    It’s reported that Open champ Cam Smith is signing with LIV for $100 million.

    The fun side of this is that if they are allowed to play, I'll probably get drunk and make a 9/11 comment at one of them in Wilmington and get kicked out.

    Fair enough to me. Hard to argue the Tour has caused any of them “irreparable harm.”

    Isn't this is a win for the LIV guys, as one of their goals was to play less golf?

    Right! Less golf and more time with their families just like they wanted. Also apparently the winnings are counted against the upfront money. Mrs Perez can’t be thrilled to be mistaken.

    In all, a good day for LIV since they’re getting smith, but does this mean it’s official they are out until the trial next September? If so, very few will see the majors.

    Yeah not sure if LIV can appeal this ruling today.  But yeah these dudes that aren't past major winners won't be seeing many majors next year....going to start plummeting in the world rankings.  Unless they go play the Asian tour like Reed is apparently doing....but that's not less golf!

    Here's the video since the above one was deleted. Talk about passive-aggressive. I've said my favorite thing about LIV is that the whole thing reminds me of the wrestling wars of the 90's between WWF and WCW. But....we can't expect golfers to hit each other with chairs. So I guess walking through someone's line on the green could be the golf equivalent of that.

    Well, the lawsuits have arrived.

    Money corrupts everything.  An example of why players may not coast because no amount of money is enough for some people. Ha.
    I’m pro-LIV but I hate this lawsuit that Phil and others have filed. They should just put the PGA Tour behind them. And Players on the Tour seem to be taking the lawsuit personally…which I can understand. 
    What the fuck does pro-LIV mean? It’s like I’m saying pro rock and jock all star game

    To be fair, those rock and jock games were awesome

    Apparently Gooch and Swafford were sitting in a car outside the course the other day waiting for the court ruling.  That's hilarious....it turns out legal expert Greg Norman doesn't know a fucking thing.  Never realized what a clown Gooch is....the big bible beater loves that dirty Saudi money!  Although I'm sure he appreciates their views on gays.

    Played The Loop at Forest Dunes this weekend.   It was pretty cool to play a reversible 18.  I would recommend it.  Greens were fast as hell.   Ground was hard as a rock.  Great time!

    Ha.  Good for Will.  Hit two bad shots under pressure yet still came away with the W.

    Patrick Reed is now suing Brandel and GC.   What a bunch of greedy punks.

    And this is the lawyer he's using.  Just perfect for Reed.

    Have an interesting week of golf next week:

    Tues - Quail Creek Country Club - Naples
    Wed - Oakland Hills Country Club - Detroit
    Thurs - Great Oaks Country Club - Detroit
    Fri - Franklin Hills Country Club - Detroit

    I've played Quail a bunch of times and it's quite nice.  I'm super excited about Oakland Hills, being as historic as it is.  If anyone knows anything about Great Oaks or Franklin Hills, would love an opinion.
