I watched a bit of golf on telly last week. Two rounds with Jason Day, Dustin Johnson and Tiger Woods in the Farmers Insurance thing? I don’t know anything about tournament golf, the history or any of the players really as I’ve not been playing long. It surprised me how many fairways they missed and how many putts sailed by the hole. I wasn’t expecting that really as they were billed as the feature group or whatever. Also, it shocked me how long they took to play their shots. Especially Jason Day. Closing his eyes and visualising the shot etc. It was pretty dull to be honest. Also they seemed quite cocky which made it harder to enjoy. Not all of them. Phil Mickelson looked like he was just enjoying playing. He wasn’t dressed in anything crazy and didn’t look like he was going to disappear up his own backside. How can a sport you enjoy playing be so hard to watch?
