Can't believe they actually have so many sponsors bought in on this. This looks retarded.

You are watching people play a golf simulator

Its like watching people play arcade racing instead of real cars

Well they have us watching which is the goal.

I don’t think it lasts long term but it’s interesting.

I'm pretty sure this only exists to bribe players from getting poached by LIV.

Whatever they're being paid to do this, it's too much.

I actually think this moves too fast. Feels very rushed, but I get this is for TV.

They need to cut back on the Marty smith and officiating thing but otherwise I don’t mind it so far.

I agree. It needs some kind of over the top element. Loser gets a Ping putter up his arse or his wife has to show her tits. Something to make it interesting.

Wathcing pros play a simulator to rap music is not interesting at all.

I applaud them for trying something different. It seems like most of us only watch sports on live TV so this fills a gap with nothing else other than NBA and NCAA going on and I’m guessing the VInn diagram of golfers and basketball fans is a thin slice.

This will be one of the biggest failures in sports entertainment history. They're so far in the hole on this venture, there's no shot of ever climbing out. They built an entire building that was destroyed and had to be rebuilt. All the tech isn't cheap. It doesn't make any sense.

Dude. There is quite literally another golf venture right now that has spent BILLIONS with no signs of recouping it

Rickie can't putt. Doesn’t matter what format.

Does this really require an NBA referee 'officiating'?

This seems like an extreme overreaction

It’s the first night and needs some tweaking, but there isn’t shite else on TV in this time slot. People will watch for that reason alone.
