I'm just saying it's totally changed the Saudis own Gulf period end of story it Stinks to high heaven because in the Lawsuit the countersuit that the PGA Tour threw on live Jay Monahan was quoted as saying in the Counter suit the live is using players Quote and the game of golf to sportswash The recent history of Saudi atrocities And today What Saudi atrocities we don't know you Tell me about these atrocities boof gone Okay money read about it as much as you Want there's a new board the PGA Tour Will say that they can they they're They're also have their non-profit Status they're they're still the Charitable organization there's also a Commercial entity now that the pif the Saudis are the exclusive investors in And they can also Be in charge of who else is allowed to Invest moving forward what does that Sound like somebody who owns something And so they're going to get together and Figure stuff out what does it look like The team aspect of the live tours Apparently still on the table I don't Know how that looks on the PGA tour The guys who said no to the live money And are now watching all the live guys Who took the money have a path to come Back and play with them with their fat Ass wallets in their back pockets you
