Is Kroenke rocking the boat trying to attack the foundations of English football?
What Bin Salman is doing to golf is an abomination. All the aura of Augusta and the history of the golf majors is being pissed on
How would you feel if Bin Salman announced a tennis tournament with a 1billion prize money during the month of Wimbledon.
He has no respect for the institutions of sport. HIs end game is political too, if you cant see it, yoour missing it
Is what is happening to golf really an abomination??, are you shedding tears for the PGA tour??
The same PGA tour which has effectively swallowed up the European tour
The same PGA tour which in the past ruled golf and the rules thereof together with the R&A, in all the controversy which has followed the deal with LIV, I have not heard of one statement from the R&A, it seems that the PGA has turned them into an irrelevance.
Golf is a global sport, yet outside of the Open Championship all of the biggest tournaments take place in the USA, should not one Major at least be moved around the world.
The Americans rule golf, no question - their corporations rule golf to be more precise, I would argue that they do not do it very well, they do it in a very autocratic manner, change might be good. In the same way I believe that the American owners taking over Football would be a disaster, yet it almost happened in the shape of the European league, there is nothing good that I can see about US business running sport.
What political end game do you speak of??
