Those losers that i posted from the last PGAT, are guaranteed $550,000 at the end of year...without making a cut. Not bad for the plebs.

 

And then they lose their card.  You're really reaching now but good try.

I'm all for relaxed dress codes - hoodies, shorts etc but he looks like a scruff just wearing a T-shirt. Curious if he wears something else during the competition days. There are so many amazing fashionable polo's out there and he only brings a few white tshirts that ride up on the follow through? Come on man!

Norman wouldn’t sign AK blindly without looking at his game. Or would he 🤔

 

Norman would streak across the 18th green if he thought it would bring eyes rather than repulse people.

What? If it happened on the PGA Tour it would be a real story of someone good enough to earn his way back - it doesn’t have stories “like this”. 

 

Wow. Took the words right out of my mouth.

How come that didn’t happen in the last 11 years?

Come on man, it’s a practice round. 🙄

I get the feeling he will wear that drip during tournament rounds though 🙂

I dont like LIV and I think AK is a side show but man I just cant get on board with the outfit hate. Who really gives a hoot. 99.9% of the golfing world plays in clothes like that every day. Our club has a strict must-tuck/hats forward rules so when I see casual golfers enjoying themselves, I'm jealous.

Also in AK's bag - a giant pile of money

This thread alone will be 50 pages before he even tees off.

 

Looks like you might be pretty close...

They tried to get him.  We’ll have to wait to learn the details assuming there are ND’s to navigate. Subpar cant get him on fast enough!

The good news is that in 24 hours we will know how this went. 

 

Just curious, what do people think is success for him tomorrow? 75? Sub-70?

I think a Top 10 would be considered a success 👍🏼

Maybe Subpar will not get the scoop, after all Full Swing Season 2 needs some drama!

If AK finished Top 10 after round 1 it should be considered one of the athletic upsets of the century.

[jsixman]

I'll tell you this for free, I haven't watched more than 5 minutes of LIV, but I'll be watching this weekend if it's on youtube or wherever it's broadcast.  Dude was my idol when he played. LOL.  Started choking up on every club b/c of him.

Considering half of the field is mostly filler, I'd think anything less than middle of the pack to be a disappointment.

 

I also don't think "score" is relevant. It's where he finishes compared to everyone else. They could set this course up to where I could shoot 10 under.

I haven't watched more than 2 minutes of liv golf. Don't know what channel it's on and what time it starts. From my understanding this tournament will start at like 3 in the morning. (yeah, no thanks)

 

But I will 100% be watching the highlights on youtube once they're posted. And even the people that seem to be upset about this return will 100% look up his scores at some point this weekend even though they claim not to care.

He didn't age well. Guy is 38 going on 58. Oh well, no pictures on the scorecard. 

 

Say what you want about the whole thing but this thread is already 17 pages long and he hasn't even teed off. I know I'll be watching, it's free to watch and there's no commercials. I'm pulling for the guy, I hope he plays great.

I want to look up his scores, but I’ll probably forget that it’s even happening and probably forget until I check this website sometime mid-week.

Weekend rounds are usually aired on the cw channel at noon regardless of when they take place! 
 

Friday round can be streamed on the CW app too. Not sure where to exactly watch the live coverage at 3.

No doubt a day 1 score is no barometer of success

I truly would like to be open minded about this. But it’s impossible to comprehend..  I dress better than that to sleep. And it’s not a fear of others thing. It’s a self respect thing. I couldn’t hit a ball dressed in garbage baggy sized clothes. There’s no way. I supposed it comes from my grandpas raising me. Military man -   A straight gig line was a thing in our house.  You were to “ look like somebody “ if you left the house.
 

 I think dressing this way ( unkept )   is a privilege of the rich.   And a protest of the rebellious , or the best choice of the poor.  I am neither. I’m just in the middle “ trying to look like somebody “. Which in my opinion means self respect/care.  
 

I hope you take that as simply an honest opinion.  Not as an attack. I just don’t get it.  Might get close to that undressed on the beach.  But hitting balls ?  Can’t imagine it. And I truly would like to understand why anybody would want to? ( that’s a question).

Is fine to warm up/workout in gym garb. But I’d agree on a crisp look for a pro playing in a pro event 👍

They will show it during prime hours in the US as a re-run.

wonder how much they will show of him in the actual coverage, might be best to just catch all his highlights.

I be the ratio of views on the AK highlight package vs the views on the full round is 20-1

[rukahs]

Wow, he used to have 2 nostrils. Now he has 1 and a quarter.
