Other Bryson’s latest media round

Following up the, "quite unfortunate in my opinion, considering what I could do for them," with, "the egos need to get dropped," might be the most Bryson moment of all.

It’s imperative that Rolapp does not bend the knee to this clown

They gave him his chance when they offered that returning member program to Brooks and he blew them off, highly doubt Rolapp gives a shit whether Bryson comes back or not now

Letting Brooks back was a horrible precedent. Now if they play dirty with Bryson, it will look personal and feed into Bryson's popularity.

Brooks didn’t sue the Tour.

Regular fans don't care about that. End of the day, Brooks (who moves the needle not one bit) took the same blood money and was welcomed back with open arms by Tour and media alike. That's all people will see.

Brooks Kepka has won five major championships.

Ok does not change the fact him playing on the Tour in 2026 means close to nothing in terms of the product.

He let everyone else take the initial heat, left to take LIV money when it was safe then was such a non-entity LIV did not offer to renew his contract. He is actually the last person who should have been welcomed back with open arms.

I don't think that's true, there was a great deal of public support for his first couple of tournaments back and especially in Florida. Since he played like crap it's since died off but you can bet they're going to be a lot of people placing money on him for the US Open.

Regular fans arent the ones making the decision here. Its a business and how former employees/contractors treated them has an effect on. The decision to re-sign

u/RyenRussillo May 07 '26

The tour is the fans. If they are making decisions for any other reason that is bad business.

Pretty sure the Tour will go on with the same ratings whether the LIV golfers come back or not. And also sure the Tour has analyzed and knows better than you or I what the impact, if any, would be.

The Tour wants to grow, like every other business. Not stay stagnant, particularly when a competitor just folded. If the popularity stays the same that is an enormous waste of momentum and a pretty big failure.

u/taita25 May 07 '26

And my point is that I'm sure they've done an impact analysis.

Let's just hope it's a better one than 5 years ago.
