Golf Random Irritations

[SteveJay]

"Patrons" is just one of very many contrived Masters traditions.

And "the property" seems to following up in close second........its a bloody golf course, why not say it how it is

Faldo and McGinley "commentating" at the same time. Cannot think of 2 worse people in tandem. Faldo gives very few compliments and McGinley, no comment.

McGinley and Roe should be tied in a dinghy and set afloat on the Savannah River until nature takes it course. Or shot

The constant year after year moaning and whining about the Golf commentry at The Masters and all other Major’s.

Tip: Use the mute button or turn the volume down.

Or how about a radical solution and Sky pick from a plethora of decent talent and utilise people that are relevant to the modern game and not someone like Roe who seems to have made his name more as a coach than he ever did with his career and McGinley who is only employed because of the RC

Some people just like being professional moaners

I am watching/ also reading now. Bored. Patrons. It would be interesting to know how many times it is mentioned. They are spectators. If a commentator says spectators do they get the electric chair?

They get barred from returning. The Masters committee are all powerful, upset them and you are out, never to return. Hence the tosh that gets spoken each year.

Or even more radical, if you’re that bothered contact Sky or use your mute button, or, shock horror! Watch the golf, you moan about Roe and McGinley at every event.

Faldo drives me bonkers, he might have been a good golfer but he comes across as a massive knob. He is incapable of saying anything without an air of "I could've done much better"

This one is irritating too, all the Sky presenters obviously warned about what phrases to use. McGinley is a fellow Irish man but he's turning more American by the week. Over the years he was always spoken about positively around Ireland as a lovely man but the Ryder cup seems to have gone to his head or something.

But aren't you saying that you could do it better........................

Hiatus or not, but a simple search of the words “Mark Roe” by member HomerJSimpson shows the results of you whining about him for quite a few years.

Well Sky haven't got the message yet clearly! Do they still have an account on this forum or...?

I know it’s an old hackneyed irritation, but who on earth ever says, with the exception of golf commentators, fairway metal or 3 metal?
If you Google Ping 3 metal you are taken to a list of fairway woods - on a rare occurrence you might get Taylormade ‘3 Fairway’ but the word metal is not used.
No one I know uses the term, so why do commentators?

 

[Backache]

Folk who call the patrons at the Masters spectators.
It's unbecoming and deeply disrespectful of a much lived tradition.
