The tourism industry loves it, the South Australian premier loves it, and the sports fans of Australia have voted with their feet.

On a mild April afternoon in 2022, day three of LIV Adelaide at The Grange, the enigmatic, cosmopolitan final group of Talor Gooch, Pat Perez and Charl Schwartzel were followed down the 18th fairway by what looked like everybody on the property.

We flocked to see them in our Summer of Golf, but are the Rippers Australia's golf team?
In the film Master And Commander, Russell Crowe says of HMS Surprise, “Though we be on the far side of the world, this ship is our home. This ship, is England.” At Royal Queensland and Kingston Heath, Ripper GC merchandise was about. But whether captain Cam Smith and his team is "Australia", floating around the world, taking prizes, representative of we the greater Australian sports-watching punterati, remains to be seen.

Ripper! Aussie team downs South Africans in raucous LIV Adelaide play-off
We’re at The Grange GC for the LIV league's first teams play-off and the crowds line the 18th fairway 20-deep all the way down its 345 metres.

There are people in the trees.
