To this day I can't understand how there's any major not broadcast in its entirety with today's technology and platforms

Second day in a a row with no TV coverage of the tournament leader(s). Good job, good effort.
Agreed. It's lame that they dont have a full coverage broadcast on PGA.com. Only the two featured groups.

People going way low, then you have Bubba at +7 on the day.

It's hard to believe the PGA could get lower than fourth-best major, but congrats to the PGA, they've done it. The Tour Championship is better challenged (tougher course) and produced than the PGA.

Reminds me of the fcking John Deere Classic

It's Friday at noon. You think TNT is gonna bump NCIS reruns for live Major coverage? Would be suicide.

I certainly agree with you, however, they pretty much show the Open Championship in it's entirety.

Speith's full swing and putting stroke are so yippy looking.
I've always thought this with respect to his full swing. It's not one I would emulate.

Rahm stepped on his ball accidentally because he couldn't see it in the rough. Has to take a penalty stroke

Tough break. The 8th hole has been entertaining to watch. Rahm almost cut that corner.

Did he kick his bag, throw his club, and cuss at his caddie afterwards?

Between him and Spieth, there's plenty of whining going on in that group

He's doing his usual late season swoon. I'm worried about him and Speith dragging the Ryder Cup team down. Both guys are playing poor right now.

Nope. He complained a little bit that he didn't think it moved, but he actually handled it pretty well. Took his medicine and advanced it up the fairway. Got up and down for a par 5.

I don't mind an "easy" major. I like to see what these guys can do on a soft course. I don't like it every major but I've gotten tired of the baked out courses we've seen lately. I like to watch target golf every now and then.

I'm not usually one to complain about coverage, but TNT is having some trouble at the start, today.

Unless it is my stream?

I prefer this to the Mike Davis Open.

All that thumb twitching before he pulls the trigger, and then his putting stroke is even worse. Today especially on the short ones he had a huge delay AFTER his forward press to start his stroke.

Finau has started with five straight birdies.

These Tiger/Rory/JT crowds are completely nuts. 5 or 6 deep lining the entire hole.

Tiger rams one in the center on 2. -1 for the tourney. That stroke and walk in looked like the Tiger of old.

I realize why I'm hating this course...it reminds me of the same generic, boring parkland country club course we see nearly every f'ing week on tour. You would hope a major trying to get a unique identity would find to do something different.

I like to think if I ever make 5 straight birdies, I too will triple the next.

TNT shows a lot of commercials

I think we came back from break, saw five shots, then another commercial.

Been a huge fan of tiger for my entire life and I'm still amazed at the crowds he brings. People go NUTS for this guy. Love it

They really do. And spend 30 seconds showing replay and reaction to Tiger's last shot before going to the break

Hasn't been as bad as the British open final round. I know they were trying to get them all out of the way so they could play the last few holes commercial free, but damn. There was a commercial break every 5 minutes for about 3 hours straight

CBS golf coverage is seriously the ****ing worst. They've barely showed any golfers not named Woods, Thomas, or McIlroy.

Don't get me wrong i'm a big Tiger / Thomas / Rory fan but this is ridiculous.

It's nice of TNT to show us Tiger and crew waiting on the 4th tee instead of ANY shots of Finau...

Tiger birdies 3, but he'll be giving a glove to a fan after his drive on 4

Ben Kern, formerly of Diamondback in Abilene and moving to Georgetown Country Club, birdied 18 to put himself right on the current cut line.

Very nice shot by Big Cat after the terrible tee shot on 4.
