    Admittedly might be the height of hypocrisy but while I enjoy wearing shorts and blaring my How Long by Ace through my speaker as I make it through 18, that's not what I want to see as the professionals play for millions. What little I've seen of LIV golf is farcical. Its SAE golf with Eddie Money on stage. That's not serious golf IMHO.

    Time to retire the Match, the Showdown and the rest of these prime-time exhibitions. But if they must proceed (and they will), go to Hawaii where the guys are still in daylight. The visuals aren't good under the lights and the play isn't either.

    The best way to do them would be day-after broadcasts with editing (don't need to see guys driving golf carts), but that's not happening anymore with live betting.

    There is no room to put private lots around the golf course and the covenants inside the gates of the TPC Sawgrass prohibit that. And all of the retails business outside the gate zealously have people towed if they think they're parking there to walk to the tournament. They need a large satellite lot and a shuttle but no one's stepping up.
