Well they have bought US President after US President so why not the PGA. I find it ironic that Blinken was meeting with the Saudis just as the media outcry over this occurred.

The interview with the head of the pga recently talking about how no player ever to apologize for playing for the pga is brutal in light of this deal.

The head of a sports league is a hypocrite. I am shocked. Not too bright of him of course to say that while he was negotiating a deal. The smart ones are the golfers who took the money for playing less.

Am I the only one who dislikes this whole USA-vs-everyone-else format?

It’s not everyone else. Just Europe. The Presidents Cup is the USA versus everyone. Except Europe.  Used to be USA versus England back in the day.
