Clearly, this was not the case before, a lot has changed. Earlier, young professionals had to pay their way through the journey which resulted to be a financial burden on these young talents.

Garcia was quick to answer this ‘great’ question. He said, “I think this is a great path. I was fortunate because I had a really good amateur career. I had a couple of decent contracts when I came out. But still, you have to perform every single week, and if you don’t, look what happened to Justin Rose.”

The pro golfer continued, “To be able to come out here with good talent and show what they can really do without having to be super intense if I don’t make the cut this week. I think it’s huge. LIV Golf has given us that chance, and super proud that we have one of them on our team and already a winner. It’s amazing.”

Young talents being given an opportunity to express and sharpen their talent is definitely a big deal. However, Garcia’s comments will have a fair set of comebacks from the other camp of the golf world.

The LIV Golf vs PGA Tour controversy is surely a long one and is not going to end anytime soon.

Sergio and the green: nowhere close to one another anymore?

A short while ago, the PGA Tour posted a video of Garcia where he was seen missing the green. In the video, Sergio tried hitting the ball to the green, although, his attempts failed and he missed. The ball instead went straight into the grandstand.

The grandstands are put in place in order to provide a temporary immovable obstruction and thus grant players free relief. However, this grandstand did not prove to be a relief to Garcia. His miss was noticed and pointed out by his former ally and now opposition, The PGA Tour.

The tour posted the foreseen video and wrote, “Sergio Garcia comes nowhere close to hitting the green, and instead flies his ball straight into the grandstand.”

LIV Golf was not too late to respond to this remark of the Tour. LIV Golf’s Twitter handle 

replied, “The grandstand came close to hitting the green.” Fans were also not behind in responding to this Cold War.
