LIV Golf's social media team is introducing the world to the future of golf with a sizzle reel of yesterday's action and it feels like a music festival I'm not really interested in...

I guarantee more showed up for the very 1st LIV event than did the very first PGA event.

Pretty easy bet since there are about 20 times as many people today than when the PGA first opened...if you watched it you gotta be tired....it was horrible.

Each time I see "LIV" in a headline I think it's some kind of Super Bowl article.

LIV is 54 in roman numerals. The LIV tour plays 3 rounds instead of 4. 3 rounds = 54 holes

I thought it was 54 bc that’s the score if you were to birdie every hole on a course that’s par 72?

Or takes after LIV at the Fontainebleau Resort in Miami Beach and just wait till the 'rappers' start showing up.

Looks pretty awful. But it's the first event so let's see what happens.

Any event where you ride a bike to pretend to power the event is an immediate “no” for me.

The USFL (original league) of golf. Big money, not enough talent to stay afloat.

For now. Its not like USFL pays even close to what the NFL pays so there is that. The guy who won today made 4.7 million and hasnt won on tour since 2016. "People will come Ray"

Big money? It's the Saudi government. They have billions to burn and they won't blink an eye...

As much as I dislike the try hards at PGA events that wear golf shoes to the course....this looks worse

If I was there media team I'd be in hiding. We know what the Saudis do to media people they don't like. #AcidBath

I watched as much as I could....horrible doesn't do it justice.
Announcers that came from the a World Wide Wrestling event...no crowds...no players. If that's their product the guys better hang on to their PGA cards. By the way you can by a three day pass all encomapssing for $6000...bargin...huh.

I can't recall it being designated as the future of golf. Just another league. I may be wrong.
