Not an easy weekend for the PGAT as they have tried to sandwich a 72 hole event into 3 days, and Matt Kuchar doing them no favours by walking off on the 18th so he, and he alone, can finish his round in the morning.

Despite the fact that most people are supposedly not interested in the FedEx I thought it was really good, particularly the last round.

In my opinion your take is a bit skewered. We were watching the St Jude Classic, a stand-alone golf tournament that turned out to be quite interesting.

The fact that it is a part of a series called the FedEx is neither here nor there. Anyone can choose to ignore this aspect of it (Nick Dougherty aside) which is what I do. All the announcers are busting a gut trying to convince us that the FedEx is exciting, but they are flogging a dead horse, it isn't, and therefore it is quite easy to tune out.

It's even easier if you mute the sound 😁

Yes, you are right. Must admit I was using the FedEx badge a bit loosely. Someone else on the forum implied most people are not interested in watching golf post majors. I don't agree as most of the world's top players are still fighting it out and the St Jude was certainly a good one.

Thought it as a great last round and I will always watch a good contest irrespective of what it is so the Fedex bit an irrelevance to me
