IMO, the content creators on UA-cam are the ones who are helping to grow the game more than the pro tours at the moment. Channels such as yours, Grant's, Good Good, GM Golf, Pete's, Bryson's, and so many others are bringing people together and making golf fun and relatable. I just subbed to Ryan's channel as well. Great interview, as usual.
47:27 the team thing, yah. The Majesticks are doing a really good job in releasing their training camp behind the scenes stuff on UA-cam. So relatable content, banter and getting the young gun under the wings of the major winners and respected nearly senior, ”second place man” - men.
Ryan is a top guy. Wish him all the best. Like he says, if he was on TOUR now I would instantly be more interested in him and his results because of his UA-cam profile.
$900 for Sawgrass? 😳That's over $1300 Aussie dollars. It would cost me more to play 2 rounds of golf in the US than it costs to fly there 😵💫 Ryan is great bloke, and has a solid game. I wish him all the best for his career development.
Rick, golf is in a great shape! Competition is good! PGA has controlled the game of golf forever! Liv, whether it last or not, has shook the golf world UP! PGA players will receive alot more money now, thanks directly 2 LIV! P.S. there is a lot of golf courses that would eat u up right now! However, I do believe u r trending in the right direction?
As a golfer still trying to break through & trying to achieve a permanent tour card, Ryan should be thrilled with live golf for opening more potential positions in all leagues / competitions!
Being from EU I would like hear you take and to see you play the links course at the Evermore Grand Cypress. Its claimed to be a Jack Nicklaus St Andrews replica. Hope you enjoyed your time here. Cant wait to check this course out though looks great!
Rick - "I can't connect with the teams" then goes on to say the very next second, he supports Lewis Hamilton and feels the Mercedes team is English, cause for some reason he's stuck on teams focusing on nationality to give him something to root for, but doesn't realize Mercedes is German. This guy is just full of contradictions, i think he talks just to hear himself.
I find PGA tour to be diluted as I never know who is playing week to week and I don't know the up and comers. On LIV I know who is playing and they play every tournament (unless they're injured). And the whole round is done within 5 hours with action happening all the time. I prefer to watch LIV tbh.
HELL YES! He would join LIV 4 $5,000,000 or less! Love Ryan, I have kept up with him ever since he was a teenager DownUnder! He would b a great fit for an ALL downunder TEAM!
The star power "myth" is that just because big time players are there- it doesn't mean they will play well. If you are not in the last four groups, they dont show you on the broadcast. TW was the nly one you count on to play well every week. LIV getting RAhm was gigantic...
Refreshing work ethic and attitude from a guy who, let's be honest, probably could've gone the way of Paris Hilton and or any so-called "nepo baby" and just lived off his parents who were world class tennis players. He chose a harder life and hard struggle. Good on him.
Would they join LIV IF OFFERED? And that is the problem. LIV is like your local (gentleman's only) golf club 30 years ago. Membership by invitation only. The other Tours might be restrictive, but at least (in theory) anyone can get a place at an Open.
I don't get the whole "it's too fractured" and "players here players there" arguments. There were already a bunch of tours prior to Liv. Football/soccer is the most popular sport in the world and the best players aren't in a single league nor tournament. Closest thing is the Champions League, but even that one is bound to miss out on "the best", which is why the whole European Super League thing became a thing. Also unlike the best football leagues in the world, watching every single event of the PGA Tour-which was supposed to be the best-made absolutely no sense even to a devoted golf fanatic. Too many events and always had to look up if the field was going to be strong. The only sane thing to do was to only pay attention to the 4 majors.
Talking LIV, the current team element doesn't work for me. I think they should have more of a match-play format. So, if they stick to the 3 days, then day one and two are the individual stroke play days with no team element, then on the third day they have the teams split into pairs and complete against other team pairs in a Ryder Cup match play format, morning fourballs afternoon foursomes. The results then go into a points league across the season and each team plays each other at least once. That would peak my interest more than the current format.
Some of the holes at Mayakoba are 114yd with the pins on flat areas near the center of the greens. Obviously the course is set up to surrender 59s or lower. Just a joke.
Difficult to see your point about the LIV top leaderboards, but if you meant the PGA Tour top leaderboards where we rarely see any stars anymore, then it makes sense. But about LIV, take a look at the top 15 Sunday in Mayakoba and tell me if this isn't a real super star top board nothing really is. Just saying.
2 questions for Ryan: Playing the LIV Q event didn't make him loose any chances with the PGA sanctioned events? And second, I believe the PGA owns the image rights of its players, I believe they can't just generate content on their own.
Hey mate. No playing in the Liv Q event didn’t not cause any sanctions to play in future PGA sanctioned events or qualifying 2. The PGA Tour owns the image and rights of players at their events specifically. But not away from the events. Hopefully helps clear it up
I'm really sad about the state of golf. The thing that bothers me the most about it is that the pif are just throwing so much money at it that it is making the PGA tour have to try to up their purses. It's hurting sponsors of tournaments that have stood by these events for years and years. The Saudis don't care if they make a monetary return on their investment in golf. They are using our great game like another game to improve their world image. I just hate how things have turned out. It's just not all about money. Without the money these players are getting for joining liv, they wouldn't be there. It all just feels so hollow. Just knowing the huge fracture it puts in the game would've been enough to keep me from joining. I mean, for goodness sake, is the multiple millions of dollars these guys were earning from the PGA tour seriously not enough? I personally enjoy watching these young, hungry new players on the PGA and dp world tour that have had an opportunity due to the open spaces. Lastly, Adrian meronck gets voted for and awarded dp world tour player of the year and then turns around and abandons his tour when they need him the most? Come on. That's a pretty d*ck move if you ask me. There's no loyalty anymore anywhere it seems. I think these guys are just spoiled ah.
LIV guys would still play some Tour events if they would allow it. PGA got exposed for who they are. Was golf way better before LIV? Yes. But it’s soooooo hard to get on Tour, almost unfair. LIV on the other hand is taking the “club” style format similar to soccer and how they organize the league. Their idea is that they can start younger leagues, and find talent that way, and bring them up through the club. It’s going to be more of a world-wide league, like soccer. Also, guys like Rory and Jordan aren’t even playing every week on Tour, it’s fucking annoying. Their schedule is filled with senseless events. LIV you get the best guys every single event.
