Fans go overboard with their predictions

The fans’ responses varied, as everyone almost had a different ‘hot’ prediction to mention The array of interesting comments reflects the diverse opinions and expectations of golf fans.

One user made the prediction based on the assumption that LIV Golf players will still be eligible to play in the four major championships. He wrote, “Liv players takе 50% of thе majors.” However, it’s not impossible; they can participate if they meet the qualification criteria.

One of the most surprising and unlikely comments was from a user who predicted Tiger Woods would join the LIV Golf League in 2024. He simply wrote,Tigеr Joining’. Notably, there were speculations that the 15x major winner was reportedly offered $700 million from the league, which he rejected.
