Pretty shocking news but I think from a fans perspective its going to be great. I don't know the details but would only assume that we will see some incredibly deep fields playing some tournaments in some pretty awesome locations. Seeing PGA Tour pros play the the tour mostly in North America with some random WGC events was okay but hopefully seeing some more tour events all over the world will be really cool.
I think all of the Saudi talk is interesting. Everyone wants to blast the Tour and golf for selling out to the Saudis but the last time I checked the US economy has some pretty strong ties to SA. Canada does as well. Seems odd to me that people work the SA thing into it as much as they do. I know Monahan used it as a talking point only to go back on his word but he has willingly sacrificed his integrity.
