Was this worth watching?

Good question. It was very interesting for about the first half hour just to see how it all worked and the crowd was pretty wild at the beginning. I think it definitely would be fun to go see live but I think they have a ways to go to make it a better TV product. Announcing was only ok and they didn't show you the features of every hole before the guys teed off. Some of them they did, other times they just showed players huddled by a screen talking about the hole. They had some music playing in the background during some of the singles competition holes which was fun. They should do more of that.
Ultimately, it was hard to judge. I was into it at the beginning and got bored quickly. Felt it was kind of long. Maybe it should be a one hour product instead of two. But the match was so bad. Bay golf club destroyed the NY golf club, so that took away from it as there was no drama or tension at all. You knew the result pretty much after the first four holes.
I will watch again and hope for a better match and see if that keeps my interest all the way through.
If I had to rate it I would say 6/10.

Is this the one that other golfers were buying into? To me it seems iffy mixing simulated and live sports
reply
Yes Tiger and Rory cofounded it. A lot of other athletes and celebrities are also investors.

Imma have to turn it on I guess and see how it is. I'm on a minoroty here but I do love the LIV Tour and think the PGA could learn so much from them. The Waste Management stop on the PGA is a hit for a reason

I am curious. I think it will be really cool or really stupid.
