Hello, folks. Below is an assortment of takes, seared to a nice temperature for your consumption. Some of them are opinions I steadfastly believe.
Others are thoughts I think I believe. Others still are simply notices that should inform you of what’s going on and what may be coming down the pike.
Anyway, there are 10 of them. They’re all mine, but now they’re yours, too!
I am not going to call Twitter a perfectly representative audience, but the virality of Faxon’s mini rant/campaign/story/dig feels like some sort of sign.
People agree with him. A lot of people do. A lot of golf fans on Twitter believe Arnold Palmer would have handled this era of pro golf angst differently.
I think that’s a fair assessment. But I’m also not sure it’s absolutely relevant? The market structures were wildly different in Palmer’s era.
He used leverage of his own to found the PGA Tour. And then leveraged his stature and what he helped build to shut down Greg Norman’s attempts in the mid-90s.
