On 6th June 2023 the PGAT announced a merger with the Saudi Arabia PIF - arguably the biggest U Turn ever witnessed in sport. On a Goal Own-Goal special, Roger and Grant asked the Captain to join them to share their reactions to this momentous news that will reshape the golf world forever.

All Hail Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets… -Miami lost this game in the first half. -Nikola Jokic (30-14-7, 58/42/84) -Jamal Murray (21-6-10, 45/39/93) -Aaron Gordon (14-7-3, 60/56/47) -Nuggets were trash from 3 and from the line until late… -Bam Adebayo (22-12-3) -Jimmy Butler (22-5-6, 41/37/81)   Been a pretty strong 18 months for Stan Kroenke, the owner of the Denver Nuggets…. -Rams Super Bowl in February of 2022 -Avalanche Stanley Cup in June of 2022 -Arsenal back into Champions League in May of 2023 -Nuggets NBA title in June of 2023 These are the Days of our LIVs… According to Greg Norman, LIV Golf isn’t going anywhere and that it will continue to be a stand-alone entity. Norman may be correct, but the money truck appears to have left. Best way to say it is that the PIF has realized that their goals are not being met and can not likely be met when viewed as an outlaw circuit.  So, they’re investing in the PGA Tour. LIV does NOT exist without about a $3 Billion investment.   TV ratings on CW have been underwhelming – doesn’t reflect the product – mostly the interest.  They don’t use Nielsen and they’ve stopped releasing numbers which ou need to know. What does LIV look like going forward?  Is it a fall series for huge money?  Is it a series of team events only? I’d watch a LIV vs PGAT “Cup” style event….”The Match”  

A wild week in the world of golf went out with a bang as Nick Taylor made a 72-foot eagle putt on the fourth playoff hole to become the first Canadian to win the national open since 1954. Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme discuss Taylor's win, the latest updates on the bombshell news last week that the PGA Tour, DP World Tour, and Public Investment Fund struck a deal to pool commercial interests, and preview the third major of the year - the US Open at Los Angeles Country Club. Matt Stoller, the author of "Goliath: The 100-Year War Between Monopoly Power and Democracy," joins Smylie and Charlie to discuss his antitrust concerns surrounding the proposed PGAT/DPWT/PIF deal.

What a 48 hours for Professional Golf 2 days ago I sat at this very desk ( yes the new stand-up set-up) and a thread came through the MLOG Discord announcing the partnership between PIF, DPWT and PGAT. Like many my initial reaction was disbelief and my second was to text Blakey from Golf Rules Questions to ask him if he now worked for the PGAT. Of course, it was late and he didn't respond until he got through his 700 messages the next morning. It has been mind-blowing watching this unfold and the discussion from all parties. Well mainly the PGAT and DPWT. LIV has been relatively quiet thus far.   There is so much speculation and posturing. For some emotions are running high on this topic, not least Rory but even those closer to the MLOG home. To unpack some of the dialogue I immediately jumped to Blakey to check in and then to one of my more viewed Twitter accounts @flushingitgolf. So Tom who is in charge of Flushing It Golf joins Blakey and Rossco to discuss some of the events of the last 48 hours and then some. I hope you enjoy it. Please go and follow Flushing It Golf.   Twitter Link - Flushing It Golf Twitter Insta Link - Flushing it Golf Insta

We talk about the new bombshell announcement regarding the PGA Tour, PIF and DP World Tour unifying under one entity. Professional golf will no longer look the same...

This week in golf sees the chat start with golf Twitter. It can be a space for good dialogue and toxic dialogue. When the discussion of Golf and the rise of LIV Golf is concerned. We discuss the often-discussed Twitter debate about OWGR and the fact that the LIV Golfers are still without a system to award OWGR points. We have a robust discussion and it's fair to say we both see things differently. We chat about all this week's golf hot takes which obviously include PGAT and LIV. We shout out Hannah Green on her win in the LPGA Tour and a shout out to David Micheluzzi on his T21 finish at his DPWT start last week in Korea.
