"Tired of being gaslit by Westy and the lads about why LIV has been treated differently. Agree or not the why is very clear. 90.91% of current LIV members entered the league by invitation. 2.44% of the Phoenix Open field (single event $0 in guaranteed earnings) were invited"

"@busted_bunny it's an invitation but you're guaranteed an invitation if you meet a certain standard. Largely agree re purpose but LIV gets to decide who can earn points in no-cut events. Should better players suffer for not having been invited No. There's no perfect way to rank players"

"@RoadPainter @david_verity all true but even in the UK cricket is bigger than golf in terms of audience size.

"@CanMNTonly it *cannot* because of LIV's own structure and processes. Absurd example but if Bryson went YouTube-only he'd still be a top-X player in the world but it would be impossible to rank him. LIV has made it very hard to rank players so compromise was required"

"@OLDMDM It's an invite to every event so the number is in effect the same. I didn't include Kim because although he was invited initially he lost that and had to earn it back. But if comparing same metrics: 100% of PGA Tour card holders earned their cards per demands set by Tour"

"Comes across very well. Strikes me that the three clubs who find themselves battling relegation when they shouldn't be all dispensed with managers when they shouldn't have. Oops.

"Meh first day but 9/2 treble wins. 11/4 double was suddenly looking good for a 5-5 sweep but Day 3-putt from 30ft puts him behind again with only a couple to play. Pebble Beach R1 preview https://t.co/4uT7H8xvPK Pebble Beach R1 preview https://t.co/4uT7H8xvPK"

"Same applies to anyone including those not part of LIV Golf. The line of succession looked like it would be a problem but through McGinley Bjorn and Donald we know what success looks like and it's not about where or even who it's about how you go about maximising chances"

"Six-under very disappointing in the end. Probably going to be 8th or so after R1 but six behind with [--] to play and no cushion on the best of those from tougher course (Vincent Akesson Arnaus all dangerous if Follett-Smith stalls). Would take a place with how that round ended. Jarvis teeing off [--] back in a reduced 54-hole event was about the worst possible scenario so [---] through [--] is fantastic. However the next three holes are the hard bit of an easy course. Be pretty pleased if he comes through them unscathed then maybe gets to [--] or [--]. Jarvis teeing off [--] back in a reduced 54-hole event"
