Quick recap of last week's action and a look towards LA where Tiger hosts the Genesis Open at Riviera CC. - Nick Taylor was your winner at the WASTE(D) Management open in Phoenix. A total mess of a golf tournament with rain, waaaay to much alcohol and unruly fans that will test the PGA TOUR's crisis response team to the limit. That said, congrats to Nick! - Duston Johnson won the LIV Tour's Las Vegas event, which went off without a hitch and made the PGA TOUR's event look childlike by comparison. A really interesting turn of perception from earlier in the week. - The PGA TOUR is in Los Angeles this week at the Genesis Open where John Rahm would be your defending champ had he not left for the LIV Tour. - In other golf news, Tiger Woods is no longer with Nike and has launched his own "Sun Day Red" brand. To early to tell how it will perform, but a really curious choice with the logo... My guess is it isn't a winner in the long run... Hit 'em straight! Roger The LinkedIn Golf Guy
