Grange is the only club with enough space to accommodate the tournament setup.Eagles2014 wrote:mighty_tiger_79 wrote:Eagles2014 wrote:Was great day at the LIV Pro am. Able to walk wherever and be within touching distance of the players, won’t get anywhere near this close to them over the three days. Rahm was excellent and had so much banter with us, undoubtedly favourite player now.
Apparently yesterday Tyrell Hatton had a Hole in one on 14th and was cursing himself for wasting it, only Tyrell could carry on like that
Course looks immaculate, so many more stands and drink/food vans appear more also, so hopefully they cope with the extra crowds and learn from last year.
You a volunteer?
Hopefully the crowds spread out through the course.
As Booney said, member of Grange. They only let Members in today, a little sweetener I think as originally nobody was allowed in.
The original deal was LIV four years in Adelaide, but only two confirmed at Grange. There is a vote of Members after if they want the Club to bid to host the next two years. I don’t think any of the other “big three” clubs have the area big enough to host, so Grange the only option.
But push by large group of Members to vote NO. Sick of the disruption. Basically two months affected with short holes, only 16 holes, or closed altogether and lots pi55ed off. Mine is 6 day member at $3600, so that’s $600 affected for instance.
Personally I think the positives the Club gets far outweigh the negatives and am all for keeping LIV here, but get the feeling it may be closer vote than I thought few months ago
Doesn't matter the club, there are always whingers. At West Lakes, people used to get irate about the club accepting weddings that included the ceremony near the 9th green, and therefore, for safety it was closed for the day. I played with the president at the time and he was complaining about the whingers. I responded with provided the competitors for the day were appropriately advised before they teed off.
