The NLU boys have a point there tbf

Pretty poor. Interest factor for day one will have drawn plenty in.

How will that go once the newness factor goes? They will need to pay Google and Facebook to make themselves algorithm friendly, something both might be as reluctant on as traditional broadcasters are.

There is a bottomless pit if they choose to go that route, but ultimately if there aren’t eyes on it, it dies on the vine.
The OWGR decision on ranking points will be crucial for those that have jumped ship, they’ll cycle out of the top 50 within a couple of years if they aren’t getting benchmarked against the regular tour players

What about the USPGA?

Separate body. Think of it as the association of golf shop pros

World number 374 is so apt, moral high ground indeed

Did Graeme spunk all his money or what the fuck is he at.

I won’t be able to watch GMac “going to the events” in peace any more

All this sports washing only seems to highlight these countries all the more.
If the Saudis just shut the fuck up they could continue doing whatever they want, whenever they want, as they have done since they bought the US in the 1970s

Graeme McDowell is full of praise for “the execution level” in this new Saudi sportswashing event.

Quite the choice of words.

You’d feel sympathy for Newcastle players in a way they’ve no control over who owns them they’re employed to play these cunts chose to rake in the :moneybag: from a vile regime

It’s phenomenal money

Yes, of course it’s highlighting Saudi Arabia more. That’s one of the aims. Mohamed Bin Salman has a planet sized ego, just like Vladimir Putin. The main aim is flaunting impunity in the face of widespread dislike or opposition by powerless citizens, demonstrating to them that liberal democracy is impotent in the face of despotism.

That they will buy liberal democratic societies off piece by piece, compromise them, use social media to develop an army of western useful idiots whose brains have been shrivelled up to the size of peas by these moronic culture wars and who will constantly shout “hypocrisy” to silence criticism of the Saudis. The Saudis, like the Russians and the Chinese, aim to poison the informational landscape of those liberal democratic societies to the point where enough people in liberal democratic societies turn against liberal democracy itself.

These golfers are prostitutes in the true meaning of the word. Mick Wallace and Clare Daly etc. are prostitutes in the true meaning of the word. Newcastle United is an entity of prostitution in the true meaning of the word.
