With its concerts, fan activities and, most importantly, star power, golf\u2019s youngest tour is on a mission to attract a crowd and build a fanbase.<\/p>\n<p>Since its inception three years ago, LIV Golf has played at venues across the world in hopes of establishing itself through ticket sales and viewership.

It did so just a week after LIV Indianapolis pulled in a record 60,000 people.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>LIV Michigan\u2019s efforts spanned from attracting golf fans to general sports fans to non-sports people alike. The shotgun start, which they use at all tournaments, significantly reduces the length of each day of the tournament, down to about four hours, which is more akin to other sporting events.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-gray-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5019ea89378ac241ff3c7428b13cf6ef\" style=\"font-size:13px\">Phil Mickelson, LIV Golf Team Championship competitor, watches the golf ball roll across the green after his putt Saturday afternoon. <em>Holly Burkhart\/DAILY.<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/store.pub.umich.edu\/michigan-daily-buy-this-photo\/\">Buy this photo.<\/a> Paul Casey, LIV Golf Team Championship competitor, chips the golf ball Sunday afternoon. <em>Holly Burkhart\/DAILY.<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/store.pub.umich.edu\/michigan-daily-buy-this-photo\/\">Buy this photo.<\/a> LIV Golf Team Championship competitor Bubba Watson sinks a putt Sunday afternoon. <em>Holly Burkhart\/DAILY.<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/store.pub.umich.edu\/michigan-daily-buy-this-photo\/\">Buy this photo.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Similar to other professional sporting events, and unlike typical golf tournaments, the tournament presented itself as a more upbeat, family-friendly environment with music playing on the tee boxes and dedicated zones for games and activities for children.

Part of it is achieved through an attempt to revolutionize the sport with regular events, but the bulk of it is through star power.
