The PGA/LIV merger is a total victory for Saudi Arabia

The general reaction is that this is a win for the Saudis. What's a reaction from the players? You've got the LIV players. Taylor Gooch is on there tweeting a picture of his feet at a beach. Phil is dancing. This is a victory for them. They've wanted this all along.

The PIF successfully integrated with the PGA Tour, achieving significant influence over the sport's future.

Jay Monahan and Rory McIlroy are the biggest losers of the LIV/PGA merger

The biggest losers in this, Jay Monahan number one, probably Rory McIlroy number two. Not because Rory's a bad guy, just because he was the most vocal. And Brandel Chamblee, because he really dug his feet in on the take. It's one of the saddest days in the history of professional golf.

McIlroy later expressed feeling like a sacrificial lamb, and Monahan's credibility was severely damaged among players.

Patrick Cantlay will win his first major this week at the PGA Championship

The guy who I really liked this week who would be a bit of a snoozer champion is Patrick Cantlay. Oh, I feel like this, yeah, I know you guys didn't want to hear that, but stole Tiger's Caddy and I feel like he's gonna win his first major this week.

Cantlay did not win the 2023 PGA Championship; Brooks Koepka won.

Charlie Woods will eventually play as a professional golfer

I'll say yes. I think he will. He will be a pro. You know, being a pro in golf is not that difficult... But the spirit of the question obviously being Will he? Yeah, I think he'll make a run. I mean, all signs point to him being definitely like a division one level player and he'll get a chance.

Charlie Woods is still a teenager and currently playing high school and junior level golf.
