He also questioned whether golf fans really care who wins the team competition.Malnati said:”I don’t know what they’re doing, but it seems like a very forced team model to me.
At the end of the day, when fans will care, which team won the tournament? I don’t know what LIV fans want or care about, but are there any fans who care who won it?”I mean, that seems so inventive to me.
I feel like we might as well create some of inventiveness? team golf something, FedEx Cup offseason somewhere. But what he really wants is a question I want to understand better.
Because I don’t think it’s done, fake, read the scores of random guys and call them a team. I don’t think this is it. I think he thinks more like the Ryder Cup, but I have no idea because I haven’t talked to him.
“Malnati Asks TGLMalnati was then asked his opinion on Woods and McIlroy’s new technical TGL, which he is also teams and captains.
He admitted that he knew few details about TGL other than the sale and promotion of team franchises, such as at LIV Golf.
TGL, McIlroy and Woods were scheduled to start in 2025, with the stadium roof in 2023. fell in late 2011.
Malnati said:“Is that what we’re going to do with this TGL thing? TGL, its teams are like the owners – the only reason I know that is because I saw the Atlanta team, Atlanta has a team and it’s like the same guy who owns the Falcons. is now on PGA TOUR Enterprises and it sounds really exciting, but I had no idea what TGL was.
So let’s go. It’s team golf. We’re going to hit that dome or whatever they do.”.
