It's also pretty tough to care about just $25 million, that's of course why no one cares about LIV. As for Cam Smith, sure, cool, throw him in there I guess. But arguably none of those guys actually move the needle at all, again, no one cares about LIV. But also, does anyone move the needle? Probably only Tiger. If he announced he'd be playing the next senior event it would outrate the PGA with ease.

The playoffs are kinda lame, but way more lame missing four superstars in a league with 9 - 12 stars. If you just went that way I wouldn't have responded, but you started by directly refuting my point that losing major stars has hurt the watchability.
As for Cam Smith - he was trending towards being the best player in golf at times, he's not some throw in to the superstars argument ("cool, throw him in there, I guess").
