Let me be sure I understand.  You believe DJ, and other top players, have a duty to play the AT&T along with a few other events that you select.  And if he chooses to play elsewhere, he's selling out.  Do you then believe that the PGA Tour should decide which players are required to play which tournaments?  

I apologize to the folks who want to discuss the actual tournament, we've gotten pretty far off of that topic.  I won't talk about this any more here, but may contribute if a new thread is opened to discuss the obligations of top players.

Well said Dave 

[cnosil]

You and others are expressing what you believe are justifications for DJ selling out, but make no mistake and don’t deny what it is. He is selling out. 

I don’t need to justify anything. He works for himself and can do whatever he wants. He has no
allegiance to play any tournament.

Do you believe that American players that play other tours are also a sellout?

Speith, Cantlay and Casey final group on Sunday (threesomes assumed), 19 under wins it.

What the hell is happening to our PGA Tour threads?  What does where DJ and a host of other US Tour players choose to play around the world, which they and bunch of the European counterparts do all the time, have anything to do with ATT Pebble Beach?  Should we make the claim that those who go play CJ Cup Nine Bridges are selling out on McDonalds and Burger King? Maybe these guys just like mixing it up a bit and playing different courses and environs.

Let's please move the discussion back to the subject tournament .

Well said. Seems like we 've gotten off track twice in a row. In these treads I like to read about who's up or down on the leaderboard AND NOT where they play or why aren't the announcers talking about how much $$ they made.

The weekend will tell the real story, but it’s nice to see him back in the mix

Always seemed to be a good dude, so yes, it is great to see him turning it around as of late.

[Rickp]

I hope they do Drone TV shots this weekend.
Would have liked to have seen Drones on Spyglass as what limited shots I’ve seen of the course it looks really tough!

No kidding! That 4th green looks like it's about 3 feet wide. Can't imagine trying to get that GIR haha

[PMookie]

Spyglass Hill’s greens on a simulator were ridiculous. If they’re anything like what I saw there, I can’t imagine them in real life!

[Rickp]

I know I’m off track a bit but what’s going on with Stuart Appleby? I didn’t recognize him. I thought it was Neil Young on Golf Channel.

Last week at this point it was Spieth is back but after last Sunday I feel like everyone is hesitant to call it a comeback.

Are you really comparing current day Saudi Arabia to the Soviet Union.......

ive been to Saudi several times and while the United States relationship was rocky at times it’s currently not so I wouldn’t go comparing playing a tournament on Stalin’s country to present day Saudi.....all I’m gonna say on this subject

Yea I think the “issue” was he was playing specifically there for some reason and that’s why he brought up that comparison. Regardless can’t wait to watch this 3rd round!

Rick, I posted my picture of Appleby before I knew you had a post. I had long hair too, back in the mid 70's. Maybe it's coming back in style.....
