Anyone know what the actual deal is for the TV coverage.

Global feed goes live at 8pm our time. For whatever reason they just don't want it wall to wall all day.
I read today that it was only in 2002 that the whole 18 from the last day were shown.

Two of them I tried explaining it to just weren't having it. Asked if I worked for Sky.

It was no different when it was BBC etc - they only show the pictures given to them by the host broadcaster and that’s determined by the Masters

Hence Sky doing what they like with The Open.

Would be interesting to know the reasoning behind it.
I’m not sure what it actually achieves.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Yeah it’s not a Sky issue - it’s Masters Committee issue

And they aren't likely to change the live amount shown. They like haveing that control

I'm going to go with tradition or some other nonsense. The Masters app is brilliant though, can see every shot on there just after it's been hit, but who can be arsed with that.

Drives traffic to the Masters app maybe?

It was only a few years back we got any live feeds for the selected groups and Amen Corner or it really was 8.00pm UK time

Fairway metal.

 

[inc0gnito]

Does anyone actually live like this and is so, why?

I thought only divorced people played golf

 

[rulie]

Fairway metal.

Bugs me too. I find it interesting that the announcers say "fairway metal" but then further clarify by calling it a "three wood".

 

[BubbaP]

Guess there will be players who've never seen wooden wood.
With benefit of hindsight irons & woods were rubbish names
