At the moment, everybody is losing in the game as far as I can see, except for the players.

And I say that as an ex-player myself, and I don't want to be the bitter ex-player looking back at the guys making a whole lot of money now.

I get that, and I'd love to be in a situation that they're in.

But

These monies that they're playing for is based on a false economy that was created and a false value that was created by Liv coming on and paying ridiculous amounts of money.

And then the PGA Tour kind of matched it.

So we're interested to see if that kind of levels out.

The big loser in all of this is the public.

You're sitting at home watching your Sky Sports on a Sunday night.

You're not seeing the best players play together as often as you used to see them.

Um, uh, you're seeing a lot of top players missing big events that they used to play in the past.

Um, uh, you know, with the division between, between live and, and the PGA tour, you know, these, these, uh, top players are now, you know, Bryson and the Rams, uh, and the turtle Hatton's are not allowed to play on PGA tour events.

So you're losing out on that.

Um, and, and then you have a really condensed schedule as well too, where you have kind of not much happening, um, in America post, uh, post the middle of August.

So, uh, yeah,

At the end of the day, the reckoning will come with economics more than anything else.

I know Brian Rolop is very good at what he does and he speaks a really, really strong game.

And certainly some sponsors are putting in that money.

But ultimately, the market will determine.

Will the sponsors continue to pay the huge amounts that they're paying for?
