Interesting and I didn’t know about this change. Assume it’s because of the Saudis poaching.

Must be. I don’t understand how there could be $0 prize money for half the guys in any given field when these tournaments are making billions. I get you want to incentivize guys to perform, but there’s enough pressure with just keeping your your card that these guys aren’t gonna slack off.

It’s always been that way though and was an interesting part of the culture. Arnold Palmer was famous for flying his own plane to get between events.

I get the culture … but these billion dollar TV contracts are a new thing. If everyone else is getting rich, why shouldn’t the players?

It’s fine I suppose. Not like it changes my life in any way. The LIV format (shotgun start, 3 rounds, teams) isn’t compelling to me and I do wish they would unify in some way.

they're grossing in the billions each year from sponsorships / tv deals

Michael Kim is a great follow for anyone interested in behind the ropes life on tour. He goes into finances, sponsorships, minutia of what the tournament experience is like for a journeyman player.

Golf is the most egalitarian major sport. If you can do it, you can play and make great money. That's one of the things that always struck me about Happy Gilmore - it's basically realistic.

the issue is whether how much the ~100-125th best golfers in the world get compensated (and the tangential issue of how much they should get compensated), not whether the pro golf world is a meritocracy. i think everyone realize golf is very meritocratic.

NBA scrubs who play like 10 minutes a game at best make more than top golf guys who work their asses off every day.

is your strategy to wear your opponents down by lining up your fourth and fifth putts like it's the Masters and refusing to play in under 5 hours?

The average NBA career is 4.8 years whereas golfers can easily go for 10-20, and can teach afterwards or be a club somewhere nice.

Relatedly, What’s the median PGA card carrying time? I’m sure middling guys in the bottom half of the money list don’t keep their cards for so long. Sure some manage to be mediocre for 20 years and hang around I’m sure.
