Transcript

Good some breaking news in the golf world that we have to talk about. The Internet invitational just announced a $4,000,000 prize pool. Point blank, that is life changing money. And to put that into just a little bit of perspective, Russell Henley just won a PGA tier event and took home 1,780,000. So for a four day YouTube event, this is absolutely insane. And if you don't know what the internet invitational is, the fellas over at Bob Does Sports teamed up with Barstool Sports to put on a major golf event containing some of the best golf content creators and personalities in the content space. The full cast is yet to be released, but there are already some fun names that are gonna make this thing electric. One being Evan Thompson. We've got Short Game King. I'm sure there will be many more. But if you didn't watch the first Internet Invitational, the reason I call it a cast is because this is reality TV first. There was a ton of drama with Luke Kwan, Sleeping Best, Worst, Sleeping In, Slope Gate with Melosi. Paige Speranek took a ton of heat during the first Internet Invitational, unsure if she'll play this year. And also, if you wanna stay up to date on everything happening in the golf world, follow for more. So if the second Internet Invitational is anything like the worst, and then you add a $4,000,000 prize pool, this thing is going to be entertaining. But I wanna know one name that you are dying to see at this year's Internet Invitational.
