It explores the financial aspects of the Professional Golf Association (PGA) and the proposed Premier Golf League (LIV). The PGA's assets include tournament revenue, media rights, Tournament Players Clubs, corporate licensing, and investments. On the other hand, LIV possesses player contracts, teams, and TV rights. The absence of competition until LIV's establishment is emphasized.The podcast outlines the importance of the primary investor, referred to as PIF, who controls the money and seeks ways to increase the value of the investment in the golf industry.The concept of LIV teams is discussed, with the captain owning a 25% stake.
