Heinz, cmon, we all like to see woods, but micko and Scott were eve rd 6th from hole 9 to 16.
|

By:
its not about showing just golf shots. People complained about showing woods and ww in the scoring hut, i enjoyed that.
its all part of the atmosphere |
|
By:
it is important to show players not playing shots

11 glorious hours a day coverage, and you guys still moan about it ?
Unbelievable Jeff !  |

By:
i like to see them on the driving range, on the putting green, the spains(names just gone) and girlfriend walking
hand in hand to the clubhouse etc |

Heinz, your love in with the BBC defies logic.
You were probably one of Hi tlers advisors in 1941 who agreed with him that Stalingrad had to be taken whatever the cost.  |

Turn off the Tele AberMOANia, and go for a long walk of a short pier. Give us all an afternoon free from your incessant gurning !!!    |

I dont know how anyone who bets on golf can be "loving" the "live" coverage?.
Heinz, you are speaking shyte. Away and open your box set of Neil Lennon interviews. |

Heinz beanz was enjoying the coverage on RTE I reckon so it didn't affect him
 |
|
By:
Heinz doesn't watch RTE, he'll be kicked out of east Belfast for that.
|
|
By:
He probably choked on his Ulster Fry there.
|
|
By:
so he did

The BBC coverage would be great if it was the 80s but because we have computers we know that scores are moving up and down minutes before we see them.
It does not take much thought to shoew as many live shots of players within 5 of the lead. I'm sure that yesterday I saw as much of Colsearts as I did of Mahan. |

working class twerps(the majority on here) are not qualified to have an opinion on the BBCs coverage.
You do not have the necessary intellectual or artistic sensibilities to know what constitutes a good programme. Pipe down! |

Love Ken Brown, different class.

Didn't mean that in racist comment, poor from Ken. Should stick to what he's good at.

what is an Ethiopian chicken?

Does Hazel Irvine have a bee in her bonnet about women , glass ceilings , female only golf clubs , high heels on hallowed greens , etc . She seems to be intent on trying to goad the R and A man into saying something which creates news . But thankfully he is too shrewd for her . But I wish she would give over .
Few of us approve of men only clubs , reason initially had something to do with the difficulty of the course and the absence of shorter carries without major reconstruction . But as Peter says , St Andrews has 2 female only clubs , 3 men only clubs , plus the public and the citizens of St Andrews all playing happily on the same links . |

It was all summed up by the garrigus 100+ foot putt on i think the 15th or 16th hole on Friday.... Now its obvious that theyre not going to show live coverage of a player ten over par but dont insult my intelligence by pretending it is live. "is this going in is it....is it..... IS IT?"
|
|
By:
If Hazel Irvine says she is 20 miles South of Edinburgh one more time I will buy a fecking map and send it to her recodred delivery.

i would love to see what they paying alliss and is cronies for this weeks love in.
why do the beeb need so many people to cover any event,be it wimbledon,the golf or even something like glastonbury. every one else is trying to cut back,but they throw money round like theres no tomorrow. This is my main beef about the BBC coverage too The numbers jumping on the gravy train That fair haired young man who contributes absolutely fook all poncing about making unfunny and annoying comments Also I noticed the item they did on picking litter was done by that short haired asian woman who reads the news on the andrew marr programme What the fook is she doing there and how much is she being paid.A nice little jolly at licence payers expense for her On the positive side I quite liked seeing inside the scorers cabin at the end of play to see the interraction or lack of between woods and westwood Allis comments were quite amusing too. |

By:
What the fook is she doing there
Likes her golf does Naga Munchetty.. And pretty fair at it. Think she won a decent comp down sarf not too long ago. And plays in lots of pro-ams.. |
|
By:
Mark James seems to be taking requests
|
|
By:
Hmmm
Often wondered what she did during the week... |
|
By:
Reads the news then..
I see her as Irvine's replacement sooner rather than later.. |
|
By:
Bloody well hope not !
Certainly ticks the ethnic box though so quite possible |
|
By:
Mark James say if Westwood and Woods had the same colored tops on the commentators might get confused
|
|
By:
Yep, has all the ticks..

Here's my views for what little they're worth!
Firstly, the amount of coverage is awesome! To be able to put the TV on at any time of the day and watch it is good. I personally think they shouldn't concentrate as much on the golfers in the lead. Show them more than others but just not as much. It's like there's nobody else playing! I'm also not interested in anybody's profile. I just wanna see them play. I don't play golf so my opinions are gonna be far different from people that do. For instance, watching a slow motion shot of somebody swinging their club bores the hell out of me, but if I played it I'd probably like it. I think that if people are playing, don't start showing interviews, or people's profiles etc. Show them when there's nothing going on. Anyway, I'm just being picky. I don't want to moan too much cos overall the coverage has been excellent! |

Seen more shots on the driving range / practice green than on the course so far

By:
I wonder whether they'll show Woods having a sh it before he starts
|
|
By:
No coverage of Mickelson/Molinari (tied 8th) since the 2nd hole.
Not 1 shot. Instead we watch Scott and Woods walk down the 1st for 45seconds/1 minutes while Peter Aliss bleats on about f*cking Swallows or some such sh*t. Coverage is the same as is was 30 years ago and has not moved forward in any way shape or form. Woeful. |
|
By:
hoping Mickleson can get within two to get himself onto coverage
|

By:
Who was that twit who said "outrageous, you can't do that" re Westwood's birdie on a par 5 because he was in the bunker off the tee?

By:
Phil Parkin I think he is conker deep on Westy to win
