Welcome back to the Dirt Show. You may see a little change of background on Martha's

0:07.0

Vineyard now for a few days and we'll be broadcasting from there. Today I'm going to talk

0:13.6

about a subject I know nothing about golf. What do I know about golf? I remember meeting

0:20.6

a great lawyer friend of mine who hated golf, but he had to play it because the clients

0:27.3

wanted to play, so we hated every minute of playing it. He said to me, Alan, your tombstone,

0:32.3

let's throw you great cases and say, all this without playing golf. When I was a kid,

1:43.7

some time. So I'm looking forward to seeing him play. But he turned down, reported half a billion

1:50.0

dollars to go to Saudi Arabia. But a lot of the golfers have accepted LIV's offer and have made

1:58.1

fortunes and fortunes of money much more than they were making in the PGA. And so the question is

2:06.5

2:15.9

over by the money from Saudi Arabia, let's start up remembering a little bit about the PGA,
