Re: Golf in general
I left 11th after leaders went thru and made my way to the 15th green. By that stage theyd have been on 13th and AK had gone birdie/birdie and Rahmbo par/par and all of a sudden they were tied.
The reception he got arriving at the 15th green was that of a winner. Never really heard a crowd basically cheering for one man like that.
Saw his birdie putt on 17th and thats probably where he clinched it, Rahm narrowly missed his birdie.
He and the crowd went nuts.
What a win, 5 back and had to get past Bryson and Rahm to win it.
Think he was 1 shot off course record today

Re: Golf in general
For some reason I was drawn to AK's story when he joined LIV, I vaguely remember him from the past. I followed him on social media and read everything about his story and listened to all of his interviews. I was very disappointed when he got dropped off the tour last year, he was about to miss the cut in the promotions event and made a 12 footer on the last to make the final day and from there he qualified back.
The way he played last year I felt making it to the middle of the pack this year would be a great result, I never saw a top 5, let alone winning, coming.
Its one of the best comeback stories in any sport, he was a junkie. Its got a movie written all over it.
Hope now he can really push his way into some majors.

His interactions with the crowd in year 1 really drew people in to his corner.
I didnt realise he had visa issues before this event

Grabbed grounds for Friday and Saturday next year.

Re: Golf in general
Im actually surprised they didn't bump up the price for next year to offset the reduction in numbers, they will sell out anyway.

I was a little surprised at the costs of hospitality next year... but that might be cos im not across it generally.

The Garden on the party hole 15th is effectively the Beach club on the 12th at Grange.
Gone from about $750 a day to $1150-1200 a day.

Re: Golf in general
Oh so the corporates has gone up, which makes sense, I got a Friday GA ticket for $80 which is what I paid this year.
Interesting having the 15th as the party hole, it will be play nearly 200m for the event I would have thought, it does have the space around it that the 14th doesn't have so makes sense from that perspective.

Agreed, but it will be a lot harder to sell without a tournament in place for it.

Seeing the writing on the wall for Liv and making sure the funding doesn't fall through? The likelyhood of Liv imploding before next years event would be a fairly high.
