Next!!! LIV GOLF And my opinionated opinion! Yass, Baby!

So, the timing is good because I’ve been reading about them over the last few months and I watched the Golf Documentary on Netflix “ Full Swing” ( I’m telling you, I Watch everything!) And seeing how the PGA players feel about LIV just solidified my own feelings which land strongly on the NOPE side of the fence.

First, most of what the PGA players are feeling has to do with history and tradition and amazingly, the disgust over players being bought to “ Trade sides.” I get that but I’m also pissed that this is Saudi Backed. The same country that was responsible for 9/11. How are we just welcoming them here? The same country known for its horrific treatment of women and girls. How do we turn a blind eye to that? Or how they murdered a journalist from American by DISMEMBERING HIM WHILE HE WAS ALIVE. That’s a NOPE from me. Here’s something that says it better than me from The New York Times:

One of LIV Golf’s biggest signings, Mickelson, provoked outrage in February when he praised the series as a “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity” even as he called Saudi Arabia’s record on human rights “horrible” and used an expletive to describe the country’s leaders as “scary.” The project’s main architect, the former player Greg Norman, made things worse a few weeks later when he dismissed Saudi Arabia’s murder and dismemberment of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi by saying, “Look, we’ve all made mistakes.”

So there ya go. I actually can feel strongly about things that seem weird but it’s the morality, or lack of it, that gets me riled up. You know me, I’m the “right the wrongs” person 😉

Nothing personal, just my 2 cents. 

Tomorrow is the 3rd Anniversary of my dad passing. I need to talk to him so badly about this situation with my kids. I miss him immensely. 

Luv,

Me
