LEFTIES UNITE!!!
Well, I'm 8-2 so far. Lefty and Rickie will be a great one to watch so chances are GC won't show it, if todays coverage is anything to go by.

You mean the tournament he shot 75 on Sunday and choked away a lead? Seems to be right in line with what he is doing still.
There's always upsets in this event. The coverage was terrible. I saw Lee Westwood tweet something along the lines of:
Well, in case you were wondering I won my match 3/2. Thanks Golf Channel.
And before anyone wants to jump on poor old Lee, Paul Azinger was giving the Golf Channel hell yesterday.
tapatalk: even available for lefties!
People should really let the Golf Channel know their coverage just sucks. I did yesterday. "Contact Us" on their website. I ask them if they had any clue who the top golfers in the world were and then answered for them saying NO because they werent showing them on the coverage.
Well, it's certainly a catch 22 for the networks I'm sure. It is Tiger Woods, even if it's the Sean O'Hair version of Tiger Woods.
Watching the Golf Channel this morning, these guys are breaking Tiger down!
True TC, but it doesn't explain the crap coverage in the morning BEFORE TW was even scheduled to tee off. Didn't see McDowell until they interviewed him after his win, didn't show any of Watsons match, It was like Poulter was the only golfer on the course in the morning and TW was the only one in the afternoon.
I can understand to a degree the way the channel cover this....but does having Tiger on the screen all the time encourage extra viewership? Do people change channel when they cover someone else for a minute?
I agree 1000%. But have you met his die hard fans? A little touchy on some topics, so if they do miss a shot, you just never know.
I'm getting sick of Tiger cam.

Been that way for 15 years.
But because the casual fan only watches golf when he is playing, that is who they cater to. Real golf fans know that there are better players out there, but the networks can't get past that. He WAS their bread and butter for so long it's hard to not show every move he makes.
I agree yoccos. Tw means ratings, always has. Westwood does not right now, maybe that will change if he played more events here, but he doesn't. And if you watch coverage of his home tour, he is covered constantly.

its only because in most European countries he is seen as having nice teeth. they also get free dental work done there. Still want a government health care system?
Hey! I'm still here man, that hurts. :wink:
