PGA legend Tiger Woods and LIV Golf star Pat Perez are going at it hammers and tongs over the controversial Saudi\u002Dbacked tour.
Tiger Woods of the United States smiles with Pat Perez of the United States on the practice green during a practice round prior to the 2019 PGA Championship at the Bethpage Black course on May 14, 2019 in Bethpage, New York.Well, that was all a little much for Perez and on the Son of a Butch podcast, hosted by Claude Harmon III, he laid into the legend.
“That’s the stupidest s—t I have ever heard of in my life,” Perez said. “That’s one of the stupidest things I think he has said.”Article content Perez added: “The incentive is the fact that last place is $120,000, first place is $4 million. You cannot win $4 million on the PGA Tour. Now, next year, you might; they finally got the perks. But last time I checked, he signed a $40-million deal right out of college, was flying on the Nike jet. He found incentive. He could have shut it down right then.
“He had a lot of guarantees. You know what, and he was the hottest thing. He’s made so much money off the course; he found incentive to go,” Perez said. “But again, he only played how many tournaments? He didn’t go — I never saw him at John Deere, never saw him supporting all these events. He played in the majors, he played in the WGCs and that was it. He played Torrey. Never played Riv [Riviera]. But he’s worth every dime. In fact, like I said, he’s $2 billion short of where he should be, I think.”
