*Do you think he was right to SNUB the do world tour?*
I had a job in Germany. Flying out and returning home every week. Hotels, restaurants etc. 2years. I hated it! Don't blame him for his change of lifestyle. I think key members of the team had input into the picks.
He should of been picked for the ryder cup . He is a really good player. If he just went for the money then so what good luck to him. I don't see anybody calling out , Fury, Joshua, Usyk, Frank Warren, Eddie Hearn etc for taking Saudi money. Its all bullshit Liv aint going anywhere its here to stay and will get bigger and bigger.
Euro Tour tosses aside legends like Sergio, Henrik, Westwood and Poulter… etc. just shows the younger players to look out for themselves bc the tour won’t have their back
Ryan Fox was not picked for the Presidents Cup in similar circumstances. I would not have been surprised if he had gone to LIV.
I know Europe won, but I thought he should have been picked as he had won on that course as well. I believe it’s a lost for the DP/PGA tour
Huge loss. For the it’s tour especially because the DP was bound to lose him anyway.
He’s drop becoz he’s Pole… nothing else
Good move Meronk!!! Much higher profile (may rarely ever see Meronk on the PGA and related tours). Will make more money. Will be playing with some of the best players in the world in every LIV tournament.
Only thing you got right is he is playing for more money.
@@petera2133 Thanks for your honesty and integrity ----- lol
@@petera2133 I heard the other day that Tiger is giving back 90% of all of his earnings to the pure of heart people at the PGA. Now that is a true golfer!!!!
Must be tough. All the money in the world. Getting paid to play a game. Free this free that. Travel the world. I know a thousands of guys that would kill to have a game like his and be where he is in life. Very hard to feel sorry for these guys! Just my opinion.
ALEX the fans are the real losers in this war. Fans want great golf , with top players , lots of golf action ,limited commercial breaks, exciting fun broadcast. LIV delivers a great fan experience.
LIv is bringing the shots baby!
LIV is giving me what I want to watch…
There is golf just watch it either on liv pga or dp world tour.
@@sharonwilliams2810 exactly. There’s just more golf to watch
Hope your watching your second full LIV event this week. LVCC is a really fun course, albeit a bit simple for these guys I would think. I played it a few years ago. It is so much fun watching a course I've played on tv, being played by some of the best in the world. I'm just sitting here like, yep, been in that bunker, yep, been in that bunker, been in that lake. There is the house my cuz hit. Brooks Koepka and I have now been in the same bunker. Granted, he played it a touch better than I did but that is not the point.
Agree ! I love to see these guys playing courses we play. They thought they were all gonna shoot in the 50’s lol.
Brutally ???? 😂😂 great video as always Alex.
Out of interest what were the viewing figures for liv? The waste management was brilliant with very strong crowds
Luke may have made a sound enough decision for the Ryder cup team in France (albeit Meronk WON on that course), but maybe not for the dp and pga tours. And frankly the future of the European team.
Nice to see everything not be so peachy and rosy for y’all.
The comedy of errors from both sides will probably add up on our side next time.
Thanks to NY fans.
How does anyone know he would not have been as good or better? Hindsight justification is a wonderful thing.
I think he's made a great decision for himself. Him not being picked for the Ryder Cup was a disgrace. Living out of a suitcase soon gets old and a real killer for any sort of family life. Good luck to him and I hope he does well on LIV.
The thing that Rory finally realised, and I think is mainly why he now keeps quiet, is that the vast majority of Pros cannot do what he does - only play selected events each year and very rarely does not make the cut. As a member of LIV, Adrian (and his family) now knows exactly what his schedule is for the year, and if he performs it will be the same next year. It is about time the PGA and European Tour both created an elite level competition that is only available for their top 50-60 elite players. 150 elite players playing 3 elite competitions with no cuts would be great for golf. The rest of the Pros are trying to make it to one of those comps - that is the way to go. No other elite sportsmen has to play for 2 days and not get paid - that old school crap system has to go. The only cut should be for the 4 Majors and The Players - those top 150 + qualifiers play for 2 days and only get paid if they make the cut. All other golf events/tournaments should have the players play all days and they all get paid - more for win, least for last. That is modern, fair, equal and IMO the best way to go forward in a professional sport. It is total crap that a Pro player has to prepare for a few days and then play for 2 days, but does not get paid - totally unfair old school crap.
