‘Big Stretch There’: Golf Fans Left Fuming As Serious Allegations Over PGA Tour Involving LIV Golf Go Viral
While various sports have seen an uptick post-pandemic, golf has been rejuvenated like never before. Viewership and social media interactions have gone over the roof in this new world, which has been a sign of good things for every golf body around, including the PGA Tour and LIV Golf.
However, with both organizations celebrating new benchmarks earlier this year, are there any claims of one copying the other? A well-experienced Twitter user certainly felt so, which led to a sea of debate surrounding the issue.
Has the PGA Tour been caught copying LIV’s tactics?
The preceding week witnessed yet another clash between the two golf bodies, whose feud extends beyond golf courses. While the PGA Tour conducted the AT&T Byron Nelson in Dallas, LIV Golf returned to the United States for an event in Tulsa.
Both had their own sets of highs and lows, but a common occurrence caught the eye of a close observer. A Twitter user, Mark Lye, has claimed that the PGA Tour is showing more shots than usual in its live coverage, a strategy used by the Saudi-backed league.
