LIV Golf launched its first “transfer window” this season, an initiative aimed at bringing the circuit closer to how other sports leagues operate. Two weeks into the four-week duration of the “window”, no trade has taken place.

This did not go unnoticed by fans, who had varied reactions on social media. Most of the reactions claimed that an initiative like the “transfer window” launched by LIV Golf is irrelevant in the context of professional golf.

A user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote:

“This is a farce.”

Another user sarcastically commented on the situation by posting:

“Blockbuster”

Here are a few other reactions from X:

“Nobody cares. Even liv doesn’t care,” one fan posted.
“No one cares. Golf is not a sport that trades matter. One week someone plays good one week someone plays bad,” another fan shared.
“Man, I’ve been on pins and needles for weeks about this…said no one ever!” another fan posted.
“LIV players don’t even care. So of course no one else will,” another user wrote.

During the offseason in 2023, LIV Golf had a transfer window where several changes took place. The most talked about was that of the season’s individual champion, Talor Gooch, who was traded by his former team RangeGoats GC to Brooks Koepka’s Smash GC in exchange for Matt Wolff.
