Years of hassle, back-and-forth sniping and "will they/won't they" debate came to a head Thursday when the LIV Golf Invitational Series finally teed off at.

The PGA Tour announced suspensions for the 17 current and former members who played in London, less than an hour into the round. With Dustin Johnson headlining the London Invitational and Bryson DeChambeau and Patrick Reed set to join the group at the second event, we know there will be no shortage of high-wattage stars. Jerry Foltz said nothing so far had “made anybody regret the decision they made to be a part of this.” OK then. When Talor Gooch landed his opening tee shot on a par 3 to about 12 feet, the analysts gushed over how close he came to a hole-in-one. The 51-year-old could have fared much worse given the long layoff and the massive number of eyes on his return. But he rebounded on the back nine with birdies at the par-4 12th and the par-5 13th and 15th holes.

Phil Mickelson marked his competitive return to action by getting within four strokes of the early lead at the opening event of the Saudi-backed LIV Golf ...

"I struck the ball really well and didn't putt very well. I really struggled with the putter the front, the first six, seven holes but I played really well and fought back after a double on nine to shoot one under and get myself right in it on the first day." "It was fun for me to get back out playing.

As LIV Golf launches its inaugural tournament, the PGA Tour announced that stars such as Dustin Johnson no longer will be allowed in its events.

The fans are going to love it, all the players who are here are going to love it.” Meanwhile, the new league — whose LIV name refers to the Roman numeral of its 54-hole events and rhymes with “give” — struck a cheery tone during its first round. “ … This certainly is not the last word on this topic.” It has raised purses, enhanced end-of-season bonus money and introduce the Player Impact Program, which funnels money to stars based on a combination of performance and off-course promotion. The tour, though, cannot compete financially with the deep pockets of LIV Golf or its guaranteed money for appearances, which violates the PGA Tour’s entrenched pay-for-performance ethos. “You probably have more questions,” Monahan wrote in his Thursday memo to players. They’ll therefore expect the players to behave much as they would do in any other tournament.,” said University of Sussex politics professor Dan Hough, who specializes in integrity and corruption in sports. “But they can’t demand the same PGA TOUR membership benefits, considerations, opportunities and platform as you. LIV Golf can offer guaranteed money on par with athletes in other sports, even if many believe the money is tainted by alleged atrocities of a repressive Saudi government. The rebel tour has no designs on turning a short-term profit, aiming instead to gain an instant foothold in the sport. If the general public are confused about who is playing where and what tournament’s on this week and who is, you know, ‘Oh, he plays there, okay, and he doesn’t get into these events.’ It just becomes so confusing. They want to be seen as supporters of a game that a lot of people like to watch and play.

Still, he battled to get under par late and is positioned to make a run toward the top of the leaderboard on Friday and Saturday.

But the bigger problem, the one that will be hardest to fix, is also the simplest: After six months of promising innovation, LIV Golf’s first broadcast was decidedly normal. In many ways, Thursday served as a tryout for LIV Golf’s broadcast team, which is headed by Steve Beim, former U.S. Open and “The Match” producer. Instead, the first LIV Golf Invitational series round was blasted out to the world on YouTube, Facebook and the LIV Golf website … for free. On Thursday, LIV went live for the first time, presenting its vision for golf’s future in a neon-tinted shade of lime green. He had just accepted a new role as a broadcast consultant for his good friend Greg Norman at LIV Golf, and it was his job to bring golf broadcasting into the 21st century. “The LIV Golf broadcast will be unlike anything fans have seen before,” Will Staeger, LIV’s chief media officer, said in a release announcing the new product.

The leaderboard — a black and highlighter-green rail on the left side of the screen — did a good job bouncing back and forth between team and individual scores, showing how many holes remaining there were and what number shot a player was on at a particular hole. And unlike on the LIV tour, there is no guaranteed money on the PGA Tour. As for the telecast, the production was relatively slick, particularly given the short amount of time and it being streamed only online. Even as Kevin Na and Talor Gooch earlier this week comically tried to explain that one of the biggest appeals of joining the circuit was the shotgun start because it eliminates being on the wrong side of a PGA Tour draw, there were ample reminders throughout the broadcast of the first round what’s at stake financially. Splashy black and highlighter-green graphics showed just what everyone is playing for: a $20 million purse for individual players, with $4 million to the winner and $120,000 for last place. There’s the team concept and the wacky team names and graphics.

'I come to work to play golf and that's my job at the end of the day. I've also seen the good golf has done throughout history, and I believe LIV Golf is going to do a lot of good for the game.' The vastly unpopular LIV Golf Invitational Series begins today at Centurion Club in St Albans. Some of the great names in golf are there, taking the cash on offer from the Saudi-backed organisers turning away from their respective tours. The £20m prizefund for this week sees around £3.2m go to the winner and £96,000 to whoever finishes last. We’ve been given releases by the PGA Tour to play there and the European Tour have held events there. There are 48 players in the field, and it's a 54-hole event. Like it or not, it is here and it is here to stay... Rolls a putt right down the middle of the hole from 20 feet and he moves back to even par. Because this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reshape how the PGA Tour operates. I am proud, I am proud for the game of golf.' Awful, awful tee shot on the seventh, dragging his shot right, into the trees and out of bounds. He still has 14 holes left to play - as do the rest of the field, obviously.
