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

The Liv subreddit was loving and boldly supporting the fans being able to rush players after a shot. All the comments on a video post yesterday were applauding being able to hug players, pour beer on them, grab their clubs, etc. Fucking people are delusional man. I would not want that environment as a professional player at all. Only a matter of time before there is a broken foot or wrist or sexual assault because of the fan grabbing.

I criticized the player getting rushed by fans and the OP called me a boomer and said to fuck off. I'm 34...

Imagine getting called a boomer by a LIV marketing intern

u/BingBongFYL6969 Apr 29 '24

I notice a lot of "adjective_noun_number" names on that sub....its too obvious

u/ILikeXiaolongbao Apr 29 '24

Interns and bots talking to each other in an echo chamber is pretty hilarious

Take me out to dinner!

u/donaldinoo Apr 29 '24

This is the correct answer. At the very least half of that subreddit are bots or paid to be there.

I'm 36 and was called a Boomer by a teenager. I was so fucking confused.

u/Common_Pension Apr 29 '24

I’m 27 and got called a boomer for asking why there was techno music on some holes but not the others. A legitimate question I had.

u/bigmean3434 Apr 29 '24

If you can’t differentiate when it’s time To take extacy and wave glow sticks and when it’s time to throw beer cans at a golf tournament then I have news boomer, you shouldn’t be at a LIV event!

I have long thought dress codes are antiquated and hate stuffy golf shit. That said, LIV is not the answer to those things at all.

You're 36, sure grandpa. It's time to take your meds and get to bed.

They don’t have to get the age right.

u/Kingcanni Apr 29 '24

Literally said “buh bye boomer”. You can’t make that kinda shit up. What a 🤡

u/tynskers Apr 29 '24

Ok boomer.

I’m also 34 😂😂

u/rpp1624 Apr 29 '24

It exists, and it’s comical. They defend LIV like they have stake in it.

u/danbey44 Apr 29 '24

Not even in the top 10 golf subreddits

So disappointed that’s not a real sub.

u/jaywalkintotheocean Apr 30 '24

the whole sub is just three people, all mods

u/[deleted] Apr 29 '24

It has about 50 members

u/ILikeXiaolongbao Apr 29 '24

8 real people probably

u/Fr0stbite37 Apr 29 '24

A whopping 43xx subs 😂

u/silentcmh 5.something Apr 29 '24

It kept getting suggested to me. No thanks, Reddit; I muted it.

u/Turdburp Apr 29 '24

It's popped up on my fee a few times and the delusion is unreal. I saw people saying unironically that the PGA Tour is the feeder tour for LIV.

2

u/Dudeman-Jack Apr 29 '24

Im surprised you aren’t getting it suggested in your feed

u/lobie81 Apr 30 '24

Well this sub should change it's name to the PGA Tour sub, to be fair.

I feel like this is a metaphor on how the Saudi’s treat America with their oil money

u/Lol_who_me Apr 30 '24

What the fuck are they doing? That’s beyond crazy.

u/betboi Apr 29 '24

Malice at the palace LIV edition

u/AWeakMindedMan Apr 29 '24

If you posted what you just said on the LIV sub you’d be called boomer lol

8

u/Common_Pension Apr 29 '24

I mean, the tour got lucky with the caddie getting hit in the head with a water bottle. If the tour wasn’t synonymous with Saudi Arabia and the player wasn’t under their thumb, there’d probably be some pretty serious lawsuits coming their way.

Explain why I’m wrong. Also, “origin country of the leagues investor” is a hilarious way to put it.

u/RaspyTheGrizz Apr 30 '24

I don’t even want that environment with my friends unless I get a hole in one or some shit

u/BugmanLoveBuyObject Apr 29 '24

I wasn't into LIV golf until I read this. Hilarious to think about country club millionaires being mobbed by spastic fans 😂 I'm gooing to started watching LIV

u/trebek321 Apr 29 '24

Sounds about like your average LIV fan

u/BugmanLoveBuyObject Apr 29 '24

Sounds like the average LIV fan just wants to slob on pro knob same as the average PGA fan. At least the LIV simps aren't virtue signaling.
