They talk about the logistics of attending the event, the curated fan experience, and the contrast in atmosphere to the PGA Tour's (and adversary but future partner?). Matt shares his observations about the fan engagement activities, the music, the fireworks, and designated areas for kids. Overall, Matt describes the event as "a spectacle" and highlights the unique aspects of the experience. The fan experience at LIV Golf is focused on creating an immersive, party-like atmosphere rather than solely on great golf shots. The walk-up music, live music stages, and the Birdie Shack contribute to the ruscus environment. The team aspect is real and a key component of the fan experience, with fans fully buying into their chosen team. However, focusing on the party atmosphere may lead to a short-term interest, and LIV Golf will need to find ways to keep fans engaged in the long term. The golf itself felt unserious, with distractions and a lack of focus on the shots. Some players embraced the fan interaction, while others seemed visibly perturbed. The conversation explores the potential future of LIV golf events and their impact on the sport of golf. The hosts discuss the concept of team golf and its potential to attract new fans and create a more engaging experience. They also touch on the role of meritocracy in professional golf and the need for a balance between entertainment and the integrity of the game.
