I have no idea about golf. I really should because besides baseball, golf is Japan's biggest passion. Just about every single businessman is obsessed with the game and is constantly talking about it. Yet I have no interest, so everything they tell me goes in one ear and out the other.
So there is an upstart league looking to take over and this was creating the drama, the PGA initially fought against it but then decided to skip the fight and just buy them? Interesting. I'll have to go read more about it.
Probably because it is such an exclusive thing there, it is "bragging rights"
Yep - the PGA fought against it in pretty terrible ways. Anyone would think the startup league was against covid vaccines... :D
