Preeway Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Love this! Not sure what if he has story ideas so far but would love to see him deep dive into the current status of PGAT/PIF and how it’s impacting the broader picture of the sport. All politics aside, how will any sort of merger benefit the sport regardless of how it may help/hurt the PGAT or LIV. Also, a story on why more people should be watching the LPGAT. ejgaudette, Rob Person, cksurfdude and 1 other 4 Quote Driver: Aerojet LS, Ventus Blue Shaft - 6S 4 Wood: Rogue ST Max 16.5, Tensei White Shaft - 7S Utility Iron: Fli Hi 3-iron, HAZARDOUS Smoke Black Shaft - S Irons: JPX 921 Tour 4-P, Project X Shafts - Stiff 125g Wedges: 52º, 56º, 60º Putter: Ai-One 7 T CH, 34" Preferred Ball: Z-Star Diamond Pushcart: Nitron Rangefinder: Tour V5 Shift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post fixyurdivot Posted June 11 Popular Post Share Posted June 11 Not a fan of Alan or this announcement. Writers making money by stirring up controversy within the sport, and using quotation marks from their unnamed sources, falls short of credible, worthy journalism.
