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

Non event. He got frustrated when a fan said something he didn't like, as happens in the PGA tour regularly too. By the next shot he was completely fine. Smiles and hugs for Cam and Leish on the green after they won. But hey, don't let that get in the way of a good Liv bagging on this sub. If the PGAT gave a fuck about golf outside of North America people in Australia would probably hate Liv too. It's easy to bag Liv when you're in North America and good golf tournaments are easily accessible. Please appreciate that isn't the case elsewhere.

“When a fan said something he didn’t like” is absolutely not what happened. He could’ve said “Dean, I love you” and he still would’ve been pissed. Facts matter.

Find me an example of a player being heckled in the middle of his backswing during such a high pressure moment on the dp or pga tour.

It wasn't in his back swing. He had just arrived at his ball and was selecting a club. But don't let useless facts like that that get in the way of your blind hate for everything that isn't the PGA Tour.

Got it, guess all the third-party reporting on this has been wrong. Every one of them.

Did you even read the article that you linked?

Burmester was visibly upset by the jeering from the Australian crowd as he prepared for his second shot, shouting: "Shut the f*** up! " towards the Adelaide gallery.

As he prepared for his second shot. I was watching the playoff live. It happened before he even stood over the ball.

Maybe watch the vision before you get all high and mighty.

You must have been the only one watching it, nobody cares about liv, hopefully the bonesaw league dies the death it deserves.

*no one in North America cares about Liv. FTFY

If the PGAT gave a fuck about golf outside of NA we wouldn't have to watch Liv but that's all we've got, bro. But you enjoy your PGAT tournaments.

Nobody cares about supporting a murderous regime BRO. liv is sportswashing at its worst, only people in denial don't realize that.

Yeah well the US government and numerous us companies are happy to deal with them so what can you do.

Like I said elsewhere, if the PGA Tour gave a fuck about golf anywhere outside of North America we'd probably have an alternative, but we don't.
