Pat Perez’s wife goes on wild rant after husband joins LIV Golf
Bryson DeChambeau’s defection to the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Series earlier this week completed a remarkable u-turn after the 28-year-old had publicly stated he was fully committed to the PGA Tour on multiple occasions over the past few months.
Per multiple reports, Bryson is not the only player to have had a change of heart though, with Pat Perez one of the latest names to have signed up with the breakaway tour.

Earlier this year, Perez told media that he would follow Tiger Woods’ lead and not Phil Mickelson or Bryson DeChambeau when it came to the Saudi-backed Series. However, Perez has now decided to ignore Woods’ lead, with the NY Post claiming that the 46-year-old has received $10 million for signing with LIV Golf.
On Friday night, Perez’s wife delivered an epic rant on her Instagram Live where she took aim at “haters,” revealing that she had already blocked hundreds and declared that the new Tour is going to be “iconic.”
Pat Perez’s wife weighed in on his decision to leave for the LIV Tour on IG.
Golf is honestly a WWE storyline at this point.

“Hello my Instagram family. I feel so dumb having to go on here and having to do this video for you guys. But I just wanted to throw something out into the universe. My Instagram platform is not me, myself promoting my body in a sexual way for you guys to go home and enjoy yourself with.
“Nor is it promoting useless s**t I don’t use that I am trying to sell and promote to you. My Instagram is solely based only my family.
“So if anybody feels the need to say anything, and I mean anything negative about Pat going to the LIV Tour, you will be blocked. Just like 200, maybe even 300 people are already. And you’ll never be back in. Anyways that being said, I love you all, cherish you all ’till you say some bull**t that I don’t like. I don’t want it, and I don’t need it, I will not accept it, I will not allow it in my world ever.
“So, if you feel the need to say something go ahead and just f—king delete me from your page. I won’t miss you. This new tour is going to be ICONIC!”
In a later post, Perez’s wife revealed that Michael Jordan had called her husband to assure the golfer that Jordan Brand would remain his sponsor.

“Is it a Titleist?” – Jerry Seinfeld shares never-before-heard details of iconic scene
On Thursday, legendary comedian Jerry Seinfeld joined the Rich Eisen Show and shared an awesome story from a “Seinfeld” episode titled “The Marine Biologist.”
In the episode, a golf ball goes into the blow hole of a whale. According to Seinfeld, that was never in the episode’s script.
Seinfeld recalls saying the night before the filming of the episode, “What if what puts the whale in distress is Kramer’s golf ball?”
“He’s hitting golf balls at the beach. George is at the beach with a girl, we haven’t connected them!”
“We write that speech the night before at two o’clock in the morning…The sea was angry that day my friend.”

Kramer finishes the iconic scene by asking “Is it a Titleist?” Seinfeld told Eisen the show sought Titleist’s permission to mention its name, saying the ball had to be a Titleist. Fortunately for lovers of the iconic show, the company agreed.
If (somehow) you’re unfamiliar with the scene, check it out below.

Phil Mickelson drops big retirement hint; Says LIV will grow the game ‘on a much more global basis’
While speaking with Bloomberg, golf legend Phil Mickelson acknowledged that he is inching close towards retirement.
“I’m 53 now,” Phil said, “and my career, you know, it’s — if I’m being truthful, it’s on — it’s — it’s — I’m a — it’s towards its end.”
Mickelson added that one of his focuses now is helping other young players.
“Now, I would like to help others find the same enjoyment and fulfillment that the game has provided me. I’d like them to experience that as well.”
The six-time major champion credited LIV with reaching new markets in golf to help it grow.
“I think that’s exciting for everyone involved in the game because we are going to reach markets that we didn’t reach before. I think it’s going to inspire more golf courses, inspire more manufacturers selling clubs and equipment, but also inspiring young kids to try to play golf professionally. I just see that the game of golf is going to grow on a much more global basis because of the excitement and the presence that LIV Golf has.”
Mickelson is playing at this week’s LIV Singapore and shot a first round 72 (+1).

Tiger explains why golf has ‘negative connotations’ for daughter Sam
While Tiger Woods’ son, Charlie, has certainly inherited his father’s love for golf, his daughter, Sam, has not.
On Wednesday, Tiger made an appearance on The Today Show with Carson Daly and explained his daughter’s relationship with golf.
“Golf has negative connotations for her. When she was growing up, golf took daddy away from her. I had to pack, I had to leave, and I was gone for weeks. So, there were negative connotations to it.
“We developed our own relationship and our own rapport outside of golf. We do things that doesn’t involve golf. Meanwhile, my son and I, everything we do is golf related.”
The nine-minute interview touches on plenty of other subjects, such as Tiger’s relationship with his late father, Earl.
It’s arguably the most open we’ve seen the 15-time major champion in an interview and is most definitely worth watching.
