Euroopan Ryder Cup -joukkueen vuoden 2016 parhaan pelaajan, Thomas Pietersin siirtyminen LIV Golfin sopimuspelaajaksi on julkaisua vaille valmis. Tämä ”tieto” levisi loppuviikosta kulovalkean tavoin twitterissä, jossa 31-vuotiaan bighitterin päätöstä kommentoitiin varsin värikkäin sanankääntein.
Maailmanlistalla sijalla 35:s oleva Belgian supertähti Thomas Pieters valitteli edellisviikolla sitä, että hän ei mahtunut mukaan PGA Tourin Los Angelesin kilpailuun.
Sad to miss my favorite tournament of the year. Because well as #34 in world, I just couldn’t get in @PGATOUR. 🤷🏻♂️ #GenesisInvitational

Pieters on pelannut enimmäkseen DP World Tourilla ja päässyt maailmanlistan sijoituksensa perusteella PGA Tourin kisoihin.
Tiger Woodsin isännöimään kisaan ovet eivät auenneet. Syynä saattoi olla sekin, että Genesis Invitationalissa 2017 sensaatiomaisesti toiseksi sijoittuneen belgialaisen siirtymisestä LIV Golfin sopimuspelaajaksi oli vuotanut myös PGA Tourin puolelle.
Hänen nimensä on vilahdellut mediassa vahvistamattomien siirtyjien listalla jo edelliskaudella. PGA Tourilla oli syynsä olla antamatta Pietersille mahdollisuutta olla esillä kiertueella, jonka organisoimiin kisoihin hänellä ei siirtymisen jälkeen ole nykyisessä tilanteessa mitään asiaa.
Käytännössä on selvää, että Pieters oli valmistellut siirtymistään /allekirjoittanut sopimuksen LIV Golfiin ennen kuin PGA Tour päätti jättää ottamatta hänet mukaan Riviera Country Clubilla pelattavaan kisaan.
Belgialainen golfmedia arvioi sunnuntaina Pietersin saavan sopimuksen tekemisestä 6-9 miljoonan dollarin korvauksen.
Tämä jää murto-osaan siitä mitä kirkkaimpien tähtien Phil Mickelsonin (200 milj. D), Dustin Johnsonin (150 milj.D) ja Bryson DeChambeaun (100 milj.D) oletetaan saaneen monivuotisista sopimuksista, joihin kerrotaan sisältyvän runsaasti reunaehtoja.
DP World Tourilla PIeters on pelannut 189 kisaa ja ansainnut näissä noin 10,5 miljoonaa euroa.
Kontrasti LIV Golfin tarjoamiin ”takuukorvauksiin” yksittäisissä kisoissa on valtava, sillä palkintorahoja jaettiin edelliskaudella keskimäärin noin 500 000 € euroa osallistujaa kohden.
As some of you might not know the news yet, Thomas Pieters will tomorrow be officialy announced to move to @livgolf_league. A choice for family and money (apparently 6 to 9 million USD to make the move). pic.twitter.com/lHvtSDnZGa

DP World Tourin pelaajat ovat toistaiseksi päässeet mukaan kisoihin, vaikka heillä olisikin sopimus LIV Golfin kanssa.
Pieters lukeutuu DP World Tourilla raskaan sarjan profiilipelaajiin. Hän on voittanut kuusi henkilökohtaista kisaa, näiden lisäksi World Cupin yhdessä Thomas Detryn kanssa, isännöinyt kahta Belgiassa pidettyä pääkiertueen kisaa, sekä loistanut Ryder Cupissa 2016 Euroopan parhaana pistemiehenä.
Tammikuussa 2023 hän pelasi DP World Tourin organisoimassa Hero Cupissa Manner-Euroopan joukkueessa Francesco Molinarin toimiessa pelaavana kipparina. Kisaan liittyvässä twiitissään Pieters nosti joukkuekisat ylimmälle asteikolle omassa arvomaailmassaan.
Cool week at the Hero Cup. Nothing beats team sports. @F_Molinari 👊🏻 #herocup pic.twitter.com/fzXZt37ppa

LIV Golf julkaisi jo edellisviikolla Chilen Mito Pereiran ja Kolumbian Sebastian Munozin tekemät sopimukset.
Pereira muistetaan PGA Championshipista, jota hän johti varsin yllättäen edelliskaudella kolmella lyönnillä ennen sunnuntain kierrosta. Yhteen lyöntiin sulanut johto ennen viimeistä reikää mureni ojaan painuneeseen avaukseen. Tuplabogin tehnyt Pereira jätettiin kolmanneksi.
Vahvistuksen Thomas Pietersin allekirjoituksesta on useiden medioiden twiiteissä arvioitu tulevan maanantaina. LIV Golfin kilpailukausi käynnistyy kolmipäiväisenä kisana perjantaina Meksikossa.
