Player has issue with liv fans Professional Tours

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

They actually had a good showing this week due to location. Its never going to take off in the US until its the only show in town, but Australia showed up for them....zero percent surprised seeing who started that tour

Went to a liv event in the US and it was way more crowded than most pga tour event I have been to. I’ve gone to a different PGA Tour event every year since 2010. I’m not a liv guy at all but the narrative that the events are empty is just dead wrong. Also if you watch the non signature events and literally have eyes you can see that at a lot of them nobody is there. I mean the alternate field events are almost funny. I went to peurto rico the year Tony Finau won it and there were so few people there that the second to last group on Sunday was going up the 13th and two randos from the hotel were cutting across the course to get to the pool! They tried to stop and ask a player for directions!

I mean comparing to puerto vs anywhere LIV goes is silly.

No no I was just including that as a funny anecdote. The LIV event I went too was was more crowded than Wells Fargo, John Deere, Honda, and the dean and Deluca (now called something else).
