It looks like LIV Golfers and PGA Tour golfers have found a little common ground.
joined Justin Thomas in railing against the USGA and R&A's recent proposal"The sport is at an all-time high, so let's don't mess with it," Watson said ahead of LIV Golf's second event of the season this week in Arizona,Two of golf’s governing bodies announced a plan this week that would force top golfers to use modified balls designed to limit distance off the tee. The balls would have to conform to not exceed the overall distance of 320 yards on carry and roll.
It’s unclear if the PGA Tour or other leagues would adopt this rule change. If they didn’t, it’s something that could only be required at the U.S. Open and British Open. "I don't know how many of y'all consistently play golf in here, but I promise none of you have come in from the golf course and said, you know, I'm hitting it so far and straight today that golf's just not even fun anymore," ThomasWatson cited DeChambeau, who is one of the longest hitters in the sport. DeChambeau led the Tour in driving distance in both 2019 and 2020, and set a then-record averaging 322.1 yards off the tee.
This season on Tour, golfers are averaging just more than 297 yards per drive. Rory McIlroy is averaging a Tour-best 326.6 yards per drive, and Thomas is averaging 305.6 yards, which is 40th best on Tour.
