Golf world’s reaction to the massive amount the LIV Golf offers its team event

$50 million is a huge amount. And since it is only distributed among 48 players, each player will get a good amount despite their position on the leaderboard. This has piqued the interest of golf fans.

Comments on Twitter suggested that not many are happy with LIV Series offering the players such a massive amount. Since the Series doesn’t offer anything like OWGR points, most people found that all the event has to offer would be money and nothing more.
