Professional Golf

[D-S]

Bryson, Rahm and Anthony Kim in the final group on the final day at what has quickly become one of the greatest golf tournaments in the world.

I guess it all depends how you describe great.

- Headlines across the world?
- Largest TV audience?
- Largest attendance?
- Most pivotal for the sport?
- The only thing people are talking about at the club/range?
- Transcending the sport?
- The best of the best battling for the ultimate title?
- Most history or historic?
- Career defining for the victor?

Not sure what other criteria could be used but I’m sure there are some.

I agree with all the above.
I would also say that here we are on a golf forum and there is only 1 person talking about it.
Compare that with how many were talking about the tournaments last week and that gives an indication in my opinion.

Oh and the Australian Ripper GC chasing down Rahms Legion XIII in the team competition.

I’ll be setting the alarm early to catch as much of that one as I can.

Come on , stop being silly

Just enjoy it without going silly

When people are at 19 under after three rounds on other tours it’s derided for being a birdie fest etc etc etc

I’m sure the Aussies will be enjoying because they love their sport but don’t go over the top

Really hard to avoid Liv when the tournaments get discussed outside of the Liv thread

This thread is for all golf tournaments regardless of the tour

It was agreed last year that the golf aspect of LIV could be discussed in this thread, with the LIV thread being used to discuss the other aspects of the tour.

Some really good things being said about Anthony Kim here from Bryson and especially Rahm.

To think this guy thought you still dropped from shoulder height when he played his 1st LIV event a few years back.

Good win for Charley Hull. She just needs to do it in a major now

So is it possible to have a dedicated thread for the PGA and DPWT?

I guess if you really wanted but if mainly gets talked about on here

There used to be, when Liv first appeared and strong controversy followed it. Time has passed, Liv is now part of the professional golf world. It should be entirely possible to chat about all pro golf on this one thread without it becoming them and us.

There is a separate Liv thread for some of the wider issues regarding that tour but this one is about tournament golf across the tours and Liv is part of that.

As is shown by post 6,629, this thread also covers the ladies tour. All pro golf ...........
