I THINK it says outright live because the event had already started when you placed your bet, may be totally wrong there tho

I think you must've placed your bet when there were 2 markets in play. Usually you place a bet before the event or during the event. The bookies have a market for each and when the golf (in your case ) actually starts they will introduce an inplay market, where the odds change literally everytime a player hits the ball. The Live markets have a time delay, usually 5-10 seconds, so they can verify the odds are bang upto date.

For us punters the 2 markets are the same thing basically, for some reason the bookies keep harping on about their live markets, presumably it must cost them alot of money and resourses to validate upto date live scores e.g American basketball, Australian swimming and numerous other things they want us to bet on. 

If anybody thinks this could be something entirely different then please correct me
