nuff said- don’t miss LIV golfers at all! Go enjoy the Club Team while we all watch Varsity. 😂

[@robertdutton311]

Come back and comment after Rory and Matsuyama jump.

[@seanmawson6286]

Oh you're very loud now but last year you were very very quiet but have your moment in the sun it's peanuts like you that take the game backwards😮😮😮

[@davidellis1923]

You will be watching but 50% will not this year so what that tell you?

[@chadricheson1038]

Without Rahm and Brooks it’s not a major.

[@kyledavis635]

Or DJ... those three killed it at the Masters

[@Handletaken4]

Weir, Couples and Singh were better than the 54 Beer League Stars

[@kyledavis635]

@@Handletaken4 No top 5's for the Gen Z frat house. Maybe they would have done better if the Masters had blared garbage music across the course during play...

[@tko9624]

I watch LIV over P Pga tour any days. LIV is more fun than pga. Mike Tirico is 100% correct.

[@mikesalois3028]

None of LIV players want to go back, get over it.

[@slooptribe]

The key is that the PGA tour is greedy and they don’t want the players to have control. The PGA Tour enjoys being the tyrant in control of their product.

[@PeterBrasso]

What one sided tripe lIV had 4 players in the top 12 They only had 13 competing out of a field of 79 All but 4 Liv players made the cut ! I love watching DJ, Cam, Rahm, Hatton, deChambeau, Reed, Mickelson, and all the other start at Liv events. PGA tournaments are boring as bar S*it. It’s only the majors that are saving them

[@fieldingmellish6856]

That was edited …?

[@PeterBrasso]

@@fieldingmellish6856 Yes, fixing up an incorrect spellcheck The message remains the same

[@danmyers9372]

Easy answer to get them back together. Just have the LIV players donate all their Saudi blood money to charity.
