Creator Tour: 10 "tournament" Rounds of 18 before 10 Events. Top 5 scores count for the Creator Major that rotates through the different Majors (US Open, Masters, The Open, PGA Championship). Just a thought
Agree 100%!!! Who's making the $$$ and running away with it? Where does it leave the Creators (other than a brilliant get-to-gether)? The Creators ARE the draw!!! The Creators ARE the PROMOTION!!!
Was pace of play because every player was trying to play and also film and talk through shots for the camera and also with a caddie? Shotgun start maybe help?
after hearing that is was basically a 9 hole shoot out..... like WTF??? my thoughts are if the PGA is going to do this again, make it a 3 day event. Have 36 of the top male yt golfers, and 36 of the top women golfers. do 2, 18 hole stroke play rounds, then cut to the top 4 or 8 male and female golfers and do a 18 hole stroke play, playoff. have all of the golfer's be mic'd up, let them record their rounds. and pay out the golfer's who make the cut for the playoffs
The PGA tried to capture the UA-cam golf viewers and drag them to the old fashioned way of watching golf. Goog Good did a great job with their event 2 round event that got eyes on those striving to get into pro golf. More UA-cam less legacy main stream media golf is what is needed.
Four person playoff or one hole sudden death cheapened ending. Low score for 9 holes should have been the format. Next season suggestion: Hold 5-6 18 hole creator events. Points per event. Top 15 point leaders get in FedEx final. Go 18 holes and low score gets the DUB. Players must play 3 events to qualify min. Allows more creators to try and qualify.
If its me I they need to run a pebble beach style event where a pro and a UA-cam golfer pair up for a serious event. This would get viewers interested in the pga players more. Then UA-camrs can find their own sponsor and put on a mini tour. Because UA-camrs don't need the PGA to get views it's the other way round.
My take as a 67 year old is PGA ruined golf coverage for me years ago . I watch UA-cam golf daily because of the pace, fun, unpretentious presentation, they need you more than you need them.
49 and totally agree. The Blackstone ad breaks just gave me that sinking feeling all over again. That said, loved to see the PGA tour treatment for creators.
I’d love to hear how much they were paying ……Pete? Tap tap.. this thing on? Also. The best part of the whole thing was seeing the individual creators vids. Again. Watching the pga coverage wasn’t….. quite doin it for me.
For me the appeal of watching a non professional on UA-cam is that they are relatable. As soon as they are viewed as a "creator" or lumpes together in this type of event that is super cheesy and cringy
Tbh. I found the whole thing to be awkward and pretty forced. . The whole reason I watch YT golf is because of the things that make it so diff from all day pga advertising with some golf sprinkled in.
These creator classic shows are boring and they get away from why people watch these. I would rather watch someone like bobby fairways day long who is entertaining and funny over a bunch of decent golfers but not all that great in grand scheme of things and try to make it entertaining as they shoot around par.

Would have been nice to see some smaller UA-camrs like taco golf James Wiltshire Brandon Robinson Thompson
Unfortunately those commercials pay for the event so we have to put up with them!
I just waited until it was over then watched and skipped the commercials and the shots by people I didn't care to watch.
Just fast forward through the grill section
More global participation....think Peter Finch was the only non-American?

Bob does Creator classic 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂, can you imagine it

Question: Creator Classic 8 holes of fun v Scottie Scheffler with a 4 shot start shooting a safe par round on a lazy Sunday afternoon?
Why would you criticize the Blackstone adverts? The Classic doesn't happen without the adverts
Using the PGA, or having the PGA use the creators, was the big mistake. The PGA is the enemy of good content.
