    I wouldn’t call it greed. We all work for money. The world is motivated by money. These golfers are underpaid compared to other major professional sports. Aaron Rogers signed for 3 years $150 million. I don’t see people up in arms calling him greedy. If someone is willing to pay DJ $150 million than that is what he is worth.

    Paulina had been calling and texting me non stop. It was only a matter of time before I caved. I’m glad he is getting her out of here
    Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him

    He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right

    They don't put Championship rings on smooth hands

    I get it. Some of y'all like Dustin.. I liked seeing him win the Masters. It was a great moment, now think if he doesn't play in it again. It's not like he's hurting for cash.. at what point does it not become about the money.

    Do you think the majors are going to deny entry to the guys who play in those tournaments? Seems to me that would have needed to been made clear by now. Has the masters ever denied a past champion from playing? I know Cabrera is in prison but have they outright said he can no longer tee it up? Part of me sees DJ playing about 5 more years and then riding off into the sunset. Since winning the masters he honestly seems content. He may have checked all the boxes he strives for.I don’t see him grinding on the Champions tour once he turns 50. He may just take his pile of cash and go enjoy his boats.

    Yeah, I don't see him on the Champion's tour either..

    I think Augusta will do what it wants, nothing else is certain. I think they've came out in support at least of the PGA. The R and A shot down Norman to play.. which would have been just a spectacle. They're open, just like ours, so I'm not sure how either will act. I don't think any of us regular people do. Even the Ryder Cup, you've got to be a member of the PGA.

    Look, it's not like I loathe Dustin, or if my opinion matters to anyone. To me, I think the entire LIV golf is a shit show, along with Norman. But he did receive 125 million.. I guess we'll all find out soon.

    The Masters will do what they want to. The USGA, the PGA, and the RNA won't say doodley squat.

    I think the PGA drew a line, I believe we will see how it'll play out before long. They can have Sergio though, keep that moody little fucker out.

    LIV just ain't in the middle east or Europe, they're going to play stateside

    Seems odd ESPN is picking up PGA headlines and the golf channel is running anything but LIV news.

    The first mistake DJ made on tour wasn’t on 18 at Whistling Straits.

    Phil will be known as the Pete Rose of golf. He’s in over his head.
