The Australian debut of LIV Golf, a Saudi-backed league that has acquired golfers from the PGA Tour, is currently being met with mixed reviews.
The Grange Golf Club did not make the best impression.
According to advertisersan Australia-based outlet, the course will be affected for “six months” from a tournament at the end of April featuring a ‘watering hole’ in 12th place.
Some club members were reportedly unhappy amid the compliments surrounding the event. According to Golf Digest.
Videos from the weekend show that the environment for the Adelaide tournament was tumultuous, especially at the par 3 ‘watering hole’.
But photos from the weekend also showed an enormous amount of debris on the track, including containers of liquid flying through the air.
At one point, Brooks Koepka’s younger brother, Chase Koepka, sank with a hole-in-one and was showered with hundreds of cups and cans by spectators who surrounded the hole.

According to Sports IllustratedDJs also chugged drinks out of their shoes during the event.
The general manager of Grange Golf Club told The Advertiser that emails, phone calls and letters were sent to the club congratulating them on “hosting the event.”
