“That's dope”; “PGA Tour could never” – Fans impressed by LIV Golf’s new elevation graphics on broadcast

Since its inception, LIV Golf has consistently tried to bring interesting features to its broadcasts. At LIV Golf UK, they introduced a new elevation graphic that is receiving praise from fans as well as golf pundits.

The LIV Golf UK began on Friday, July 26, at the JCB Golf and Country Club in Rocester, England. This is the eleventh event on the league's schedule and is the first time the LIV's UK event is not being played in London.

On Friday, NUCLR Golf shared a clip of LIV's new elevation graphics feature, which debuted this week during LIV Golf UK.

Fans online praised the Saudi-backed circuit for the innovation and also mocked the PGA Tour for falling behind. Here's a look at some reactions:

"That's dope," one fan wrote.

"PGA Tour could NEVER," another fan posted.

"Credit to LIV they have done such a good job with innovation, and are able to do so due to starting from scratch and having a blank checkbook with no profit necessary… but yet people still don’t watch it… what does that say about the actual format and players they have?" this fan commented.

"LIV is so far ahead of the curve it’s not even funny. Makes PGA look like silly," another fan wrote.

"Let's work on less music now and less scrolling on the leaderboard like a bad gyroscope," one user remarked.

"Give it a month before the PGA copies it and claims its "never before seen on TV'," another fan joked.
