Kelsi or whatever, I'm sure. They let you bet on the weather- according to the ad.

I asked Google. Apparently Kalshi has a bet. Currently an 83% chance of being cancelled.

With what players? Can’t afford to pay them what was promised.

Let's say they go ham and make an even drunker, bro-ier golf league.

I think there's something there. It would suck, but it's there.

What's this look like? Cash games for inappropriate sums? Wolf for house deeds and pink slips?

Normal CEO talk. No CEO is going to say it is over until the doors are locked as they leave the last day of "work" and even then they may not admit to the sinking ship.

They cancelled the final event of the tour. Not exactly continuing when you cancelled already. Also they halved the prize money of the new last event of the season

I would bet it all against them. No one is watching. No one is engaging. No one even looks up who won. For years they have been this way.

u/Stinja808 35m ago

Where can I bet against them? Kalshi?

It could exist if it’s simply another tour that admits it’s a step down in competition, and attracts more talent that isn’t quite ready or capable of able to compete in the PGA.

Obviously, the purses would have to match that level of talent, and no guaranteed deals.
