Am I the only person who when I hear or see the name Erik Van Rooyen thinks he should be out slaying vampires or something? Perhaps it's just me, just curious is all since no one's ever addressed this to my knowledge.

Good stuff boys 🙌🏼

Fab stuff, thanks Ricardo & gang!! Who the crap wears white Delco "tennis shoes" to wet golf course??!!

I'm mixed on some of the big events happening in clusters throughout the season. It's one of those things that I'm curious what the census is among the pro golfers. Over the course of the golf season we have 4 majors, 8 signatures and approximately 8 relatively big events that aren't signatures. So naturally there is going to be some bunched up, bunches of 4 is a lot. That's essentially a month away from your families for some of these guys and suddenly something in the realm of a LIV tour seems very practical in an all encompassing sense. At the same time there's portions of time that are sort of the off season for golfers throughout the year depending on rank and what not. Those are the times to practice and hone a good portion of your game. Beyond that it's time to play some tournaments. Of course it's nice to get some time off in between tournaments and try to change and tweak things. before a big event and what not, but I don't mind the clusters as much from that perspective. From a fan standpoint the clusters are kind of nice, assuming that it doesn't partially break up the fields in the events as a result of a portion of the players taking events off that they normally wouldn't due to the cluster of events. Obviously ideally the pga or whoever is in charge should try to come to whatever agreements with sponsors/events (obviously not majors) and potentially move them since it should be advantageous to those events as well if they aren't sandwiched in between big events causing lessor ranked fields to play in them. I'm sure that's easier said than done since it probably entails a wide array of things.

Anytime youse wanna play Philly Cricket, lmk

Would be hilarious if the PGA went out of their way to invite a bunch of the 54s except for Gooch.

This whole pregnancy thing is this brand new theme in sports that I don't ever remember existing in the past. In the NBA just last night one of the most important players in arguably the most pivotal game for the franchise on the T-wolves missed a playoff game because his wife had a baby... as random fate would have it they won, but he was arguably the most pivotal piece in the most pivotal game of the T-wolves season... there's a good chance that the entire franchise and their season was dependent on that game (we're talking millions if not billions of dollars on the line). WTF? Scottie missing a major isn't even in the ballpark to that scenario because at the end of the day it's mostly on him alone. But a player putting an entire franchise on the line to attend the birth of his child. WTF is going on?

Of course a franchise isn't going to publicly condemn such a thing, but I'm sure it's condemn-able in secret as it should be.. You sign a player for a multi-million dollar contract and he knocks his wife up so she's due in the midst of the playoff season and then during the playoffs the player leaves in one of the most important games of the season that effects his team and entire franchise. You've gotta be kidding me. And I come from the perspective that ones family comes before a game/profession.... but!

It is his right. He is still human and is owed that right to be with his family regardless of the implications on his professional team.

⁠@@dinglbarry1275he didn’t sign a contract that he’d avoid getting his wife pregnant during certain times of the year, nor did he sign a contract to miss the birth of his child. This is just a part of life, and it is what it is.

I really don’t see how they think they have a leg to stand on. They joined LIV for a hell of a lot of money, knowing they would get no world ranking points and couldn’t get in to majors. Now they want their cake and eat it. Ridiculous behaviour.

The thing is, there are still ways for LIV players to get in, if you aren't Rahm, Brooks, or Bryson, and aren't exempt already. Joaquin Niemann went and won the Australian Open. Gooch just didn't want to do the work. He's too lazy to go to any other events outside LIV and play, as far as I know, even though he would arguably smash every player in some of these smaller events. He wants them to just hand him an invitation. And they're not gonna do that, since Gooch only won one tournament on the PGA. He thinks he's a Rahm or a DJ...and he's not.
