............according to Notah Begay. Not surprising at all.

I thought the masters was incredible without him. Didn't have to watch him playing every shot while 10 strokes back and got to watch a lot of good golf from a lot of guys we wouldn't have seen on tv if tiger was there.
quote:Completely agree. It's not the same without Tiger. Even the wife (who despises Tiger for obvious reasons) said something didn't feel the same about the Sunday coverage. I didn't have the guts to say it was because she secretly missed [bashing on] the Tiger coverage.
The coverage Sunday was awful. They showed the final group for about 80 percent of the time, the second to lat group for about 15 percent, and the last 5 percent was spread among other golfers. We didn't see a lot of golf from a lot of different guys. We saw a lot of Bubba and Jordan talking to their caddies.

This past Sunday it seemed like "Who's going to win, Bubba or Spieth" and no attention was paid to the rest of the field...

This year's Masters was a bleak foreshadowing of what is to come.

Couldn't disagree more. Was a golf fan long before Tiger and will be long after, and the game will go on just fine too. I don't give a **** about network ratings. In fact, I wouldn't mind less golfers. Easier to get a tee time and less hackers to get in my way.
