Golf's 'merger' is about how obscenely rich men can get obscenely richer

Poor Rory. How must he have felt?

He could have taken a gargantuan fortune from one organisation but had instead stayed loyal and taken a less gargantuan fortune from another organisation.

And then, it turns out, he could have taken both.

Seriously, his hundreds of millions could have been more hundreds of millions, how could we not feel sorry for him?

The injustices of this world cut deep. Who didn’t have a sleepless night when it emerged Rory had taken the extra money from the PGA Tour – oops, sorry, defended the PGA Tour – instead of defecting to LIV Golf?

If there is one thing that characterises the whole LIV/ PGA Tour/DP World Tour saga, it is that there is only ONE salient question.

How can obscenely rich men get obscenely richer?

What a faintly depressing, faintly soulless, moral-free, avaricious entity modern professional golf – perhaps, sport – has become.
