Talk about East lake Fedex cup championship finals:
- Rory Finished 21 under to win his third fedex cup the first to do that
- Sheffler and IM tied second at 2o under. IM almost tied Rory on 18 had the opportunity there to eagle it but his second shot made that difficult for him when it landed in the deep rough off the green.
LIV/PGA NEWS:
So obviously a lot of big news this year with the PGA and LIV Golf
Commissioner Jay Monnahand spoke to the media at East lake in case you missed it. Go over some key notes about big changes coming to the PGA.
And listen this is good! Change is good and change needs to happen.
I am not sure if its purse sizes or the way the game is played or home many events they have but the PGA has pretty much been the same my entire life and probably longer.
So one positive to the LIV Tour is that its forcing the PGA to listen to its players and its Fans and make the changes that will improve the game, HOPEFULLY.
Before I go on to talk about what Jay said in his press release, here is the outline for the future schedule changes and compensation the PGA is implementing. And keep in mind a lot of this is echoing what LIV is attempting to do. So clearly the LIV tour was on to something.
So when asked if a player who has gone off to LIV looked at
this and says, this lo oks pretty good, would you lift the
suspension and welcome them back?
JAY MONAHAN: No.
Q. Why not?
JAY MONAHAN: They've joined the LIV Golf Series and
they've made that commitment. For most of them, they've
made multiyear commitments.
As I've been clear throughout, every player has a choice,
and I respect their choice, but they've made it. We've
made ours. We're going to continue to focus on the things
that we control and get stronger and stronger.
I think they understand that.
Q. A year ago you sat up here and were asked about
these competing leagues and you didn't sound too
worried. I'm wondering if you have any regrets that
you didn't take the threat more seriously? And if you
could go back in time, what would you do to try and
thwart their momentum?
JAY MONAHAN: I take everything seriously. I think
anybody that knows me knows that that's the case.
To me, if you listen to me talk then and you listen to me
talk every day since then, you focus on the things that you
control. When you've got an organization that has a history
that runs 54 years, and number one, again, competitively is
the best system to identify the best players in the world and
put them in a position to achieve at the highest level;
number two, because of that, provides a platform that
allows them to build their own respective businesses and
brands, and to be able to do the things independently that
they're able to do, that coupled with history, tradition,
impact -- life is all about purpose.
I think that's on clear display today. The fact that we day in
and day out come into a community like this, revitalize it,
are a partner to it, leave it better than we found it, there's
so much depth to what we do, and continuing to focus on
that, as the leader of this organization, as the leader of the
players that we have, that's where all of my focus has and
will always be.
There's competition everywhere. That's the nature of what
our players do out here. We're competing against other
leagues. We're competing for younger eyeballs. We're
competing to grow internationally. We're competing to
grow our sport relative to other sports. That's the nature of
what we do.
I think since the point that we were together last year and I
made those comments and I talked about it, we've gotten
better. And as I said earlier, I promise you when we're
here a year from now, we'll continue to get better and
stronger with the best players in the world behind us and
the greatest members.
