That was cool, they used some type of overlay to darken the green surface and show how it slopes

Tacoma Local here, checking in to report that traffic is already a poo poo show in University Place because there is only 1 road in and 1 road out of Chambers. Back to DJExile in the tower

Back to DJExile in the tower The parking & shuttles were pretty easy even though I had to drive to Puyallup. Shuttle took 45 mins to the course. Not sure why they didn't use Tacoma Dome or Cheney Stadium as bus stops much closer to the course. There weren't many lots at the course so not sure where people are going. But I guess people are getting there and realizing they cant park and have to go back.

I like how he said, "My ball was in a rake crease!" in the bunker he found off the tee shot earlier on the hole.

Fox doesn't have a leaderboard, is weird with their mics (jesus Christ, I think I've heard the same bird chirping so many times it's gotta be fake) and has boring as gently caress commentators. Bring back NBC, even if it means Johnny Miller again.

It's kind of a shame to see Bubba going back to his old ways. He was a notorious hot-head when he first showed up on tour and seemed to have calmed down over the last year or two.

15-year-old Cole Hammer (or Hammel, Hamlin according to Buck and Norman) losing it on the back. 5 over in the last 4. Tiger seems to just mindlessly bash balls on the range. I predict a 77.

Literally everything about this coverage sucks rear end except for the amount of pro-tracers they have up and running. I hope in a few years that tech is a lot cheaper and more mobile because I'd love seeing it on more approach shots too.

Tiger splits the fairway with a driver on the 1st. He might actually put up a decent round. edit: HAHAHA I spoke too soon. Bailed right with a 6 iron and he's in the poo poo. Josh Lyman fucked around with this message at 22:35 on Jun 18, 2015 |

Woods, Fowler, and Oosthuizen are falling loving apart, this is incredible. For the love of god, stop trying to pound a drive up and just hit a 3-wood. This feels like basic course management.

Seriously. If you were to only watch this group play today, you'd think this is the most difficult golf course on the planet. I'm watching the main TV coverage and Tiger's featured group at the same time, and the commentary across the board is just absurdly bad. They're constantly loving up calls and the score/shot overlays are frequently wrong. Fine work Fox!

Didn't Fox cover men's golf tournaments before? I know this is their first major, but this can't be their first golf tournament.

All I want on every hole is: player, distance, par, and current shot if they are in play. I don't need a static leaderboard on the screen. This isn't the NFL/MLB. I Have no idea what hole they are on unless someone says it which is so annoying.

It'd also be nice if when they do show the overlay with what number shot the player is hitting that the number is correct. On the last hole, the overlay showed shot #2 for both Ricky and Oosthuizen when it was the third shot for both of them.

Apparently Fox and Joe Buck et al. covered the USGA 4-Ball Championship earlier this year as sort of a test run. Reports from people who watched it indicate it was hilariously bad.
