LIV to play year end championships at Bolingbrook Golf Course in Chicago

An average muni course with a $75 tee time
Look, LIV needs to punt America. It’s clear it’s not wanted here and they have success overseas. Lean into that. I think with their unlimited budget they could do so much better with management and marketing especially

I legitimately think they would punt America if the PIF did not want to have dealings in the US.
It clearly hasn’t been a successful league as of now, but we still don’t know what the merger looks like so probably too early to say with certainty how things will finish for the league and PIF in general.

I wouldn't say that makes a course terrible. Memorial averages around $75 if you merge resident and non resident fees, and that one seems to be universally praised by the podcasts I listen to. Having said that, I know nothing about Bolingbrook.

I mean that really doesn't matter. Memorial Park is under $50 and the pros raved about it. There's a lot of fair things to criticize LIV about, but they actually play some pretty awesome courses each week. No idea about this course, but they aren't playing bad courses.

The endless money let's them keep playing in the US. But I agree, they definitely do much better overseas, which is one of their goals honestly. I feel like they have to keep some tournaments in the states to help stay relevant in the minds of US golf fans though, even if they are losing a ton of money. Which they clearly don't care if they do.

If PIF put up millions for my home course to host, i'd bet they could get it looking great for a tournament. I also get trying to get close to downtown Chi.

Everyone is hating on the course, but a bunch of pga tour courses would be $70 on golfnow if they didn't have tour money in maintenance and a brand based on the tour going there. TPC Scottsdale, TPC Louisiana, Memorial, PGA National, and Silverado are hardly great golf courses.

That's more expensive than Bethpage Black. What's your point? How about waiting to see what the course looks like for a tournament setup?
Most courses with a relationship with the PGA, LPGA, Champions, or Korn Ferry aren't likely to do business with LIV out of solidarity with the PGA. Another selection of courses won't do business with LIV because muh blood money. That leaves a very small group of courses to choose from.
I saw some pictures of this course and it looks like it could be setup nicely. Has an island green for one of the holes.

Are all former PGA Tour venues in the US. Doral is one of the great championship courses in golf.
Bedminster was supposed to host the 2022 PGA Championship.
It's been hit and miss not all trash.

I am shocked they are playing there. I would practice on their driving range all the time. The course certainly isn’t terrible but this is bizarre any way you look at it.
I will give them credit tho they have kept their prices reasonable. I can’t play a muni in NJ for $75

I wouldn't say that.
I expect the LIV Houston tournament to be packed with people. It has always been a golf crazy area, throw in the June heat with adult beverages and it should be quite the party.
