PGA -- March 13, 2024

Locator: 46748PGA.

NYT.

PGA / LIV: the names we won't see at the Players. Wow!

  • Bryson DeChambeau: huge draw
  • Sergio Garcia: huge draw
  • Talor Gooch: always a big draw
  • Charles Howell III:
  • Dustin Johnson: a huge loss for the PGA
  • Brooks Koepka: another huge loss
  • Phil Mickelson: what can I say?
  • Kevin Na:
  • Louis Oosthuizen: another big draw
  • Ian Poulter: wow, another huge loss for the PGA
  • Jon Rahm:
  • Cameron Smith:
  • Henrik Stenson:
  • Bubba Watson:
  • Lee Westwood:

That's 15 A-list golfers and I probably missed a few. And those 15 could have easily been at the top of the leaderboard this Saturday.

It's not too much to argue that the only player of note for The Players on Saturday will be "Scottie." 

The PGA almanac will have to place an asterisk against the name of The Players champion this weekend.

The PGA is in a fight for its life. See this post from August 27, 2023.

Again, it's amazing the amount of time the Golf Channel is devoting to Tiger Woods in anticipation of the event to begin tomorrow. "They're" still hoping that Tiger Woods plays one more tournament. Not gonna happen. He's scheduled to play The Masters this year. We'll see.

Except of die-hard golf fans, The Players, this year, has become irrelevant and not worth watching, except perhaps late Sunday afternoon.
