The LIV Golf London began on Friday, July 7, with the flash mob dance, leaving everyone who was watching speechless.

LIV Golf London commenced on Friday, and the third and final round will take place on Sunday, July 9, at the Centurion Club near Hemel Hempstead, England.

The start of the ninth event on the LIV Golf League 2023 schedule was different than usual. Before the golfers teed off, a flash mob broke out dancing. It was quite an unusual sight for everyone, considering flash mobs are a trend of the past. Flash mobs were quite popular in the 2000s and early 2010s but faded away with time.

LIV Golf League's editorial director, Mike McAllister, shared the video of the Flash Mob dancing to LMFAO's song 'Party Rock Anthem'.

The reaction from fans to London's flash mob was quite mixed. While there were a few fans who applauded the move, most of them were critical of it, calling it a forgotten and finished trend.
