    backinit I sounds like a show about how it was achieved would be interesting.

      Taki27 The 'team' aspect was also stolen from LIV. Remember those quaint days when the PGA pros thought the LIV was bogus because it wasn't 'real golf' and because golf isn't a team sport?

              Taped it......why are they not showing flight, #'s, etc🤔

              We'll soon find out if it's going to last. The folks buying commercials will help dictate it's fate.

              I thought I heard that Tiger was playing in next Tuesday's game. Maybe he can actually win something.

                I missed it. Didn't know when or where it was on. Guess I must not have been terribly interested. 🙃

                sdandrea1 Reported 919,000 watched first day. Not sure how this number measures nowadays but seems a lot when on a fee service channel (ESPN+)

                    Bravopilot I read 1.3 million. Either way, it's a pretty good start. Either number is larger than the usual LIV audience.

                      It's a whole different game and more entertaining when the match is close like tonite!
                      Tiger's team against Rory's....Tom Kim was made for this format.👍

                        EDIT: Yup it sure was…well shucks

                        Wait what? It is on tonight?

                            I have ESPN+ that is an add on to Hulu...doesn't show it.

                            TGL is probably not for the so called 'purist golfer', but if you like to
                            think out of the box a little, you'll still see some pretty good golf....
                            And most of these guys took it very seriously, it's a totally different atmosphere
                            that took them out of their typical 9-5 comfort zone.....a pretty cool concept! IMO
                            And there was a shit load of money involved!

                              Agreed…more so than I thought they would…and as you said…a different concept that still gets them fired up to include the fans in the stadium…especially during the playoffs

                                The championship match was actually fun to watch. There were some great golf shots. I haven't watched enough of
                                this years shows to really know what's going on some of the time. The "Hammer" flags were one of the things I didn't
                                know about but figured out they were kind of like a press in a match. I had seen bits of some of the previous matches
                                but wasn't overly impressed. I found it difficult to keep up with what was going on and what hole they were playing, etc.
