‘S**t Kicking Act’: Golf Fans Furious As PGA Tour’s Elevated Event Drops Teaser About a Major Announcement

The onset of the upcoming season has the golf world on its toes. Following its traditions, The Players Championship has made a conscious effort to keep its fans in the loop for all upcoming information regarding the event set to take place in 2024 from March 12 to March 17.

This announcement has to do with the custom of having a military appreciation day and concert at the famous event. However, this attempt by the PGA Tour-backed championship has not received reactions from the golf world, as per their expectations.

The Players Championship’s teaser leaves the golf world stunned

The Players Championship is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated events on the calendar. With a winning purse of millions of dollars, this elevated event surely adds value to the game in more ways than one. One such initiative is the concert that takes place along with the military appreciation day.

Recently, the PGA Tour-backed event has indicated that they will be making a big announcement regarding the concert tomorrow. There is no doubt that drama is a guarantee when it comes to this particular event held at the luscious greens of the TPC Sawgrass.

Following its precedent of presenting the golf world with an event so special that it is remembered for years, an attempt at creating buzz for the concert was made. The post was captioned, “Concert announcement tomorrow!”

However, the attempt was not as big of a success as it was intended to be due to the ongoing atmosphere in the golf world as Jon Rahm has made his move to LIV Golf. Internal disputes, such as golfers not being happy with the management within the PGA Tour, are also a matter of concern, as highlighted by the reactions in this post.

Will the PGA Tour’s flagship event be able to maintain its former glory this coming March? The feedback on the concert’s announcement does not entirely rule in favor of this.

Fans express their views on the pre-concert announcement

The outbreak of the famous news garnered varied opinions throughout the golf world. While some expressed a ray of excitement, others were left furious at the outbreak of this news in the already tensed-up environment that the PGA Tour is currently in.

Fans were quick to express their frustration upon the outbreak of this pre-emptive announcement. They termed this act “mediocre,” and a “sh*t kicking country act.” They went on to declare that this is not what the veterans want, but a simple excalibration of what the tour wants.

The sarcasm train had quite a lot of passengers on this post. One fan had a weird yet hysterical suggestion for the concert.

In just a few simple words, some users expressed their frustration with the matter. They made satirical remarks upon the announcement of a forthcoming announcement.

Not sure whether the comment was sarcastic or a genuine wish, one golf netizen expressed their wit-filled wish to see a star that is not there in the world anymore.

However, one of the netizens was quick to express what seemed to be their excitement for the event. They started their response by thanking God and giving a sneak peek at their excitement.

Hopping on the sarcasm train, yet another fan did not fail to bring to the forefront how this will not force the PIF in favor of the PGA Tour. 

One of the fans of the game made sure to remind the championship to read the room before making such announcements. Their warning went a long way.

Another inquisitive fan was quick to ask the PGA Tour’s subset how they pay their bills. This rhetorical question led to many raised eyebrows across the golf world.

All in all, the famous platform was filled with back-to-back reactions from fans throughout the world of golf. The golf world stands in wait for the major announcement hinted at by The Players. Only time will tell what’s next on the charts for the game in these tumultuous times.
