TGL "golf"

Lol. Wtf is this?

Am I dreaming or having a stroke?

I genuinely can't fathom what the point of this is... Maybe the golf types amongst us can explain???

It’s the golf version of crickets T20. I can only assume you are not a golfer so strongly suggest you change channels

Right now it feels like a decent idea, badly executed. It hasn’t helped that the first three matchups were walkover wins, so there’s been very little competitive tension. The ball tracking they’re using seems ‘off’, and they’re missing a lot of the more entertaining/charismatic players, who are with LIV. As with LIV, the whole team element is weird & forced & feels like a massive missed opportunity. The flat atmosphere has been the biggest problem of all. It comes across like an episode of Gladiators. They need to get advice from the PDC about how to create an atmosphere, conduct walk ons etc. I hope they learn and adapt. There’s a good event trying to get out but right now it’s very stiff and corporate. Feels like they’re trying so hard to make $$$ they’ve forgotten that you make $$$ when you’ve got something that people care about. Personally I would be giving out free beer to liven the crowd up and looking at restructuring the teams into something that people care about… organize by country or continent, have a team of YouTube golfers etc.