Don't get carried away but he deservesd the pick
I was very surprised he wasn’t picked for the Ryder Cup.
Why do they get penalised if liv, pga, and dp are joining forces, the confusion is real
Because they are not yet so everyone needs to keep playing this but hurt game.
Rahm went to LIV because he knows something is coming, same as Hatton. Meronk should have been picked, too much 'Old Boys' club with picks. Did we actually win the Ryder Cup? No Europe drew with the USA and because of being the previous holders they got to keep it!
How is 16.5-11.5 a draw ?
What are you on about? Europe WON!
Oops someone wasn’t watching🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Adrian definitely deserved to be picked for the Ryder Cup team.
Shane Lowry was a certainty for the team because of Rory ,he shouldn’t have even been considered.
Yeah but Rory knew Shane would be needed to step in between him and Bones or he’d get his arse kicked in the car park😉😉
Been watching the pga event last night , seems a very depleted field a lot of names i’ve not heard of.
Apparently, he’s a loner on tour or not too many friends, and this is one of the reasons that he wasn’t picked. Difficult to find partners. Ryder Cup is a team event. He deserved a pick at the time, based on form, but history will show that Luke picked the strongest team.
Bullshit
Great video! So good to see liv taking over!
Come on, get your facts right. The Hoggard twins weren’t in the Ryder cup. One was but not both.
Meronk wasn't in the Rory club !!
I disagree that Donald made the right decision, Adrian deserved to be picked and I’m convinced that he would have performed as well if not better than all of his other 6 picks. I believe the problem is the current selection system that only allows the top 3 players via DP tour automatic selection. Giving the captain 6 picks and to have the top 3 world ranked players (an unfair and PGA tour bias system) takes away opportunities for genuine European based DP tour players. If win at all costs is our priority then just give the captain 12 picks 🤷 to hell with European based players and the DP tour.
But it’s not to have the best team, the euros have a good ol boy system themselves. Not nearly as bad and damaging as US, but there’s some.
Meronk belonged. I defended luke. There was a case to be made that Meronk is more of a bomber in a set up set up for shorter accurate players.
But I agree despite that factor Meronk would have made the euros better. Just as many Americans in LIv would have made the Americans better. I also think Sergio would have made the euros better on a tight track as it was.
But that’s all nor here nor there for an event killing its integrity playing leverage games.
The Ryder cup is now over hyped and an over rated measure of a players career.
Meronk comes across as a major case of sour grapes. Giving Åberg the spot in Rome was correct given his massive potential & merit, as was giving Lowry a slot as he has been there & done it in a Major AND the Ryder Cup.
Sadly Meronk is not in that category & would have been on the team if he’d actually qualified
No one blames Meronk or Hatton etc unless you are a complete PGATOUR shrill. The European tour and PGATOUR management have effed this whole situation up so badly its astonishing. The short sightedness of their strategies by instantly going "to war" and refusing to sit down and negotiate at the start of all this 3 or more years ago has lead us to where no tournament has the best field anymore. Yesterday i watched the ladies European tour in Kenya instead of Qatar masters because the DP World event literally had no one.
If they want to join LIV fine, I just don’t want to hear the crying that comes afterwards. They know there are no points to earn before hand,
No brainer for him. Why play PGA tour to maybe be in 9 signature events and also have to play a bunch of lower tier events, when you are guarenteed to play only 12 events which all are elevated events v2.0?
He was probably made an offer before the Ryder Cup and declined to show loyalty to the DPWT, only to be turned away from making the team. So now just thought fuck loyalty and look after his own interest.
Europe won, Meronk is not the only player over the years that didn't get picked and it won't be the last. Did Europe miss Casey, Garcia, Westwood and Poulter? No.
How do you know LD made the right decision? How do you know what would have happened if he was picked… as he should have!
Most of us work 5 days a week, if we were offered more money to just work 3 days a week, its a no brainer
Meronk got screwed. Luke picked his "boys". Lowry had been playing poorly all year. He didn't deserve to be there. The European Ryder Cup team won because of the great good fortune that several of the Euro players got hot at the right time, at the same time. Rahm even looked slightly embarrassed by his luck, at times. I don't blame Meronk for going to LIV and basically saying. "You guys don't seem to want me, they do, and I'll be paid handsomely in the bargain ".
Take the money and you make crazy money at every event.
How does anyone know how Adrian Meronk would have performed in the Ryder Cup? You can't assume he would have done poorly. The original Ryder Cup spots were earned based on two years of performance with the captains having only two picks. Again, the bias that the UK people have against the Polish people was on display. Remember the Polish pilots and solders were treated like trash during and after WW2 when they were stationed in the UK.
Hate to be harsh, but... What about all the working folks that have to travel all the time? Consultants, service techs, etc. They have to figure out how to raise a family, go from airport to airport, and such. They don't make near the money that professional golfers do and most people who travel for work end up working twelve to fourteen plus hours per day every week of the year. They're happy if they get to play golf on a rare occasion whereas these pros get to do it every day. Sorry if they don't have my sympathy.
His result in 2024 Masters ….third from last, 14 over par.
Because a man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man. Wise move 100%
Did Adrian Meronk deserve a pick? I am a fan of his and would say yes but like any other team sport when it comes to relying on the selection process, there will always be an element of subjectivity. The cruel answer is don’t leave it up to others, control your destiny. Meronk is not the first to be overlooked and he will not be the last. From memory did this not happen to Matt Wallace? Whether or not he’s made the right decision, it’s entirely up to him but based on his comments I can’t help feeling the decision was more in a fit of pique and he’s undersold himself. Then again, maybe he’s not confident he can maintain the same high standard and decided to cash in. With regard to your point about travelling and the challenges of being a professional golfer, I’m afraid that comes with the territory and if he feels it’s an easier life joining LIV why not?
Not money then
NO He shouldn't have given up so easily
Thrown his dummy out of the pram
Did Luke Donald make the right decision? You made the assumption that he did, but we will never know. Meronk could have won every match. We will never know. We just know the result.
Who is he? I’ve never heard of him 😂😂😂
Narrow minded for $10 million
Go who cares
Europe winning does not mean the right decisions made. Rose should never have been there ahead Meronk
What bull! Its the money, fullstop.
If he was a better player he would have made the team on points , he isn’t so tuff luck and he’s a poor putter under pressure as well!!
With just a tiny bit more time he would have made it on points. And everyone knew that.
Meronk is such a baby. First of all how he handled the so called snub... whereas if he or anyone were to go through Meronk's vs Lowry's performances that year (since that was the guy many thought was his snub), it was very close. Meronk got a couple of wins but he was extremely inconsistent and the 8 biggest tournaments he played in that year he missed the cut 6 times, but I digress. And now, he's acting like an even bigger baby... rather a spoiled brat.
I'm no fan of the pga tour establishment, but to blame the pga tour over not being selected by the Ryder cup captain, is ludicrous.
So it's become pretty apparent that Meronk had some others things going against him when it came too not being selected. He comes across a bit like a jackass, so if you're building a team you want a cool group of guys who gel together... It's seems as though Meronk is a little off personality wise.
Sorry he went for the money and money only 🤑🤑
Wouldn’t you?
How much did he get?

Who cares Europe won really that’s the only thing that matter he’s gone for money just be honest
PGA tour is losing the battle.
LIV had last Sunday all to itself, and only got roughly 400k viewers. The Farmers on Saturday got roughly 1.9 million. Now with the PGA having player equity available, it could be possible going forward that the LIV golfers left for penny’s on the dollar.
Yes they are. I kept telling them you can’t beat them. You need to join them. But they no listen.
Thanks for going to LIV…PGA Tour doesn’t need you anyway…BIG BABY…
Do you blame him? as they usually just pick their own old friends for this tournament
I reckon Meronk made a bad decision to join LIV
I'll join liv for $500,000!
10 million$$$ I would Fire The Team, that's such a ridiculous low amount of incentive $$$, cutting your nose off despite your face.....
Adrian is upset that the other tours are not growing the game, unlike LIV.
Hence, he made the ultimate decision to be part of the greatest tour in order to grow the game.
He became a beLIVer! 🫡
How hard is it for grown men to work this MERGER out. We the golf fans know there will be only 1 main WORLD tour if there is a MERGER. The others just feeder tours. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘🪃🪃