Precisely what LIV mean by growing the game, no wonder this channel hate LIV so much as it's doing everything the PGA/DPT should have been doing...@@txterbug
Given the opportunity I don’t believe you would turn down life changing money and stay loyal to a tour that has itself taken the money and got into bed with LIV , look after yourself and your family that’s how most people think and I don’t blame them one bit
Nobody stays loyal to the Korn Ferry Tour. And they shouldn't. It's a stepping stone to bigger and better things. Maybe it is because I live in America, but I don't see the DP World Tour as the pinnacle of professional golf.
I don’t get why people think golfers owe extreme loyalty to an organization when that’s what golfers do for their livelihood. People move to better situations in their careers all the time. No one loses a minute of sleep when a company like Apple gives an executive from Microsoft a huge pay increase with less work to do. I just don’t get why people get so butthurt when a golfer takes the same deal. LIV is offering some of these guys guaranteed generational wealth and more time with their families. I don’t blame any of them for putting their family and self ahead of a league and fans who will drop them the minute they start playing poorly or have a long term injury. From a fan’s perspective, sure, I’d like to see all the best players play in the same tournaments. But I don’t hold it against any of these players taking these LIV deals.
Evaluating the state of the Golf World only by evaluating the professional component I think is a very poor way of looking at the game we love. The reality is golf is much, much bigger than the professional level and the truth is golf has grown enormously since COVID. Most people that I talk to enjoy playing the game more than watching others play it. Don't get me wrong I enjoy watching the pro's but I also know it's a different world to us the majority, who play the game primarily because we love it regardless of how good or bad we are at it. The professional game is being put to the test and it's a test if change, the sport of cricket would be a great example if embracing change and it's time golf at that level did the same. When you say something like it's in a poor state, it really sounds like a dinosaur speaking. All change involves some stretching and pulling, some perturbation prior to the rebirth, that's where it is now. You can be a traditionalist and be left behind or realise it's time for change, it's happening anyway so you may as well embrace it instead of the constant negativity.
I try to watch a bit of PGA Tour now and again, but it bores the life out of me. When I try to watch the highlights it's like the Rory channel. I prefer to watch YT content.
I really could care less if I watch golf at all now. It just seems to have lost its appeal altogether. Having players spread out all over the place is really the biggest problem.
both tours are becoming diluted without doubt there's decent players on them however your looking at only a handful on each tour that will probably win each event. It's as Rick says it's becoming a sport that more about the money rather than the game. I dont have any issue with what who earns what and ive loved what Bryson's trying to do with UA-cam I can see more people watching online content rather than tournaments I only watch majors now im sure others will be the same.
This is their job, of course it's about the money. It's really easy for guys like Rick and Rory to sit there and talk about it being for the love of the game when they're already set for life or don't have a window. Rick would be singing a different tune if youtube started cutting his videos for playing badly.
If you don't see all of the best players in the Majors anymore...will it still be a "Major"? I would think that if the Majors don't want to follow OWGR's path and become as irrelevant, they would have to allow and invite LIV players...otherwise they run the risk of just loosing their aura and becoming just 4 more PGA Elevated Events
Sorry but I want to change the subject. Giveaways??? Freebies???? Are the most stressful, painful and annoying part of you guys You Tube videos. It should be exciting. And that's what you guys intended. But I've been had on yours, Mat F, James R, and Pete F. I watch you all and love you all to bits. But scamming which can't be controlled and you all say be careful. I was just on, wel I think telegram with one of the other guys. I was dubious when I was asked what I think was to much information. So I voiced my concerns and asked him a question from one of his You tube videos. The response. Do you want the prize or not. Just give me your details. I can give the prize to someone else. I declined. If it was which I very much doubt. Has put me in a mood I don't want to watch you guys anymore. I feel stressed, angry, and disillusioned. Surely there must be a solution????
Jeez, doesn't this bloke ever stop whinging about LIV?? Stop 'kin crying, if you don't like it don't watch! Watch him change the narrative when Rory joins next year...
Which bloke are you talking about? Ryan is keen to join if they’d let him and Rick is on the edge. I think you need to stop watching the content if you don’t like it as Liv, PGA and DP are part of the golf world which is what Ricks channel is all about.
Lads. Can we stop pretending LIV is about business. It's a sportswashing project and exactly as they predicted. It's starting to work. Eventually, people get used to it and the conversation changes but it's blood money pure and simple.
Where was your criticism of the dp tour when it had the Saudi open? Or the pga tour taking sponsorship money from Saudi gov owned companies……? Oh wait let me guess, you didn’t care or say shit about it. Stop virtue signaling
@@andrew_l1900 hey Andrew. Thanks for knowing my whole entire life, opinions and arguments well in advance of even having a conversation? I'm not a public figure mate, I don't have a book you can go read and get all my views on shit so don't act like you know me. PGA and DP shouldn't take Saudi money either. Two wrongs don't make a right. But there's a significant difference between a breakaway league trying to sportswash, or a man city sportswash project etc and hosting an event. Don't act like you can't tell the difference
@@andrew_l1900can’t really compare a tournament sponsored by a Saudi company to a tour which is being funded by the PIF with no intentions to actually make any money.
PGA looks to be exhibition golf at the moment. A bunch of tournaments nobody watches and a few times a year big ones that feature LIV golfers. LIV arguably has the best players in the world and more of the top tier players than PGA at this point.
Doug is right. PGA viewing audience is very old. They are trying to make viewing it better for the younger crowd. Nobody watch 4 days of all day golf. Shorten the days and air time. Make the event itself a cookout with fellow golfers drinking and good music. Sounds familiar?
Another down to earth honest hard working professional golfer. Well done Rick. I hope Ryan achieves his goals this year. Class podcast👏👏

