After being at Gleneagles the last 2 days I'm struggling to get into an excited mood watching the TV coverage. I've not been to many "big" golf tournaments and on the run-up to this I've been told by a lot of people that "being there on the day isn't all that good as you never know what's really happening and you miss a lot of the good golf being played" and similar other comments. Well those people are all completely wrong. Watching on the TV is nothing like being there. Really wish I'd listened to myself now and bought some weekend tickets too. Mrs probably would have killed me though...
How much do you get to actually see? I was saying to the Mrs that I'd prefer to watch it on TV as if you are there and crowds are 10 deep then surely you can't actually see that much golf? But appreciate the atmosphere will be on a different level if you are there. What made it so special to be there?
