I watched LIV for the first time this weekend just because I had played the course. Golf shots are golf shots, so I guess more is better than less.
I did find it a little distracting trying to figure out their leaderboard when it went to a particular player, although I mostly got the hang of it eventually. I guess if I watch more I would get used to it.
Not too crazy about the shotgun start aspect. Varner was flirting with 59. Had he shot it, he would have finished on #13 in front of 10's of people probably. That takes away some of the drama for me, for whatever reason.
Team aspect holds no interest for me.
