The people that do actively care about those issues won't be fooled. The ones who passively care will be easily distracted.
If they really wanted to diversify their interests why not build up grass roots programs and be competitive before trying to invite the world?

It’s weird because he looked pretty washed athletically the previous season but this year he came out looking like vintage Seattle Wagner

You’re not wrong. The whole statement is pretty dumb to begin with, yes he wants to win. Will he probably take the best deal, yes.

I do understand the benefit to golfers securing that set pay check. I mean there are people on tour who are just getting by outside of the top 50-60.
But on the flip side does the guaranteed income ruin the hunger to win and get the pay. I don't think it does but it could be argued it does.

I don''t ever go for that sports washing. It doesn't work and shines more light on the issues. I think it is more they are a individually wealthy nation that are looking to diversify their interests

Think Tyreek regrets leaving the Chiefs? I'd say probably not with the bag he got.
Granted, the Dolphins were looking good before Tua rattled his brain a few times, but still

True. The man has a Masters in money manipulation.

Ya that sure could be argued. Didn’t think about that. Guess we will never know.

Isn't that how most sports are though. Wins are personal goals and the financial benefit usually comes in your next contract. NHL has basically no money for star players for the playoffs but clearly winning the cup is meaningful.

Could be argued how the lack of depth from not having picks exasperated how badly the injuries impacted them. But they still got a ring!

It's a crap concept where everyone gets paid loads of money whether they win or lose.
Does that help?

It’s also a diversification strategy as oil seems to be on a clock.

The whole concept is broken from the outset. Their basic stance is that pro golf (PGA tour) is BORING, so they’ve come up with a format that fixes that. Really good way to alienate actual golf fans who’ve grown up with 72 hole stroke play tournaments as the accepted standard test in pro golf. Their (apparent) aim is to also attract non-fans, with their concerts & other gimmicks, but at the end of it this is still golf, if people don’t like it a tshirt cannon & some washed up music act isn’t going to change that.
Another factor is because this is a pure entertainment product, there’s no criteria for entry or qualifying process, no cut in tournaments, so there’s a vital element of sport missing from this. It’s a money making exercise for millionaires who had dump trucks full of money given to them up front, how is anyone supposed to care about that?

Why does the state of Saudi Arabia need to launder its own money?
Secondly to launder money you’d need to be able to maintain the cash once it’s clean. Spending millions to other parties isn’t money laundering it’s just spending money
