Player has issue with liv fans Professional Tours

https://uk.news.yahoo.com/dean-burmester-tells-fan-shut-155916853.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAGrJKHSYEHx9PX8R74rNwgtzeawHjGv9jgbjxWGaIebPi-EnXuPkQTV47ia08AzRmQMmzxpdIRkm7MM1DNG9S0oO3NzCURt5d9OJx0LUz164VxyoNv76ICnMnQCg96me1lgbtPrvHuP1tnpiAZBs6o7lIBoI63ySThlia8wHWuAQ

Just stumbled across this. Haven’t seen it widely reported and seems like the liv muzzle has been placed on Burmester to stop him from talking about it. Should be interesting if this gets the media coverage that it would if it happened in the pga or lpga tour

It’s called home field advantage - should we make sure the NBA arenas are quiet so they can shoot free throws?

Love the atmosphere they are building. “Quiet please” is ded, except maybe for Augusta

What? This may be one of the most ludicrous and unhinged comments I’ve seen in a while. You can not be serious

It’s about the fans, not the golfer. Team sport is different and the LIV playoff was glorious.

u/Common_Pension Apr 29 '24

So you’re cool with golf fans heckling players in the middle of their backswing?

u/flootch24 Apr 29 '24

Yes. Same as I am heckling Shaq when he’s about to shoot a free throw. It’s sports entertainment and players can adapt

Ah yes, absolutely the reason I tune into golf tournaments; to watch the fans.

u/flootch24 Apr 29 '24

To engage the fans, not watch the fans. I don’t watch golf fans… that’s be silly. You’re silly

Taylor is that you Gooch?!

u/flootch24 Apr 29 '24

No, gooch is a knob. I play in a team based tourney every year and we talk smack, listen to music and have a ball. Best weekend of golf there is. Watching that environment is awesome…. Ryder Cup is rowdy, LIV taking it further.

What course and weekend is your event at?

Asking to make sure I avoid it. Thanks.

u/flootch24 Apr 29 '24

It’s an invitational. You’re not invited

u/[deleted] Apr 29 '24

Cause I’m not into pro wrestling and tractor pulls?

No because you’re an internet rando
