A year after its debut event, the LIV Golf League is back in London for its ninth event of the season at the Centurion Golf Club.
It’s the second event in as many weeks for the circuit funded by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, as Talor Gooch took home the title last week in Spain for his third win in the last five LIV tournaments.
Before the golf got underway Friday, an interesting thing happened on the first tee.
A flash mob.
Yes, a flash mob broke out and as you’d expect, Golf Twitter reacted quickly.
Here are some of the best responses from the latest LIV Golf antic.
Where's Brooks?
The fact that we don't have a camera on Brooks Koepka's face as this was going on was just an enormous content miss by the liv crew https://t.co/wzUYr4Q4yo

Time to head home
Flash mobs? Bad. Flash mobs on a golf course featuring a song that hasn't been cool for like 10 years? I might just go home https://t.co/K0R4QOV2rP
