"Coming to a PGAT event near you" - Fans react to the flash mob on the first tee at LIV London

The LIV Golf League has completed one year and is back to where it all started, the Centurion Club, London.

However, before a round of golf, fans saw a round of dance! The 2023 season's ninth event saw a flash mob break out to perform a dance on the first tee.

A Twitter user named Mike McAllister shared the flash mob's dance video on his handle. Here is the video of the same:

Fans quickly jumped into the comment section to react to the flash mob breakout dance at LIV Golf London. A fan sarcastically, on behalf of the flash mob, wrote:

"Coming to a PGAT event near you."

Another fan explained that the crew who worked on the golf course must be crying (through a Batman crying graphic).

A fan feels that the flash mob must be having fun. He shared a graphic in which people are seen dancing.

A number of fans were not so happy with flash mobs entering the first tee and dancing to stop the play. They were furious and wrote several comments against LIV Golf.

Here are some of those comments:

@thegolfeditor I can't actually tell if they are just trying to just put on a parody version of a golf event at this point.

Fans even slammed the flash mobs for entering the first tee. They felt it would have spoilt the green, and the crew, who worked hard to prepare it, must be having a hard time.

@thegolfeditor Oh that’s great for the course. I’m sure the maintenance crew LOVED this.

Where do they find the clowns running these events. I’m sure it’s one of the players wives or someone who’s never worked a real job. If someone working for me did this they’d be walked out immediately.
