LIV and the PGA Trying to Merge

[white is right]

I don't know if this is a sign of strength from LIV but it looks like Lefty will be able to keep his money as he was happy but Norman is probably out as commissioner of the now absorbed tour...https://www.espn.com/golf/story/_/id/37805785/pga-tour-liv-golf-dp-world-tour-announce-merger

PS I read that Norman is officially out as he "wasn't in merge plans going forward". He probably received the resume Dear John letter of we thank you Greg for your work and wish you the best going forward...

The recent LIV event in Adelaide, Australia is apparently that tour's premier event, or at least the one most like the craziness at the Phoenix Open. Fox's sports network is now televising LIV tournaments as I found out the other day when channel surfing late at night.

It was a pretty impressive field at Adelaide, but the players play in teams and the on-screen leaderboard was a constant whirl of changes among both teams and individual players. Music was playing in the background and the scene was basically that of a big party. During the little bit I watched I missed Patrick Reed's ace at the noisiest of the party holes:
