LIV Golf might be heading toward a funding cliff, and that forces a question nobody can dodge: where do all these world-class players go if the current model changes after 2026? We talk through the ripple effects, from fewer PGA Tour starts and the rise of signature events to what a more global schedule could look like under new leadership with an NFL growth mindset.

Then we pivot from the tour drama to the part of golf that actually changes your score tomorrow: course management and putting. We break down why “bad course management” usually isn’t a single bad swing, it’s the decision to aim at every flag. The best players pick smarter targets, accept 15 to 20 feet, and let good misses look great.

From there, we go full putting nerd and make it usable. You’ll hear the case for the one-foot-past rule, what TrackMan’s 1.62 mph entry speed really implies, and why dying putts can lose their roll and get knocked offline by crowning, footprints, or grain. We also cover why long putts rarely drop, how face angle tolerance tightens with distance, and why putter fit (loft, attack angle, arc, toe hang, forgiveness) matters more than chasing perfect “zero” numbers.

We close with simple practice you can actually stick to: a mirror check for eye line and aim, a tee cross drill at 3, 6, 9, and 12 feet to build pressure, and a lag putting target built around a 10% leave zone. Subscribe for next week, share this with a buddy who hates straight putts, and leave a review with your biggest putting miss and why you think it happens.
