The Crew can't have it both ways. Either accept money from the Saudis, and similar to LIV Golf take heat for it, or pass and be at peace with public
into the desert is that LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman was not sent to Columbus as part of a package deal.
The Crew reportedly received between $6 million and $7 million in the deal, which buys a lot of Pabst Blue Ribbon at Betty’s but not a lot of good will among those who view the Saudis as trying to buy their way out of wrongs related to human rights. Fair is fair. Fans and front offices can’t have it both ways. You can’t castigate Phil Mickelson, Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau for padding their pockets with millions in Saudi cash and then excuse the Crew for doing the same, even if it was done in the name of improving the franchise and building the bank account of Zelarayan, who just got richer. Admit the dollar signs were too enticing to ignore.
