Sir Nick Faldo on LIV golf breakaway golfers

[Maxx]

Every other professional athlete ultimately has a goal to sign a huge contract for guaranteed money. The PGA has sold millions of tickets and made a boatload of money from the very golfers who if they missed a cut despite playing two days in a row earned absolutely nothing. I don't blame them one bit for chasing higher paychecks.

When has garcia said or done anything with class or dignity… or intelligence.

[Labgorilla]

Faldo going to liv for commentary next

[marksimpson]

Good points Sir Nick. Garcia with his ONE major seems to think he's worth quite a lot as do Poulter, Westwood and Bland with their ZERO majors!

[KyleS]

Yeah, they just whack a ball around…why not pay them minimum wage and let the PGA keep even more money.

[KevinKhan]

If there was no money in golf then yes you're whacking a ball around the course. Not when hundreds of millions are made by the PGA. There's a reason they (PGA) increased the purses after players were leaving. Those new rules were an admission they could have paid the players more.

He’ll probably join LIV as a commentator in a few weeks.

Nobody turns on the TV to see Jay Monahan

[gceez]

C’mon Sir Nick…you’re not “just golfers” you’re a product that is packaged in the form of a field used to negotiate sponsorship/TV money. It’s a business pure and simple. “Hey sponsors…we just got some guys hittin a little white ball around a course…would you like to air this on TV and Sponsor us for millions of dollars?” 🤣

[SiLoMixMaster]

The extra money is better going to the players and caddies pockets than Jay Monahans though let's be honest

[thelordofthestreams]

As long as we live in a capitalistic society; no one has the right to judge how another person thrives, all money is blood money!

[brianfergus]

“My goodness” is such a classy epithet 👍 Sir

[electrolytesplants]

Its their choice you dont like it than move along

[tivone]

In the end it’s basically an overpaid Retirement Tour🤷🏽‍♂️. Most of these Golfers could never win on the PGA Tour anymore. They have guaranteed money and no desire to even practice anymore. Just show up and play. I wish I was good enough🥶

[buzzidsnest]

“IF you’re living in America, the tours fantastic”. Ever thought the rest of the world has absolutely zero interest living in America?

[josephpowelliii]

Bottom line: Allow people to do as they please....within reason. People need to just mind their own business...and let LIV golfers do what they want. The PGA Tour doesn't rule the world....or golf. Let people make their own decisions!

[casey]

This guy is making more guaranteed money from the tour than most of the players.

[nathanedmunds]

Competition creates more jobs and the best outcomes.

[dcfunhouse]

talent commands a price. the pga took the talent for granted, and this is the market response to that.

[paulmurphy]

Steph Curry makes $50, 000, 000. per year. Wow, I think we're overpaid...we're just basketball players aren't we?
