Rick Shiels has signed a deal with the Saudi owned league LIV

It’s not like me to get it completely wrong but apparently he has signed with LIV Golf.😂

Yeah, same here although everyone is speculating he’s joined LIV , noysure what capacity , maybe selling hot dogs 😂

[@danthemaninfierno]

@TopblokeGolf I'm sure you remember... but about a year ago on your channel in the comments I suggested they should have a team of KZbin golfers to go up against the Tour Pros as an interesting side spectacle. I said maybe Rick, Pete Snooze, James Wiltshire and maybe James Robinson as a team to show just how good the Tour Pros are versus "professional golfers" If they are going to do that we should get a cut!

[@PNUKgolf]

Did a vid on this years stats too haha. I've said in the past I think Saudi buy a major brand. Calloway, TaylorMade seem to be in a lot of these collabs and youtuber sponsors. Smells of big daddy in the background pulling the strings in KZbin golf both sides of the pond. No real clue what it is but to me it looks like a winter move to Florida to get the big collabs if he wants to be No 1 spot still. I see Seb On Golf was at the TGL the other night too.... his talent agency (or whatever it's called) seems to be growing too. Lots of fingers in Pies to me it ALL points to huge Saudi money.

[@thedadgolfer]

spot on about the Saudi money. They bought golf years ago. People who were paying attention realised it.

[@shawnmichajluk2044]

My guess - he is going to start a LIV KZbin League, signing Golf KZbinrs for a tour. Lots of money to get them involved.

[@TopblokeGolf]

@@shawnmichajluk2044 I think you’re on the money

[@shawnmichajluk2044]

@TopblokeGolf probably involve Korn Ferry tour members too. One complaint about previous KZbin tournaments is that the prize money wasn't worth it. Rick has wanted to do another KZbin tournament. Maybe this is his opportunity. We will find out tomorrow.

[@angelam6902]

The bad news is none of them will break 90 unless they play a par 3 muni. The good news is more people will watch it than watch LIV.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion on LIV, but it almost feels likes its being more forced to try and gain viewership.

KZbin golf has become oversaturated. Most videos have become epic productions an hour and a half long. Whatever Rick is doing, I feel certain that he put a lot of thought into it. Be first, be smarter, or cheat. If he is first to join with LIV and gets a sweet deal, more power to him. If he arranged a deal where he is the gateway for other KZbinrs to participate with LIV then that is smart.
