The unexpected merger between PGA, DP, and LIV Tours exposes the hypocrisy behind the golf world's civil war and raises questions about loyalty versus opportunity. We explore the shifting perceptions of age and how "old" is defined by perspective, while also diving into why wedges are the second most important clubs in your bag.
• PGA Tour leadership created a divisive narrative against LIV Tour only to later form a partnership
• Players who declined LIV's lucrative offers out of loyalty must now watch as former rivals return
• The merger announcement on June 6th sent shockwaves through the golfing community
• Ageism reflects more about the observer's perspective than actual limitations
• True "oldness" comes from loss of curiosity and playfulness, not chronological age
• Most golfers hit fewer greens in regulation than they think, making wedge selection crucial
• Ping Glide 4.0 wedges offer consistent performance across various course conditions
• Engineers often struggle to explain technical benefits in terms that matter to players
