"Who really cares"? is an interesting question, because in America, so far, virtually no one does (see: TV ratings, massive ticket giveaways etc...). Which is why I've said they should lean into Australia and other non-serviced markets. Even if the level of intensity is lower than most mid-amateur events, the star power is higher than people in Australia will ever see. So for the first time since its inception not only did LIV get a good crowd, it was a crowd they didn't give away the majority of their tickets too. This should be their business model for the foreseeable future. Hell even somewhere like here, where a PGA event is unlikely to ever come, I could see them drawing well for a LIV event at Mickelson National. Go get blasted drunk, see some star players putting in a C+ effort, see some C-List country star or DJ playing a concert, I could see it doing alright.