What I cant figure out is why they keep playing so badly? Westwood has fallen off the map...
Just subscribed to Ryan's channel, great golfer.
Ryan seems like a really good dude, wish him the best.
Shows how good PGA tour guys are when a talent like Ryan doesn't have a tour card
It’s y the old farts are going to Liv golf they know the young talent that’s coming through college and other tours
Nick Dunlap for instance!
@@bradglawson4395 is that the Dunlap currently in 80th and last ?
Excellent commentaries. Interesting listing to all your views on today’s golf. Thanks
Rick in Orlando is awesome! So many great courses, play Championsgate if you get a chance.
He’s a good guy Ryan, enjoying seeing him on the various channels lately. His channel is a good one too.
Always excited to see Ryan on the channel and podcast. Didn't know he had a youtube channel. Subscribed now 🤙
Ryan is a top guy. Wish him all the best. Like he says, if he was on TOUR now I would instantly be more interested in him and his results because of his UA-cam profile.
Sir, huge fan, but could you possibly do a video on shafts? The ins and outs are so confusing. Appreciate you!
He's handled many a shaft in his time I'm sure he'll oblige
Rick, you should try to get out to Solina with the Bryan Bros
Rick, if you’re still here in OTown, let me take you to Grande Lakes, where the Father Son is played!
$900 for Sawgrass? 😳That's over $1300 Aussie dollars. It would cost me more to play 2 rounds of golf in the US than it costs to fly there 😵💫
Ryan is great bloke, and has a solid game. I wish him all the best for his career development.
Did Rick just finish his UPS shift?
😂
Rick, golf is in a great shape! Competition is good! PGA has controlled the game of golf forever! Liv, whether it last or not, has shook the golf world UP!

Anyone who is more concerned about a golfers pay check than the game needs to follow a different sport! 99% of golfers don’t need to worry about money
As a golfer still trying to break through & trying to achieve a permanent tour card, Ryan should be thrilled with live golf for opening more potential positions in all leagues / competitions!

I’d love to see Rick play in the AT&T ProAm at Pebble! Thoughts? Let’s make it happen.

LIV is really diluting my enthusiasm to watch pro golf. I totally agree.
Embrace it...look at it as something and different and new . Its really good to watch

its a joke, not real competitive golf, just goofy golf who get paid by murderers but i guess that is Ok in your eyes.@@ianrolfe2779
LIV golf lives rent free in Ricks big head!!
Pretty much watch the LPGA these days...hope they get stronger.
People talk about PGA or DP golfers not being loyal all day everyday. It gets old. How about a UA-cam golf tournament where half of it is on Peacock?
Chill out chris

Good choice on driver
