The USGA needs to have their butts kick for this amateur move. Fox is a joke..And Joe Buck is WAY overrated as an announcer in all sports...

The online is okay. If nothing else I think that course looks better on my computer than it does on my big screen. On TV it looks like a dried out cow pasture. My burn out front yard in August looks greener than that grass does.

It's pretty bad and though Holly Sonders use to work on the Golf Channel can she ask any serious questions about how the Pros played the course. It really seems like Amateur hour with the coverage. This is the way it works right now sports sell themselves to the highest bidder. They are more interested than the money than how the event is covered on TV.

This has got to be the least fan friendly course that I've ever seen. Your much better watching it on TV or online because the galleries have to stand a mile away from the golfers.

I can't comprehend those who choose golf the same way they probably don't understand why some of us choose tennis.

The way I see it...

Tennis blows golf away the same way Hockey blows Soccer away by leaps & bounds...

pretty bad..

big tits asked some pretty stupid questions. curt menafee has never set foot on a golf course before and joe buck is awful. they are all trying way to hard ..

one thing i do like, they seem to have the tracer on a lot of shots. CBS only ever seems to have it on 1 or 2 holes.

With a telescope you can watch all 18 at the same spot

I've played both games. I used to play a lot of tennis, and I like the game. But the skill and strategies along with the different playing surfaces and courses make golf a much more interesting game to watch. Especially if you play the game and understand how incredibly difficult it is to play.

Something is wrong in the makeup or lighting on Holly..... cause she is far hotter than she looks on here.

And..... The "green complexes" on this course are tricked up shit. No amount of length matters to these players...... but the tricked up crap is excessive.

Did I see an update that CHARLES DAVIS was "sideline reporting?"

Will keep watching to hear him try and talk about golf.
