Think it was the 12th hole in final round he got into all sorts. Didn't take a drop, played 2 from the bushes and salvaged a bogey in the end...
Was certainly entertaining viewing

I've got Tickets to the beach club all 3 days.
Ticket price was $545 per day, then you should see the taxes added Faaaaaaaaark Me, what a rort.

My lad, whos doing an apprenticeship at Grange sent me a video of the rough literally 1m off the fairway and wow jesus its deep! apparently they're letting it grow out for LIV.

I'm playing there tomorrow so i'll see it first hand.

Apparently that was an error on the US ticketing site and you'll get a refund. Check into it mate.

Heard the same about 2 weeks ago that the rough is growing out.
Hopefully you don't lose any balls in there, cos apparently they just disappear... :shock:

Going by that story, looks like going to be hard to watch any play on that hole unless have ticket in one of the seven marquees.

The other day they had all these people measuring up for the Grandstands etc to make sure have good view, amazing amount of work.

The hole has been closed from now, we play the spare 37th hole until after LIV finished.

I'd be guessing it's around $10k for a spot. If you got Cam or Phil then I'd jump at it..... if I had the cash

Works a treat.

US TV audience.
Get golfers off the course by 1pm when punters aren't too pissed.
Keep punters there all day drinking now they're pissed.

Good guess, $11517 or $30716 for group of three.

If you got Dustin Johnson or Brooks Koepka and had the money be worth it, but what if you got a dud! You get 9 holes with two different pros, but still risky!
