Professional golf has just entered the unbundling phase. @TigerWoods first professional @PGATOUR event was almost 26 years ago, which led to the bundling of talent on one tour. Purses on the @PGATOUR went up, TV revenue went up and quality of all tournaments were elevated. @PGATOUR had a massive advantage, 3/4 majors are on US soil , tournaments were better, purses much larger and players only had to traverse 3 time zones. World golf had no chance and the flywheel started. Finchem created the WGCs and #FedExCup, global talent was hooked.
