Well that was unexpected.

Wow. The jeering from the crowd is typically in good fun, but this has gotten vitriolic.

Sadly, decorum in all aspects of society is a thing of the past.

[Winsor_Pilates]

Golf crowds in general are getting weird.
Awkward, dorky guys who yell dumb things and think they're clever.

[Flabbibulin]

I dunno. I think its great. Montrealers are always gonna go wild, particularly when its against the US. But the close proximity to the States has allowed for a decent number of Americans to drive up and even things out. Mix that with alcohol and Tom Kim working up the crowd.

[Whynotnow]

Americans pulling it out. International had their shot to make this a tie going into tomorrow but could be 3 down now and singles is a big disadvantage.

[Whynotnow]

International choked down the stretch today. Down four. Gonna be a quick day tomorrow me thinks.

[Flabbibulin]

That sucks. And for the most punchable guy on the US to possibly ice it

Edit- the Kim pairing seemed like they were pulling off so many miracles, but still not enough. The US is just so strong in this event.

[Strange Brew]

When Curry does the night-night thing, they usually win the game.

The crowds are a little rowdy but at least with the event in Canada, people can’t complain about American fans.

Svensson is leading the new PGA Tour event in Utah.

Course looks pretty sweet. $280 for a tee time.

The Showdown; Liv vs PGA event is tomorrow.

Don't think it will be televised legally in Canada though.

Are you F****ing kidding me? What an absolute joke. You're sure about that? I can't believe an event this big wouldn't be shown internationally. Are they that stupid?

I'll video chat you and put my phone in the cup holder so you can watch. Will look like this:

[jayswin]

Much appreciated!!

[Flabbibulin]

Grant Horvat has a round with Tiger Woods coming out tomorrow. Pretty unreal. Youtube golf is now what Liv had originally hoped to be.

[DoubleK]

The field at Kapalua was gross.

PGA tour viewership numbers last year were even grosser.

If the PGA doesn't reconcile with LIV soon, tournaments are going to fold. It will get ugly and it will happen fast. TV deals are coming up soon and the networks are going to demand huge discounts.

Well, TGL is on now so let's see if this format is the saviour of the PGA entertainment.
Anyone else watching?

I watched a few minutes. It looks like it would be fun to be there playing, but I didn’t think much of it. Come to think of it, I don’t even know how fun the playing would be.

I just wanted to see what they put together from a technology standpoint which was really cool. But in terms of the actual product I didn't see anything that was compelling enough to make me want to watch more matches. I just don't see the appeal of watching the pros play sim golf.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Be more fun if they were drunk or on drugs, like most of us at sims.
