Your Opinion
I enjoy watching it as much as the PGAT, just treat them as different viewing experiences.
Still is ?
It's in its embryonic state, needs time to have a chance to grow.

PGA Tour give in to Jon Rahm demand after Masters champion linked to LIV Golf
Jon Rahm had previously called on the PGA Tour to introduce more bathroom facilities at events, and following an update, it appears the Spaniard appears to have got his way

LIV Bot, (But Not As Big As Mel) ?
He went to LiV as the shotgun start takes away the luck of which side of the draw he gets.
It’s a miracle that the weather during LiV events stays the same for the whole round to make it fair for everyone.

It's getting embarrassing for DPWT. Oosthuizen clear favourite to win again this week.

Im rooting for Canter after his nightmare last week.
Showing some character to come straight back after such a blow as manner of that playoff defeat.
Im pretty sure if you consider that more deeply you will find that they dont. They have nothing to compare it to. Where the PGAT or DP were alternatives, LIV was shunned and avoided. And even Australia is a misleading stretch. You mean Adelaide (even they dont claim to be all of Australia). Adelaidians are no different to people elsewhere who know LIV is a farce as a serious sporting event. But when its the only game in town, they were starving for any morsel offered. Beggars cant be choosers. They didnt choose 'the product'. The product chose them. So quite a misrepresentation to suggests Australians love LIV.
But clearly not enough money :
1- they didnt attract enough quality players to make LIV a credible top level tour
2- despite whatever money was on offer, it is a stark indictment of the resistance to LIV and every thing it represents, sporting and beyond, that so few top level golfers joined them. And that astronomical money was required for them to overcome what must be very strong qualms.

I live in OZ and as yet have not met one golfer here who does not like LIV.....
and I travel extensively.....
In March I went from Perth to Melbourne via Adelaide, then up to Sydney and Newcastle and back to Perth all via road,
traveled over 10,000 kms, playing golf along the way, did not meet one person upset by LIV.
Any view on why the Aussies that you have met are out of step with the rest of the world ?
It has been rejected everywhere else. As posted earlier, they almost can't give it away. Whether to spectators at the events, TV networks, viewers even when making it free to net, sports journalism reporting actual play, let alone sponsors or commercial interests beyond what the PIF pumps into it, or players who clearly have big issues with it, and only those who are bought off with huge sums, overcome their objections and defect. What is different about Aussies ?

We have been starved of seeing top golfers for years, our own and overseas stars as well, all caused by PGAT creating the wrap around tour in my opinion, so the first chance we get to see these guys in action, people jumped at the chance.
Adelaide again is set to be sold out, I was going to go, but will be in England instead, two day drive for me as well, have talked to friends from my club and others and they said this years event was great.

Louis Oosthuzen introduced on the 1st tee at DPWT events as playing out of Stinger Golf Club 
In your mind. You have a blind hatred of LIV and believe the rest of the world agrees with you. As with most things in life, it isn't as clear cut as that.
You'll note, although clearly not, that people on here are already looking forward to going to the JCB club next season to watch the event there. Maybe take a break from the anger

Wonder if he's got the spot of travelling reserve again on LIV next year - he deserves it, if not arguably deserving a full spot in a team.
A good result today would back that up.

Ping must hate it as well - they're rumoured to be the next major brand to get onboard.
Backsticks has been on ignore in the settings for many, many months for me - clearly wants a reaction rather than a discussion.

Leaving LIV completely out of this but that's one hell of a car trip. John O Groats to Lands End is 970km in a straight line or 1350km by road. You've driven the equivalent of the length of the UK eight times in a single month. Australia is a big place.
Don’t let Greta know about all that carbon!

Once drove from Melbourne to Sydney in the day - and it took all day - not an insignificant journey..
Then you look at the size of the country in comparison - it really is a huge expanse of land.

For me James it's impressive because the Liv Golfers make up such a tiny percentage of the fields yet are featuring so prominently..

He’s a top player (despite being on LIV
) against a lessor field, (only one player in the top 100). It would be embarrassing for him if he wasn’t up at the pointy end.
