Finchem has disagreed with the TPA notion that the current system of player involvement is inadequate. But I think we should all work together on it and not divide ourselves into different so-called associations. So far, several players among the top 30 money winners have joined the TPA, including PGA champion Vijay Singh, but the association is aiming to attract more marquee players. Major championship winners Mark O'Meara, Tom Lehman, Greg Norman and Nick Price have expressed various degrees of support, said interim TPA president Danny Edwards. A survey of more than 20 players at the Greater Milwaukee Open indicated mixed reactions regarding the new association, with the majority of players questioned expressing support for the TPA and its purpose.
Anytime players are better informed, it's better for everybody.
We want to be heard as one strong group. I think the system works the way it is. These independent directors are sharp cookies. And 100 percent of the time they defer to the players. We need some of them to help carry the banner.
