Ticket sales for Adelaide were already equal or better than last year. This probably guarantees another sellout each day!

I reckon it would have been a sell out anyway. A lot of fomo out there from last year.
This just makes it a guarantee.

Think they've been imploding slowly but surely the longer LIV stayed around.
Interesting to see if they make any changes. The PGA created elevated events etc

How good is the PNC Championship?

Not fair though, Tiger has about 30 kids to choose from to partner him. :lol:

Now looks like his best mate, Tyrell Hatton, has joined his team, got bigger offer to get him over the line. Some good signings that's for sure!

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 :D

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.

Grange member I think mate.

no riff raff in the Sky box!

i'll have a gander at the fan villa/merch tent early and maybe the practice putting area depending on the crowd.

last year i was around the 18th green for the most part and it was quite good. only a few times did crowds come through and thats with Smith and Mickelson mainly.

think i need to have a look at the course map and find a few spots.

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 :shock:

Yes my bad, you have mentioned you're a member but I just completely forgot.

The rumour I heard is the golf club want LIV to pay for a new clubhouse and The initial deal didn't include a course hire fee for LIV to pay.
