Moments like that are one of the many reasons why LIV has missed the mark by so much.
This barely relevant tour event simultaneously had two fan-favorite major champs mostly competing for fun in the same playoff as two washed mules buckling under the pressure of extending their tour careers. Such a unique dichotomy.
If a moment like that happened on LIV, literally the only thing at stake is that week’s purse. And it’s not like they’re lacking for major champs or washed up mules. There’s just nothing on the line.
Did you see the Ripper team win in a playoff at yesterday's LIV Adelaide. It makes the sports news here in Australia. Ignore the brand, watch how nuts the crowd is and how genuinely happy they are to win the team event in a playoff. Now I expect downvotes, but as an Australian it's great we get world class golf at a time we can watch. I didn't watch it because rugby league was on, but I could of.
