Bubba had a significant knee injury and was out for nearly a year
Find it hard to believe that the LIV money changed all that much for Westwood as he should have been a very wealthy guy already
The amount of money they earn off the course is massive

Bubba had a really good reason to join LIV (hint: it wasn't the money). He and his wife prayed on it and God told them it was the right choice.
Dude, Scottie is a bible basher

So? What’s the relevance to what I said? Scheffler’s faith doesn’t make Bubba’s rationalization any less hypocritical (or less funny).

I don't think the fact it's a golfer has anything to do with it. "I praise the lord for my god-given talents (that I have spent thousands of hours practicing to acquire)" is a funny take regardless of the sport.

Even you and Pickleball???
For those of us who don't have a faith it does seem a little weird. When Scheffler talks about his 'buddies' reminding him that it didn't matter if he won or lost because "his victory was secure on the cross" is just something I don't get.
Also, when you refer to 'buddies' it's normally those you meet for 6 pints in a pub, not the ones you sit around reminding each other how strong your faith is.

I watched the McIlroy and Aberg pairing last night. One of them had it on a piece of string and -5 was the worst they could've scored. The other hacked it around, scrambled superbly and somehow got it to -4, easily the best they could've achieved.
If Mrs Scheffler had dropped early, Aberg would've won the Masters by 3 shots in his first ever Major. His swing is to die for, his pace of play admirable, his on course persona a breath of fresh air. Hard to see how he doesn't win a strong of Majors in the next few years.

Totally understandable. There's some real dross in the Masters field, like Freddie Couples for example. Just a shame that two of the LIV boys couldn't even beat the 64 year old with a chronic back problem.
Spieth, Hovland & Thomas were beaten by a guy who plays once a year

I mean, look, if anything is a god-given talent, it is my Pickleball ability.
I don't mean to turn up having only played 2 times and dominate. Jesus obviously wants me to.

I don't have a problem with past winners getting a start. They've proved themselves in the past and deserve the recognition - unlike some of the lesser LIV mercenaries.
Or lesser PGAT players
Btw, you might want to look up the definition of “professional”
Gabriela Ruffels is also talented & is starting to make some noise
Was an elite junior tennis player before taking up the game pretty late

I think you mean her sister Nelly (Jessica less talented and just had a baby). Inbee Park won her 7th Major in 2015, but since then no one has won more than 2 tournaments.
Korda's swing is right up there with Aberg as a thing of beauty, and she seems to have developed a Scheffler mentality for winning.
Helps that some of the top ladies haven’t been playing that well
