Definitely would guess not many. Still enjoying the cash, reduced workload and I’d bet the younger guys mostly think there will be path to return if that’s better for them.

Just spitballin tho

Just from watching the Netflix Full Swing I think Koepka is one

One other thing that hurts LIV is the fact Tiger is playing even if it's limited

Used the LIV plus app today to watch. Worked great, can even watch the full round coverage after it's complete if you missed it on the app.

Good play today, not sure how anyone who enjoys golf doesn't find that enjoyable to watch, zero commercials is great.

Claiming to be ‘Golf, but louder,’ LIV’s sound and fury signify nothing

Quote:
The news value of its debut last year, championed with patent unease by Phil Mickelson, has long faded. What’s left is just the militant fruitcakery of Greg Norman, whose emanations from his empty luminescent head never quite form into actual substance. To hear Norman tell it, LIV 2023 would begin with a “momentous” TV deal and seven more top-20 player signees. As the second season opens this week in Mayakoba, Mexico, it’s got a laughably desperate TV pact with the CW Network, which also boasts “World’s Funniest Animals,” and no new big names. It was just more blowharding that evaporated into a few lower-level defections such as Dean Burmester and Danny Lee.
Quote:
“Golf, but louder” is one of LIV’s slogans, but all that apparently refers to is Ian Poulter’s pants by Pixar. Poulter is at least a likable star, more audience-friendly than laconic burnout cases such as Brooks Koepka or that aging inveterate scrounger Mickelson, who apparently would take checks from the slaughter of dolphins to get whole. Starting Friday in Mexico, all of them will resume crapping around in an incoherent, noncompetitive, no-cut, drama-repellant 54-hole format with locked-in appearance fees.
Quote:
From the outset, LIV was a home for buttercup-bellied moral cowards clutching at cash from a murderous regime, but it quickly has evolved into a refuge for guys who have lost their taste for competition.

You do realize why they don't have commercials?

It's great your enjoying LIV but you so in the minority. Is it on CW now ?

Yea you are right it's a terrible thing, the PGA tour is just so awesome they have to have commercials every 3 shots.

Should I care if I am? It safe to say anyone who enjoys watching golf is in the minority. I have no idea if it's on CW. I downloaded the LIV plus app and stream there.

are you going to be able to watch Saturday and Sunday rounds on the LIV Golf Plus app Shifty (or are only Friday rounds available on the app)? the reason i ask is bc i see this on LIV's official site:



of note, LIV is lying in this blurb. it has been reported that local CW affiliates do not have to air LIV coverage. in fact, i just checked my local CW schedule for today from 13:00 - 18:00 and LIV golf is not scheduled:

13:00 - 13:30 -- Impractical Jokers
13:30 - 15:30 -- Women's cbb: Southern at Bethune Cookman
13:30 - 16:00 -- HBCU Pregame Show
16:00 - 18:00 -- Men's cbb: Southern at Bethune Cookman

fwiw, i live in a predominately white area of Florida that Trump carried easily in the last election

cliffs: LIV Golf is a complete joke

Hey I agree the PGA would be better on TV with no commercials biut LIV currently has none because of the lack of a major TV deal. Will see how many commercials are on the CW broadcast.

I checked and I do get it so ill watch a little to see how it is. No question the leaderboard at the Honda doesnt interest me much

Sadly CW in western Canada is not available in HD

After round 1 the top 5 at LIV Mayakoba are Kokrak, Casey, Gooch, Ortiz, and Uihlein. Do those guys interest you?

Ok I watched about 2 hours of LIV on CW

I was shocked to realize I did not know how many known golfers left to LIV

Pluses
Players in shorts I can't fathom why the PGA has not adopted this
Leaderboard on the left I like
Broadcast team is ok

Not sure I'm onboard for the shotgun start

I'm mostly interested in whether the Crushers can hang on to take down the 4 Aces, and if my beloved Cleeks can get out of DFL.

Bryson who is on the Crushers is +3. This is where the team play aspect actually does make every round more interesting.

I think many are hard on Phil for alot of good reasons. If Phil had said Im going to LIV because they offered me a boat load of money great. I have no issue with anyone saying im going to LIV for the money. When you tell me LIV is going to be good for growing golf and im going for the future of golf you lose me

The folks that use the argument of blood money are just full of it.

Not sure if this was already posted... promotional video for the Liv teams. Cheesiness is literally off the charts but I suppose I'll give them points for having a sense of humor at least.

Whatever makes you happy. I'm not sure why people think I care if you watch LIV or not.
