1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:03,200
Speaker 1: This is jem nation with Jes.

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 2: Down to the Jonesy demand of arms for the pub

3
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 2: test today, Cameron Smith, the golfer signing with this Saudi

4
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 2: backed golf to it does this pass the pub test?

5
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 3: It's been lured by Greg Norman. There's been speculation and

6
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:20,120
Speaker 3: now it's been confirmed. He's the nicest man, he's Australian,

7
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 3: he's the second top ranking golfer in the world. He's

8
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 3: the first top ten golfer to join l IV as

9
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 3: it's known, this Saudi backed golf tournament that's an alternative

10
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 3: to the PGA. So you either play the PGA or

11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 3: you go to this other renegade group that's starting up

12
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 3: that Greg Norman is involved with.

13
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 2: Is that World Series Cricket I guess or Super League?

14
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 2: But having said that, the Saudis have had some human

15
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:45,880
Speaker 2: rights issues.

16
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 3: At the moment very much so. Also, you either play

17
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 3: one or you play the other here, right, I think

18
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 3: that's how it goes. Yes, this has been backed by

19
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 3: as they say, Saudi Petro dollars. Saudi's trying to repay

20
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 3: its image to be a tourist destination. But is it

21
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 3: wrong to overlook the human rights in discretions? Women's rights,

22
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 3: murdering of journalists, et cetera, et cetera. But he's been

23
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 3: off at one hundred and forty million dollars pretty much

24
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 3: for a three year deal, So what would you do?

25
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,479
Speaker 3: Is twenty nine years old? He says this tool will

26
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 3: bring him more to Australia. He misses his friends, misses

27
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 3: his family. So what do you think Cameron Smith's signing

28
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 3: with Saudi back golf Tour does a past the pub test.

29
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, made it past the pub test.

30
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 3: Look, he's definitely going to make a lot more money

31
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 3: over there than.

32
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 1: He is going to make on the PGA. When you

33
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 1: look at their prizes and you can't really blame the

34
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: young feller. What about the older guys as well? The

35
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 1: older guys that don't have much left in their career.

36
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: How the hell are they going to turn down one

37
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: hundred and forty million when they can be lucky to

38
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: win a couple one hundred thousand. It does pass the

39
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: pub tests. Saudi money covers about a quarter of the

40
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: US foreign debt, So I don't know these people getting

41
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: on their travels and talking about how he's taking Saudi money.

42
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: On top of that, the European PGA already two tournaments

43
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: in Saudi Arabia, So what it's good for them and

44
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: not good for Cameron.

45
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 3: Oh yeah whatever.

46
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: I mean. Australian sports people don't have a great reputation

47
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: of being respectful towards women, so whether.

48
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 3: He's in Australia or Saudi doesn't really matter.

49
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 1: Does it.

50
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 3: There you go, what if we can take him with

51
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 3: that bright
