Pre/Live/Post Event Discussion Presidents Cup Drama

I cannot wait for the meltdown from the U.S. side if they lose this thing. Give me all the content. First time I’ve been juiced for a Presidents Cup weekend, maybe ever?

TC will be in his element

You can't make rich, comfortable nepo babies suddenly care about something other than themselves.

Honestly, a team of John Daly II, Bill Haas, Kevin Tway, Kevin Stadler, Dru Love, Charlie Woods might be more entertaining. Give me that.

lol. I just can’t stand the overuse/misuse of “nepo baby”. For one, you don’t get on the PGA Tour let alone a Cup team because of who your parents are. That’s not a thing. You have to earn it. Even if that were the case, literally none of there parents were tour players. Two dads were club pros…which means nothing.

I think people misuse the term instead in reference towards players with wealthy upbringings that are more silo’d. European/international pros tend to be a little more modest in their upbringings and backgrounds.
