I bet the 16th hole bar owners love it ?? when there’s a hole in one. No way I’d be chucking my beer? and then having to queue up with all them hoodlums ?

I’ve been invited to play in a pro-am at TPC Scottsdale next year (which is the week after this event) it includes us going to watch this event on the Saturday… half of me wants to go and experience it, the other half isn’t sure he wants to be stuck in amongst all the whoopin & hollerin ? Thankfully there’s no crowds on 16 when we would be playing it, although the stands are still up.

May be he enjoys watching golf (it being his hobby), but not the behaviour that’s going on in the stands?

Or may be you just like to moan about LPs posts?

We’ll let the audience decide!
Another for the ignore list

Before you disappear and I don't have to read any more of your rubbish, it's a one off and the players know what is in store but yet seem more than happy to play. The PGA are happy with the publicity and WM as main sponsor getting huge coverage. Plenty of golf on the other 17 holes and this is a once a year thing. You know before you watch what's going to happen. Off you pop into ignore land

Does everyone who questions something you say get put on your ignore list?
See his history of replies to me. Not worth me bothering with. Will always find fault or have sly digs. Done wasting my time with people like that so easier to ignore. Has nothing to positive to say so why bother reading his replies. Simple as that

I’m struggling to understand how seeing a tweet on it means I’m watching it ?‍♂️

But as you say - I’m sure some of the golf is enjoyable , but not a fan of the beer throwing etc and certainly not of players throwing tops off etc ( don’t really watch the US Golf anyway )

I wonder how many are there just to get smashed

I've just gone on the US PGA website and counted 48 tournaments in this season, 20-21. So, that's 47 regular tournaments and 1 hole at one tournament that is different, that involves player / fan participation. It's hardly taking over golf.

Regular service will be resumed next week for all of those outraged.

Moving on, would anyone like to see more of these types of events? eg including a hole where everyone can get battered for a week

You're a naughty person ?.

Is it Denmark where the players danced through to a particular hole? Just checked, they had to walk through a beer tent between 2 holes. Different players had different reactions but Jamie Donaldson did some Michael Jackson moves. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, good publicity for the ET.
