Actually disappointed with Sky taking up the US live coverage. much as I like watching the golf, the US coverage is poor to say the least. Way too many pauses in play, obviously when the yanks cut to commercial, they only tend to focus on and around the greens, and then only on the top 10 in the comp. Not to mention the long wait as transmission changes between US TV channels...... what's that all about? Very poor show. I gave up Setanta for all of the above reasons, but was happy because I always had Golf Night to fall back on.......

Agreed, however, don't you think Di is looking perky though? Keeps me going during the switch in transmission!!!! The two guys who commentate are also on the TW pga tour computer game.

I dont mind the breaks between live coverage so much when they have Mark Roe or Dennis Pugh doing some interesting swing stuff but the last couple of nights it was John E Stepheson (??) who is terrible. Who is he???

Morgan isn't it? He of bumpkin accent, tie on with top button undone (tut tut) and slouched in the clearly too small presenters chair??

He was terrible. I couldn't believe they were using him.
