[JungleJimbo]

Nice interview with Greg Norman (timestamp around 2hr10-15m into the R1 Livestream) w.r.t. wooing Anthony Kim to return to pro golf.

Full on shank. 2nd one today.

At least he tucked his shirt in - should make people happy.

[dcmidnight]

Never mind, just saw on the live coverage, back to un-tucked

[Soloman1]

went untucked again...

call me old fashioned, but tying your shoes might help.

 

[tacklingdummy]

The AK shank was unsettling, but he did bounce back with birdie. Rahm had a shank at LIV Las Vegas, so the pros are human. 

 

Is Su Ann Heng and AK lost sister and brother twins? 😂🤣

[Golfinfloridaafter40]

I'm rooting for him, but the untucked shirt and untied shoes are a very bad look.

It fits in pretty well with the music that you can hear on every hole. I honestly didnt mind when it was a party hole or a DJ at the finish - its not my thing at all but it was different. But when its so loud that it distracts you from watching the golf, thats really something.

LIV Golf featured group coverage is terrible. No sound. One cameraman and one tee box camera that looks like a cell phone quality wise. 
 

AK holding strong so far. Looks a little rusty off the tee. Driver numbers 168-171 speed. Nothing special on the shots so far through 4 holes. He’s played both par 5s already in the round. can’t see him shooting higher than 74/75 though. 

Coverage is excellent on youtube!  A lot better than ESPN+

[bscinstnct]

I been watchin 15 minutes where’s AK?!

 

rip off

 

WTF this music?? Is bad enough but it’s so loud! 
 

Whats this music now? They playing multiple songs all over, is like Ibiza club but with no people and just some old dudes in shorts

 

How can anyone watch this 🤣

 

Oh here is AK! He in last place 🙄

Especially on a 38 year old man.

Some of you guys have a problem with the music but the players love it. Maybe Rahm being an exception, but as I have said many times, I drove the players at the Orlando event and asked them about the music.  100% of them that I asked said they liked it better than the silence on the PGA Tour.

Couldn't care less about an untucked shirt, but the untied shoes are killing me. At that point it seems like you're sacrificing performance for style. I guess it's a bold statement... if you can shoot a 65.

 

[dcmidnight]

Well the good news is the players are the only ones out there today so there is no one else to bother with the music.

If Denard Robinson could play an entire football game at Michigan with untied shoes, AK is probably fine.

[tx_bayou]

Looks to be about the start many expected. Hope we see him improve as he continues to play but definitely showing the 12 years off.

Who's the music for? Do the players want it?

[bscinstnct]

Hey hey, he broke 80!

 

Not bad, if he bears down, he can make it out there

 

Just needs a haircut and tuck his shirt, get the dope belt buckle thing going again!

 

 

[Cliffy2020]

Glad I didn’t get up early.

[dcmidnight]

Unrelated but I'm sad at whats happened to Bubba, guy was one of my favorites to watch.

I'd imagine it's difficult to stay hungry with all that upfront money. That, and having seen quite a few LIV tournaments now, the perceived competitiveness of the league falls somewhere between your garden-variety Thursday night scratch bowling league, and the Member/Guest at the local club. It seems like it would be tough to stay sharp in that atmosphere. For Bubba and his well-documented attention issues, even more so.

[aus10KC]

How much prep did he put into coming back? It seems like he lost all his speed and needs to spend a lot of time getting it back.

[TheMoneyShot]

Pretty much what everyone thought, a couple shanks and currently in last place.  At least AK is back though. 

[Maine Golfer]

I give him credit, broke 80.  

[TheMoneyShot]

No AK Diamond encrusted belt either, very disappointing…

[drbonesvt]

Per Me the Taylor Gooch of  wrx , does LIV get an * Every Tournament for missing good golf ?

I wonder if the other players are jealous that AK got his own signature logo AK “LIV” hat and shirt deal?
